We cannot defend and all season have struggled so let play 5 at the back and allow teams to attack us OR Less show some attacking threat we are blessed with very good attackers lets start using them. 4-3-3 Dawson Palmer/Hector/Lees/Penney Bannan/Hutch/Reach Matias/Fletcher/Fessi If we are under the kosh Fessi and Matias can drop back to make a 5 man midfield. We start the game with wing back by the 10th minute we are a flat back 5 defending the whole game. We do that against teams like Derby with their attacking force we will get more of a hiding that Norwich gave us. Jos has no more excuse - we expect a performance, we expect goals and we expect a win. If not we expect him to be gone. We are worse with 4 at the back tho. The problem IMO isn't the back 5 or 4 its the midfield we need someone in front of them and we have that person in Hutchinson he just wont play him. I agree with Matias and Fessi starting in a front 3 tho I would go with Joao with them and that is attacking intent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Granted this is the only reason but I bet 90 percent of the fan base would agree he would improve our team. Good god were that bad I'm still hoping to see Abdi make a cameo off the bench.

It seems the current scapegoats are Abdi, Boyd, Hutchinson, Jones and Westwood And to a lesser extent Forestieri. It beggars belief that all the above are overlooked in favour of Pelepussy Yes. I too am annoyed that Westwood is being overlooked in favour of Joey Pelupessy. It doesn't make any sense! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree he is no world beater but think its a bit harsh he s the current scapegoat for how badly we are doing at the moment. Its like having 10 players with him in the team.

The only way is S6 Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 I'm always optimistic in the run up to a match, but just have this nagging feeling we'll resort to trying to play it out around our box, when we clearly aren't good enough to do this. Crowd gets restless, players get nervous & it goes downhill quickly. Hopefully we might move it forward at pace, put the away team under pressure & create some chances. Like I said, optimistic to a fault. Can't imagine there are any players who Jos deems suitable to play, who aren't fit now. MM came on at the sty. FF was almost ready & Winnall has to be close now.

oldishowl Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 Can I get a bet on us spending at least 75% of the game in our own half? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had high hopes when we signed him and campaigned for him to be played for ages but its just not worked and he's never been fit here. But were in a mess. Hutchinson IMHO walks into this team and makes it better. in a number of positions. and with the midfield being the weak point at the moment, I actually think Abdi coming off the bench is better than one of the young CM players. Especially if Bannan is having an off day. Could be wrong but its not like Pelupessy who we know gives everything he's just not up to it, Abdi was class, and I would hope he'd had half an hour left in him. Agree about Jos tho. Needs to go now but I don't think he will be sacked think it will wait until he gets to a point where he walks but it gets put to us as 'mutual consent'.

I’ve said for a while that Wildsmith deserved a chance. Not sure about Jos’ decision to play him in central midfield though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pgmetcalf Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 We somehow have to find a way of strengthening the defence in January without losing quality players elsewhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree about Hutch btw, it's a ridiculous situation that he can't get in our team, hopefully a new manager would install him straight away.
