Anag Ram Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 I think every team should go out onto the pitch with a distinct plan but the players should always be adaptable. A good team instinctively knows how to support team mates in attack and defence. Someone told to anchor the midfield should not feel unable to run into an obvious gap, and a team mate should drop back to accommodate. I think Clough’s comments were meant to imply that football is a pretty simple game and that players aren’t robots or simpletons who need to be told what to do in every situation. Good teamwork is every bit as important as tactics. Ellafella, Old Spalding Ram and RadioactiveWaste 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good teamwork is every bit as important as tactics. And that is part of our problem, the players often don't seem to know where to expect their team-mates to be, how can we expect good teamwork?

SSD Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 More of the same from Tuesday. I was really pleased with how we played and the goals were brilliant. Hopefully this will show the manager that the team can play some more football on the grass. Had the athleticism which PW is looking for plus the better possession based style. I hope we can build on it and not go back to old habits. DavesaRam, The Scarlet Pimpernel and Blondest Goat 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dodger37 Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 (edited) Cant be arsed fighting online with Carlisle to get a ticket as im registered with Derby as iv had tickets for pride park over the years.

Old Spalding Ram Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 We’re going up North with a squad of Wildsmith, Vickers, Wilson, Nyambe, Nelson, Cashin, Forsyth, Bradley, Elder, Smith, Embleton, Fornah, Sibley, Barkhuizen, Mendez - Laing, Waghorn, Washington & Collins to take on a team that’s won one match and would be in the relegation places if it wasn’t for points reductions and having played a game more. For me, with that squad a point is a minimum return. With Bird, John -Jules, Ward, Thompson & Hourihane back within the next few weeks to strengthen the squad I’m fully expecting making the play offs as a minimum and anything less than that as failure. Cambridge at home next, then six winnable matches in October. ………………..the charge up this abject league should begin tomorrow.

Sorry but ‘winnable’ , you mean teams that you think we should destroy because they are not worthy? Am I being too harsh on your comment. I’m on my third pint so forgive me if so.

Westcumbrianram Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 Can't get any tickets, it's bloody frustrating. My closest game of the season (40 minutes) and I can't go.
