Bouncing Owl Posted April 14, 2019 Share Posted April 14, 2019 Great player. Him and Bannan struggled yesterday but they were out-numbered 3 against 2. Both would look better in a midfield 3 but will we do it next season? Norwich, Leeds and pigs play with 3 in the middle. Interesting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Earlsfieldowl Posted April 14, 2019 Share Posted April 14, 2019 Bruce clearly rates him but his fitness record will always be an issue. ..probably offer another 1 year contract but we need a strong alternative Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McRightSide Posted April 14, 2019 Share Posted April 14, 2019 Hutch looks the sharpest I’ve ever seen him look. And actually, I think that’s helping him keep out of disciplinary troubles. He looks very strong right now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've long considered that it's not a good idea to play a 2 in midfield against an opposition 3 - so i'd change formation to have a 3 Overall system - probably a 3-5-2 - or 4-3-1-2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Costello 77 Posted April 14, 2019 Share Posted April 14, 2019 (edited) Hutchinson and Bannan will always be exposed against good teams. They've both got quality but definitely need a physical player in next to them to chase down and compete in the air. We've had a glimpse into the future by the way Leeds mounted attack after attack with no challenge in the middle of the park. They're showing the energy levels that can only be achieved by top athletes...and they've got the skill to match at our level. That's where we've got to get to...and we haven't got the tools to do it as things stand. As a midfield 2.

Probably a couple of things. The run of form we’d been on playing a relatively traditional formation, and lack of choice for the third central midfielder 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shetland Owl Posted April 14, 2019 Share Posted April 14, 2019 Great professional Good that he seems to be fitter and plays more than under the previous manager and he doesn't get booked every game. Hope he can build on this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We couldnt find space to get out as they pressed up on to our toes,the pressure just kept mounting,we got lucky with a one goal defeat,on another day we could have got really hammered. We could quite easily reverted to 3 at the back and flooded the MF with 5 and make them play over the top,but at least wed have got a foot in the game,dissapointed king bruce fluffed it tactically.
