Gray1867 Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 What planet are you on? carlos would still be playing 442, with all his favourites never changing no matter how w**k we’ve played and don’t even mention the youth players!! He’d have Wallace at CB before he gave any of them a chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elyowl1 Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 Our reserves reserves have conceded one goal in four games ,beaten last seasons play off finalists with ease and should have beaten two teams in the top six and you see no change, Try specsavers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s FAR too early to judge in my opinion, but the main thing that stands out for me at the moment is: Carlos with an almost full strength squad - Lost embarrassingly on home soil to our butterest rivals. Jos with entire first team out, and a man down - Battled to a hard earned goalless draw away at the home of our bitterest rivals. One single goal conceded (very unlucky), look dangerous going forward and not lost a game as yet. They may be our butterest rivals but it was only a narrow margarine of victory for them. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swiss Toni Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 So did that make Carlos ‘Alan Irvine the 5th?’ It’s a very confusing scenario you’re talking about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoop Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 He’s done well so far with what he has at his disposal The talk is that he prefers 4-2-3-1 So we could see A back four of Pudil, Lees, Loovens, Hunt Pelepessy and Hutchinson infront Reach, Bannan and FF as a 3 With either Rhodes, Hooper, Joao, Fletcher or Nuhiu up top We’d also have Lee to fit in somewhere to, maybe at the expense of Bannan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HarryPlopper Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 (edited) Yesterday was yet again an entirely different test. 1st game a Sheffield Derby which could have been a really bad introduction. A change of tactics with a very limited squad and a decent away draw. 2nd Game - lower league opposition where we made debut to one, a home debut to another and both in the heart of defence whilst making changes up front which proved to be a good choice all things considered 3rd game - against a guy who we know to up his game against us and who's team are doing very well in the division this season. Again, a creditable draw with yet again another debut in a key area. 4th game, against a side the table says are our equals this season. Still have major injury list and with a 3rd choice strikeforce yet we look very good on that 3-1 victory. Someone doesn't know this game we call football.

Pudil is a winger. We played him at Centre Half. Yes he is a converted fullback, but so was Nigel Worthington - we never played him in the centre.

They’re more comfortable playing the wing back role than Bannan was playing on the wing, but that didn’t stop Carlos playing him there! Jos is playing the formation that best suits the players we currently have available and trying to play them inpositions that suit them, Carlos would never do that. When did Carlos ever give Matias a chance up front, even though he’d played most of his career there. Never Would Carlos have tried the young players at the back, not a chance.

fredmciverslovechild Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 Well he seems to have found two players....Nuhiu and Mathias....who Carlos had locked away and lost the key. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quist Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 Opening post completely wrong in my opinionand compounded by even more worthless pointslater in thread. Does he not realise to try and get a result with these players normal tactics have to be modified to achieve any sort of result. We are left with a rum assortment of players with a clear lack of quality in certain areas. he has achieved a great deal with very little. I would neg the posts but it is actually that bad it does not deserve a rating of any description. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whoosh or not, fishing or not - you are a prize prat zzmdu. Debate the topic; no need for the insults. Maybe I've read out fanbase wrong. I thought we would have wanted an attack minded manager who favoured width & pace. Obviously not. From what I've seen Jos isn't anything like the above. Bit underwhelmed; really wanted an attack minded manager. Obviously I'm on my own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You seriously not only get the fanbase wrong but you deliberately try to open up false debate by talking falsehoods. Can't stand people who say debate the topic when they clearly open themselves up for criticism, then will not take that criticism.
