ozzieowl Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 Can’t be sitting just in front of defence. Did it today and doesn’t get game going forward. Comes back for Borner to pass to him when he’s marked to pass him straight back n then we get pressed. Did it first half at Weeds. Second half he pushed further up and we ran the game. Is Monk instructing him to do this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoop Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 Brilliant when all’s going to plan Still waiting for him to drag us out of the sh*t when the going gets tough 5 years and counting 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WadsleyOwl Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 The first member of the squad I’d sell, take £3 million for him in a heartbeat, the sooner he’s away from our midfield the better, neg away but I want a team not every movement going through one man. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SallyCinnamon Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 Here we go. He sat deep today because we had 10 men. The entire game plan went out the window. Who was moaning last week with Bannan’s performance in a midfield three? No one. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HIGHERSTATE Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 Just now, Stoop said: A penalty?? ok then Good analysis there. He dragged us through that game in the second half and was clearly the man of the match as he was the only one willing to take the initiative. As you may or may not know scoring goals shouldn't be his main responsibility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiJ Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 Anyone getting a sense of deja vu? Bannan is one of our most talented players and yet no one really seems to know where to play him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kopparberg Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 A absolute unit of a man would help next to Bannan. Like a midfield Iorfa in a way. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No but does it help us as a team ? I do t think it does. he needs to concentrate on his own game and keep further up the pitch and do what he does best. Atm when he’s doing the dropping deep role he’s about as much use as a chocolate fire guard. Thats pretty much right. But I have no idea how we can get the ball forward without hoofing it otherwise.

SiJ Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 tbh, I'm not overly certain he's got the physical attributes to consistently play as a deep lying playmaker type. Worked against Leeds in the second half, but I wouldn't say Bazza is the most defensively disciplined player by any stretch. Also think he is better further up the pitch.

Iorfa would probably be immense in midfield. Nothing much else is working. Why don't we give it a go for a game or two. Can't be any worse than today.

You get so butthurt about anything on Bannan that you actually failed to understand the op, no ones moaning at his performance, they’re moaning at his positioning Edited January 18, 2020 by FreshOwl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sMacLean Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 Bannan isn't a defensive mid as he lacks height and power nor an attacking mid as he can't run beyond defenders or shoot. If he could do either he'd be a Prem player I guess. We need a new mobile DM to replace Hutch in the summer and move Bannan forward but keep play coming down the wings. Either that or sell him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiJ Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 Also think he's wasting his time with all those long passes when you've got the likes of Winnall and Murphy up top. Fletcher can bring a ball like that down and do something with it. The rest aren't good enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
