S36 OWL Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 Do we go with 5 at the back? Is it wise to defend deep? Shall we go for it and risk an open game of football? Or just hope Westwood has an inspired game? Park the bus and pray Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orlando_Trustful Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 We're 10/1 to beat Bournemouth. Unbelievable odds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PortlandOwl Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 Easier said than done but get at them, don't allow them to play.Like we did the other week against Middlesbrough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patient zero Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 we're 12/1 at some bookies Sign Steve Evans as a goalkeeper an get him to lay down on the goalline, should block off at least half of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matthefish2002 Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 Play 5 in midfielder and defend deep, time wasting tactics and slow the game down. Not very romantic I know but that what I would do if in charge. I know many people will say play an open game and take the game to them but I do not think we have the player to do that. Some of my friends will say play attacking and then when we lose 5-0 moan that we were far too open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
owls about that Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 Leeds done double over them this season, no reason why we cant go there and have a go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owl Capone Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 For me pressing them high up the pitch and hopefully getting a 2nd ball for Lavery, Bus or Maguire all with a bit of pace to pop one in. I would also have Semedo and Melo in front of back 4. No reason we cant get a result, but like others have said. Hard work, confidence on the ball and a real desire to get something Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dorian gray Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 We have nothing to lose, why don't we actually go there and attack with the freedom we have, all the pressure is on them! We might lose (as many other teams have there this year) but would rather do it having a go, rather than defending. Time for Gray to show he can put an attacking team out IMO time and place... NOT the... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
since59owe Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 Its obvious! Put up a Portuguese wall of Melo and Semedo in front of our back four! Yep Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sultan_Pepper Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 The same way we stopped Middlesborough and Brentford. We're better against teams that open up, have been for a long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steelcityowlsfan Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 (edited) Have at least 3 in the middle either 4-3-3 or 4-5-1 Edited April 16, 2015 by steelcityowlsfan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parsons Cross Owl Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 Can we have numbers on the front of our shirts so they think we are attacking? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrEdwards Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 With Helan being the only 'fit' (doesn't look it) LB we may be buggered. But playing Melo and Hutch Should break up their play. Westwood Buxton Lees Zayatte Helan Melo Hutchinson Lavery McGugan Isgrove Nuhiu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The only way is S6 Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 Bournemouth chairman might just have helped us a bit with this match. Admitting to huge amounts of nerves & basically papping himself in case they feck it up! Team captain says the players have to 'devote their lives' to promotion for the next 2 weeks. Nowt like piling the pressure on yourselves is there? We turn up, nice & relaxed, solid at the back & hopefully they underperform with the weight of expectation on their backs.

Orlando_Trustful Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 I can't see any of the top 4 winning all their remaining games (I know Norwich have to play M'Boro tomorrow). The pressure is on them massively and the Championship is a wickedly inconsistent league. I can see us beating either Bournemouth or Watford.

wednesdaywizard Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 I'd quite like to see Bournemouth go up and do well in the premiership. it'd be a shame if they became whipping boys in the league. Nice pay day for them either way! I never want to see Wednesday lose though so I'm hoping we can (somehow) pull a rabbit out of the hat. I can see it being high scoring. 3-2 one way or another. Actually, when did we last score 2 in a game? ignore me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest The Horse Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 Reports are that although they have won, they have been less than convincing in the last two games and nerves are getting to them. Let's go down there nice and relaxed and take the game to them. Watch them squirm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
