ramone Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 Seeing as Gray seems big on team morale I can't see him changing a think from Brighton. And rightly so Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shandypants Posted August 16, 2014 Author Share Posted August 16, 2014 Why be negative by playing two ball winners? The best way to stop their midfield from dominating with the ball is to simply keep the ball better ourselves so they dont have majority of possession.. If we are playing 3 in middle then it has to be Coke, Lee and Hutch. All three comfortable receiving and passing the ball under pressure. Easier said than done.

Last_Great_Hope Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 Easier said than done. Yes, but playing 442 with Semedo and Hutch sitting (which is what I was replying to) exactly who do we pass to when they break up Derbys play and win the ball? Without genuine pace on the wings, how to we get the ball up front to cause them a problem and give the defence a rest? With difficulty is the answer. A full midfield 5 all comfortable passing and receiving the ball will be much, much more effective than a 4 with to deep lying midfielders to break up play.

I just think it's quite easy to say "keep the ball better ourselves" - there's saying it and then actually doing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just think it's quite easy to say "keep the ball better ourselves" - there's saying it and then actually doing it. Like any game if Football it comes down to the performance of the players, nit the tactics. My point was simply that a midfield of Hutch, Lee and Coke would be more effective than a two of Hutch and Semedo at stopping Derby dominating midfield. In reality, I think that Derby will have the better of the Midfield battle to matter what tactics we play, but the crucial thing is how close to them can we get to make our own chances? Coke Hutch and Lee give us the best chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest scunthorpeowl1996 Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 I saw semedo and llera in meadowhall other month. Llera is a giant and Semedo doesn't look that tall. They were both with their kids and Semedo still had that leg brace on so I thought it was probably best not to bother them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Claudio Tankisco Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 The spunkathon over Derbys midfield is getting rather nauseating. How about we work out testicles off keep the goddamn football and score more goals than them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Owl999 Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 Really think we should start with May if we are serious about winning the game, no good bringing him on after an hour to either chase the game or push for an opening goal . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stoop Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 No room for sentiment If we are going to have 3 in the middle then Lee, semedo and Hutchinson are our best bet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But lets drop him for a bloke that hasn't even laced up his boots in this division yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
