p.shilton Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 Have been wondering what position Jamie Ward actually plays, is he a left midfielder or striker? I am sure he was billed as a striker when he first arrived but has been spoken of as more of a midfielder since. He has been much less attacking in recent weeks and frequently back with the left back. On TID it says that he is a striker. A striker that has scored 4 in 33 games!

Boycie Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 I'd like to see him play the commons role. (cue the jokes) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 He's a striker that's being played left midfield, many on here will tell you he's not a striker, he's too small and all that but he is a striker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uttoxram75 Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 He's a player who can play striker or wide midfield. He's not Robin van Percy and he's not Ryan Giggs. Hope this helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dimmu Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 I'd prefer forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
p.shilton Posted February 17, 2012 Author Share Posted February 17, 2012 I'd prefer Van Persie. I reckon he could do a job at CF- has he ever ended up playing there for us during an in-game reshuffle or does Clough think that Barker is a better option?

Deano Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 Out strikers playing up there have not been cutting it lately. Seems a good time to try Ward there (or dare I suggest Maguire?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
p.shilton Posted February 17, 2012 Author Share Posted February 17, 2012 Id give Wardy a go, or Maguire- even Miles at this rate! I don't particularly rate Davies as a CF to be honest and I definitely don't see Tyson as the answer. Whilst I can see that Ball has some promise I don't see what the fuss is about with him either.

McRamFan Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 We have a very light weight front line at the moment, as Tyson still gaining match fitness, Ball gaining experiance, SD coming back from that horrific injury is going to take time to get confidence back, and Theo was never intended to be playing as much as he is due to our normal situation with injuries. The age of the squad is great insofar as they can grow into a well run squad, however you are always going to get good, bad and indifferent performances as they come together.

p.shilton Posted February 17, 2012 Author Share Posted February 17, 2012 I realise that we can't expect it all to gel straight away but expecting Tyson to be a CF just because he was at the beginning of his career is ridiculous. Ball is nowhere near good enough to be starting as CF week in week out. Davies is basically a bulked up winger who had a good start to the season but would have scored twice as many if he was an actual CF and Theo is far too raw. This leaves Wardie who may or may not be effective and Maguire who has had 1 good game and 1 poor game. They both need to be given a chance but something needs to change as we are not scoring Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DcFc Dyycheee Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 Left mid, easy. But he does need to stop shooting from 50 yards out all the time... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
p.shilton Posted February 17, 2012 Author Share Posted February 17, 2012 at least someone is shooting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
randombc Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 I'd prefer Van Persie. I reckon he could do a job at CF- has he ever ended up playing there for us during an in-game reshuffle or does Clough think that Barker is a better option? Too lazy for clough. Personally, I think Ward has more of a presence on the wing, he seems a bit lost upfront, especially with our hoof ball! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
curb Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 I can't imagine Tyson ever scoring a goal for us (said in the hope that he'll prove me wrong and bag a hat-trick tomoz) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
