Bring in midfield beast in centre. Line up like this: WildSmith Thorniley. Command CB. Lees Pace Rwb. Reach M Beast. Hutch Bannan Forestieri Joao Subs: Dawson, Van Aken, Nielson, Lee, Matias, Baker, Nuhiu, Hooper Reach would be absolutely phenomenal with a similar player on the other flank. Pace on both flanks and through the middle with João and Forestieri and Bannan causing havoc making runs and chasing down the opposition. Matias on the bench enables a switch to 442 with him on one wing and Forestieri or Reach on the other. Unfortunately that could mean our better players going and loans coming in. Obvioulsy the club couldnt let the likes FF,BB and Westwood go unless we could bring someone in. Now it looks as though we can and get some high earners of the wage bill.

Buy it was stopping us replacing them with younger, cheaper, fitter players, who Jo's wants If you can't replace them you may be better staying with what you know, imagine having 8 injuries with a small squad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt we've batted away a great deal of interest in Jones and Abdi due to being under an embargo over the summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whilst I don’t agree with some of your points I think the time it takes to spell out your thoughts should be applauded. All to go quick on here at times we see one line put downs rather than thought out responses, especially to posts that are clearly well thought out, albeit with differing opinions. I certainly agree that those that are not in our plans should be shifted, even if that’s at a cost/loss, as long as that cost/loss is less than total cost/loss of them hanging about. Be that a subsidised loan, contract termination etc. In current situation I’d rather see our U23 players playing than older players, with expiring contracts: Westwood : Dawson / Wildsmith Boyd: Penney / Baker Jones: Kirby / Hunt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure I understand his latest but if it’s a problem that he’ll never recover from why hasn’t insurance paid out and he retired? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I carried on for a laugh anyways. Get rid of Palmer, despite him being solid the other night? Get a RWB, yeah, but Palmer is an excellent option as cover at this level. I don't get the hate. He may be a bit off form but he is a very capable footballer that pretty much every other team in this division would be happy to have him in their squad. Then let's get to midfield.... Hutch is our midfield beast. If you're gonna play him in midfield then you need two creative players around him. Not a slightly bigger version of him next to him doing the same thing. We need Lee fit. Three in midfield will be Hutch holding with Bannan and Lee, which will be the best midfield in the league. As for up top. Joao and FF would work in a three, but not in a two. If you play FF in a two it has to be with Fletcher or Nuhiu. Joao is not a target man. Other than that I agree. In response: Line up like this: WildSmith Lee's/VA Command CB Thorniley/Nielson Pace Rwb. Reach Hutch/Lee Bannan Forestieri Joao Matias/Hooper Subs: Dawson, Van Aken, Nielson, Lee, Matias, Baker, Nuhiu, Hooper/Winnall I haven't said get rid of our full backs/wing backs at all. Reach is made for that role. If he returns from his Injuries then Lee has the engine for it too on opposite side. Perhaps keeping Palmer is a good option. But the rest of them are not getting picked and past their best days. Matias Or Hooper can drop in the hole between Bannan and Forestieri. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Keiren Lee returns from his injuries he will be one of if not THE best central midfielders in this league ..... no way should he be playing at full back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FF dries up if played in a front 2. Joao might get 10-15. M.Beast of course and Pace Rwb will chip in with a couple 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kraschenbern Posted August 19, 2018 Share Posted August 19, 2018 (edited) I don't think we're far off a decent squad/side if everyone is fit.... Personally I'd go with this...... Wildsmith Hutch Lees Pudil Palmer/New RWB Reach/Penney Lee Bannan Joao Forestieri Hooper If we need to switch to 4-4-2 it would also be dead easy. Hutch just pushes into holding role and wing backs drop back. FF plays at top of a diamond, and Joao and Hooper make up the front two. Or 4-3-3 woud be an easier swich.
