I reckon the diamond midfield is Carlos' response to our current injuries rather than his favoured formation in the long term. I imagine we'll see Boyd plenty this season.

Ethel The Tree Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 Another example of Howson's 'stirrer' terminology To 'defend' team selection suggests Carlos is being attacked because of it It's team selection, for crying out loud - it's not just the head coach's prerogative, it's his job Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OwlofOliveGrove Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 I'm a critic of CC's recent tactics but should he really need to justify leaving a player out when he fielded a strong side? Had he left Loovens out at CB when fit, sure we should question it, but leaving Boyd out when our midfield is as strong as it is already? Not that big a deal really, is it?

the third man Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 New signing, a winger played loads of times in the PL last season, did anyone think he was going to play as many matches for us this season as he did last if you did you don't know Carlos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Owls77 Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 Boyd was terrible at Preston but Wallace has been equally poor! I would bring Boyd in on Saturday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulrs Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 Not sure how anyone can look at this and not shake their head in dismay. We have a whole season of dull-as-dishwater performances, scraping into the play-offs but performing abysmally in them, as our antidote to that we sign another 30-year-old tidy hard worker for midfield, play him in all the preseason games, then drop him after one match because we suddenly switched to a formation we've never played before. If if we were only going to make one summer signing you'd hope it was carefully thought through so that he had a significant impact on the team, not become another Abdi style bench warmer. Its just not very good is it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Add him to the list of "do we need him?" purchases Yeah let's make our mind up about a player after one game when the whole team played crap at PNE. I would say playing 36 games in the Premiership last season means he must have something about him. Edited August 18, 2017 by WalthamOwl 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is always defending decisions, tactics and everything else EXCEPT Forestieri. Something tell you CC has an issue with FF which has caused all the problems . He should be able to deal with them behind closed doors and without every man and his dog knowing or assuming they know what has gone on. I'm actually going to defend Carlos on this one. Forestieri or any character like him is a managers nightmare, we've tried the softly softy approach and he still appears to take liberties. FF is unprofessional, in it for himself and always has been wherever he's been. If he feels an injustice, he makes the whole team suffer. The only time he didn't was at the beginning of his first season at Wednesday when he was the marquee signing and the star of the show. All the other names we have got since has threatened that position as king pin and he can't handle it. There's a couple of I's in Forestieri but no team.
