Carlos getting stick from 75% of fans for not playing FF left, then when he explains why he doesn't, Carlos is at fault!? I think the issue is that Carlos is kowtowing to a player, having declared earlier in the summer that he was wanting to use him on the left wing. It makes Nando look like a petulant brat and Carlos look weak. Not good really. Edited August 6, 2017 by SiJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beholder Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 Waddle didn't track back and he played on the wing. It's only really an issue if you have fullbacks who get forward all the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Carlos isn't playing FF out wide just because he doesn't want to then yes he does need to take some blame. After all he's picking a team to win games not to keep FF happy.

sMacLean Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 Feels like a season is needed to iron out all the issues whether it be Carlos, players or on the business side.Maybe advanced ourselves too quick but a lot is clearly not right. Look like a club that's totally undercooked for promotion, certainly via the top 2. Forestieri and Carlos should both have gone in the summer.

Holmowl Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 This will turn out for the best. It's a shame we wasted 3 points to bring this into the open, but sell him, play two strikers from Winnall, Hooper, Fletch and Rhodes all season, and Fessi can watch his ex-colleagues next August playing in the Prem. Carlos ruins the team putting FF striker. With the temptation gone we will be a better team, and I suspect a far better dressing-room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BarnsleyOwl96 Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 So if ff wants to play up top only then how the heck can we fit everyone in? Also makes our wide problems even worse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaffer's speaking some right pants... Oh I thought you meant the whole story was false, not just the Forestieri bit. I've said it many times that Carlos is too much of an open book with the press. There's a fine line between trying to keep both fans and players happy. This weekend he's done neither by all accounts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUMBELOWS91 Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 He's perfect for left side of a front 3, possibly with Boyd on the other. Take your pick for the central role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SallyCinnamon Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 What was the point of signing Rhodes and Winnall then if FF is adamant on staying up front? Just shocking stuff from the club. Poor use of resources and poor management. A mess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dezmo Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 It seems to me that FF is frustrated at CC's tactics and constantly asking him to defend/track back when he's played on the left. FF is the most creative player in the team, why isn't he being allowed to express himself and cause problems to othe teams like he was when he first signed? Also so look at the McGeedy interview from a few days ago where he says he wanted to quit playing during his time here and that the difference between being with us and Preston was that Grayson let him and the other attacking players express themselves. Only one person to blame in this and that's CC for both the negative tactics and hanging FF out to dry on the back of a bad result. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only remaining straw I can cling to is that maybe Carlos has made this public in order to try and reassert some power over Forestieri - if he selects him on the left next weekend, then Forestieri has a choice to make: either perform as the Hillsborough faithful know he can, otherwise the end is surely nigh...
