ozzieowl Posted October 22, 2019 Such a work horse. Quality player. But feel his job be easier if wasn’t so isolated. For a sort of front 3 we playing , Harris and Reach both stay really wide and most of time too far away from Fletch. He wins the headers or flick ins with no one in support. Needs Fessi sitting in behind him so can work off him. Give Fessi free role in front of midfield and in n around Fletch. Option to support wide men when need be. Sometimes feel for Fletch when runs his crackers off with no one to support him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stop worrying about how it works. Just enjoy that it does. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pazowl55 Posted October 22, 2019 We playing start a thread Bingo or something. Must be about 30 of them. Perhaps I should have started a thread for this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Can definitely see your point about Fletchers tough task each day and often being isolated by both Harris and Reach staying really wide however this is compensated by allowing likes of Luongo to push through into the gaps this creates. Don’t think giving Fessi the floating role to sit it front of midfield is a good option - for a start who would you drop, the player in front of defence as in Hutch meaning that we’d be defensively weaker or one of Bannan or Luongo meaning that we’d be overhauled too easily in middle of park.

I’m afraid that’s the difference between Fletcher, and a lone striker who can make things happen for himself. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pazowl55 Posted October 22, 2019 I think Fessi is better coming on in the second half. That's where we have been lacking attacking wise. First half we have been fine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd pity our other midfielder, he'd need three shredded wheat to cover that lot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Its no use, drop the lot of em. Play FF, Harris, Reach and Murphy with Rhodes and Winnall up top. Back 4 of Palmer, Fox, Odubajo and Thorniley. It'd be interesting anyhow.

Not sure they’d be delighted if Hutch came along and ate their weaves Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
