The whole wide left or up top thing...for me he's at his best operating in that space between the midfield and your strikers. In and around the box with licence to roam and cause problems. 100%. And it may sound crazy, but there's nothing wrong with Nuhiu drifting out to the flanks. One of his strengths is receiving the ball with his back to goal in those areas from passes/throw ins etc, and using a bit of skill to turn and beat his man or win a free kick. Joao is the one I'd try to keep high up top as often as possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agentwalker Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 The aim I think with the wide right role is to allow him to get the ball and turn and run at defenders. With him playing high up top like on saturday he's having to play with his back to goal which isn't his string point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We finished mid-table in the Championship last season. Get some perspective. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get some perspective. It’s nothing to do with the opposition. I just don’t think the things I raised are getting the best out of our players. Which is a bit strange because Jos did get the best out of them last season. He played Lees in the middle of the back 3 and didn’t play FF and Nuhiu as a 2 man attack. Always had 3.

Without Hutchinson we've got Pelupessy, Jones, Bannan and Reach for what will probably be 3 starters. There's also Lee and Abdi of course, but who knows how many games they're going to be fit for? This is reflected in having Connor Kirby and Alex Hunt given first team squad numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest HillsboroughOwlNI Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 Maybe all the pre-season shenanigans has all been a trick. The past 3 seasons we became predictable very quickly. Now nobody has a clue what the feck is going on! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our strongest position is up top. Hoping Jos realises our best chance of winning games is getting the ball forward as quickly and as often as possible, and letting a very effective frontline of Joao, Nuhiu and FF do their thing. Go for it every week. Teams will struggle to handle that front 3. If he goes with 2 up top we won't create enough imo Wow. Couldnt agree with you more. 3 up top every week for me.

toooldforthis Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 Wildsmith Lees Pudil. JVA Palmer. Boyd Hutch Pelupessy Bannan FF Nuhiu It was well balanced against a very good Villa Real side who were technically superior and tactically astute...operating at 75% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reach is better than Pelupessy in the middle I don’t see the need to play 2 defensive midfield players when we already play 5 at the back. We need to beat sides not sit back and scrape a draw against Wigan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
