I like that he want's us to get forward and take risks and play at pace and not be safety first. I suppose it's made harder because all that's been coached out of us these past few years. But he should play players in their right positions. At least he seemed aware some of it might have been on him due to how he's setting us up. In which case, change it, Paul!

I can’t see how he could be any worse than Smith at full back and then there would be a more balanced formation. I think Smith is fine at fullback, when he’s just got to hold his position and support NML. The problem is when he’s playing as a wingback, and you’re basically making him bombing forwards and crossing the ball a fundamental part of your attacking strategy.

Ramarena Posted November 27, 2022 Share Posted November 27, 2022 Job done and into the next round. It was a very poor first half, we can all talk about the formation, but the lack of effort and desire was embarrassing, no matter what the formation was. Fortunately we turned it round and altered things a bit tactically and got the job done with an improved performance. On to the big one against Weds!

Steve How Hard? Posted November 27, 2022 Share Posted November 27, 2022 (edited) Plaudits to Sibbers for his offensive display 2nd half but if we are to play him in that position long term, he definitely needs to work on his defensive positional play. A few times in thst 2nd half he was woefully out of position. Luckily Cashin bailed him out a few times. A better class of opposition would exploit this though. Feel bad picking faults after he ultimately won us the game so I'll wind my neck in now. Edited November 27, 2022 by Steve How Hard?

Forsyth at left back but, admittedly, there is a decision to be made at right back. Are we developing Odoroh or do we start from scratch in the January window?

Well only 5 of the starting 11 were here last season, but all 11 had been schooled in the Rosenior way since they arrived. But you're right that picking a midfield 3 of Bird, Hourihane and Thompson will inevitably lead to a turgid defensive performance with no control of the match. With these same personnel and formation, you could at least switch Thommo to LWB and bring Sibley into the middle. And I feel Max Bird is pretty anonymous nowadays, so maybe switch him to RWB and bring Smith into midfield? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mucker1884 Posted November 27, 2022 Share Posted November 27, 2022 (edited) In defence of Mr Warne, he deliberately and purposefully included himself, when he said we as a team did not do a good job first half (I'm paraphrasing, obvs!). He may not come out and shout to the world that he ducked up with his starting line up (and/or formation), but he at least acknowledges his imperfections, as opposed to a full on rant about the players. Personally, I find him rather refreshing. Edited November 27, 2022 by Mucker1884 kash_a_ram_a_ding_dong, Miggins, SKRam and 4 others 2 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is doing an admirable job outside his comfort zone. No complaining, just helping the team out as asked by his manager. When chester/Davies/Roberts are back it will be Fozzy/Roberts out there. He may have deserved criticism for some past performances but to be critical of him today is incredibly negative… ck-, Caerphilly Ram, Steve How Hard? and 1 other 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Collins and McGoldrick can absolutely play together, but you can’t play just those 2. The 3 central midfielders we started today all like to stay in midfield, none of them want to get on the ball and drive forwards, or make runs beyond the ball. And the 2 wingbacks clearly aren’t comfortable playing there. So you’ve got 2 fairly slow forwards, with little service and no support. When you add Dobbin and Barkhuizen to the mix, we look completely different. Ram-Alf and IslandExile 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can still move the ball around quickly, but we didn't do that in the first half. I think that's what he was getting at. It's certainly what I was shouting at the TV.

But it’s considerably harder to do when you have no pace in the team to push them back and create space, no midfielders that want to make runs and break lines, and 2 wingbacks that are clearly not comfortable there. You can’t just say move the ball quicker and expect it to happen, you have to create the conditions to allow it to happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
