Pulsar Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Just returned home from a brill day out. Was good to see Lewis get decent game time albeit as a result of an unfortunate injury to Sam. I thought LM did okay today but i have just watched the recording of the Football League show and did anyone notice his contribution to our winner? He had earlier taken a yellow for the team with a naughty tug on a Brum player. Sometime after, FF(i think it was him) was scythed down by one of their midfielders in retribution for an unpunished infringement. When Super Barry Bannan won the ball before our winner, he turned away from Fabrini and as he galloped away, the same dirty Brum midfielder started to bear down on BB to bring him down, that is until McGugan spied him in his peripheral and very subtley moved to block his advance on BB allowing 'I want to Marry' Barry to run with the ball before sliding it to FF who put it deliciously on a plate to a gleeful Hooper. Well done Lewis McGugan! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mike312 Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Hope he can keep his place with some commanding performances. A midfield of McGugan, Bannan, McGeady and Wallace. With Lee, Hutchinson, Matias to come in is tasty if McGugan pulls his weight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pulsar Posted February 7, 2016 Author Share Posted February 7, 2016 Think Gary Rowett may have noticed He's not been been spouting off again has he? He was the same on Boxing Day. I wish opposing managers and fans would wise up to the fact that Wednesday are on their way back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beholder Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 Very clever. Fouling a player who was about to foul our player. Can't say I've seen that before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
areNOTwhatTHEYseem Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 It looked like an innocent coming together to me. Incidentally, I have borrowed Arsène Wenger's spectacles for the weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

onlyonedavidhirst Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 Whoops. Anyway, can't see how you can leave Lee out of our best midfield. Plus yesterday showed that we are better with Fernando wide with Hoops and Nuihu up top. But it's nice when we have got such riches in Midfield.

Pulsar Posted February 7, 2016 Author Share Posted February 7, 2016 Plus yesterday showed that we are better with Fernando wide with Hoops and Nuihu up top. This changed the game big time, Birmingham simply couldn't handle us from that moment on. Was a joy to behold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Darkus Owlus Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 (edited) FF pass was perfectly weighted. Wednesday scored loads of goal like that on Championship Manager :) Edited February 7, 2016 by Darkus Owlus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Night-Owl Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 (edited) Very clever. Fouling a player who was about to foul our player. Can't say I've seen that before. I think that's a move taken from American Football or ice hockey. Like protecting the quarter back or the attacker. McGugan must be coached by the same American footballer who coached John Harkes before the 1991 League Cup final at Hyde Park on the League Cup video?

darra Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 Think if the Brum player had just stopped and thrown his arms up instead of going down like he had been shot he might have got the foul. There was contact but it was minimal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RUMBELOWS91 Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 (edited) Interesting that CC went with McGugan rather than Semedo. I think this is recognition that our form changed once we switched to having more of a 'ball player' in that position when Bannan moved centrally. Hutchinson has the ability to take the ball off the back four and do something reasonably productive with it, as obviously does Bannan. Semedo (for all his plus points) does not. CC now sees this as the foundation for our pattern of play now IMO. Edited February 7, 2016 by RUMBELOWS91 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
latemodelchild Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 I noticed it too, nicely done by him I thought. Didn't have tp move much to take him out before he took FF out. We've had stuff like that done to us for years, about time we started giving some back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dukeries Owl Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 I think it's what is called "street savvy", kenny Dalgleish got away with years off shoving his rear end into defenders before rolling them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stocksyuto Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 (edited) Yea i saw it he kinda put his shoulder up to block him. Im loving opposition managers moaning about us they can no longer bang on about long ball tactics anymore so have to get creative Edited February 7, 2016 by stocksyuto Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
