BarnsleyOwl96 Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 FF HAS to play and he must be in the attacking role if 3-5-2 is the way forward with bannan and lee or butterfield behind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Animis Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 1 minute ago, acquiescefc said: Can we? I'd like to think we can - Reach and Hunt as wing backs. Midfield three - Bannan, Lee and Butterfield with Rhodes and Hooper/FF up front. Fletcher on the bench to change formation if required. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SallyCinnamon Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Carlos has said he's sticking with 4-4-2. Managers are stubborn they'll back a failed system until it gets them the sack. The 4-3-3 diamond we were seeing at home gives me some hope, but I wouldn't bank on Carlos going with it. It's too attacking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Night-Owl Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 We've got the players to play 3-5-2, 3-4-3 or 4-3-3 yet we persist with 4-4-2 Which along with the slow tempo and negative defensive style stifles our attacking threat. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue and white Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 We have the perfect squad to play 352 or 433, however I'm sure Carlos will stick with the tried and tested 442. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

s6 owl Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Certainly capable with the squad of players we've got but we won't see that formation used under Carlos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bouncing Owl Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 We will stay 4-4-2, I am reasonably confident. I think we are a 4-3-3 team, Carlos is a 4-3-3 manager but he has turned to this turgid 4-4-2 system with no pace on the wings. I hope this Dutch centre half settles early - looking at the videos of him, he looks to have confident and good distribution which should help our attacks from deep. This has been a problem for us with Lees and Loovens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheriwozgod Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 Think the old christmas tree 3 - 4 - 2 - 1 would suit when everyones fit, something like Westwood Hutchinson Lees Van Aken Hunt Bannan Lee Boyd Forestieri Hooper Fletcher Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fuzzy logics Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 We could but wont, quote from Carlos - '“We try to play more offensive and try to score more goals. We will have a big plan but to play with three at the back is completely out of our mind.”'. The best we can hope or is that the players motivate themselves and step up in a 442. We haven't bought ANYONE to upgrade the 1st team. I'd expect this team against forest; Westwood, Hunt, Lees, Loovens, Pudil, Wallace, Lee (butterfield if lee not fit) Bannan, Reach, Hooper, Rhodes.
