Lawrie’s Left Peg Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 55 minutes ago, @owlstalk said: Eh? Other managers love Barry Bannan - including the Man City manager One of many differences between Pep and Monk is that Pep understands how to utilise players like Bannan. Pep pioneered the modern 4-3-3 with Busquets as the holding player and Javi and Iniesta box-to-box. Javi and Iniesta were tasked to hit the forward players as soon as they were one v one. If the attackers aren’t “free” possession is maintained until they become free. Defensively, press and try to win back the ball in 6 seconds. Doubt Pep would play Bannan in the Busquets role, neither would he ask Iniesta to mark the opponents top scorer, nor would he tolerate Javi or Iniesta dropping deep next to the centre half and destroying the whole team dynamic. Bannan is a decent Championship player when utilised correctly. He’s a liability playing “Monkball”. Not Bannan’s fault. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strikers are 60 yards upfield and isolated. Not athletic enough Doesn't score enough goals Leaves us exposed defensively We havent really had that fresh start. He should have gone with his mate fletcher. Unacceptable all round today nobody is without blame Perfect away, should never start home games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bouncing Owl Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 I feel sorry for Bannan playing in this team and under this manager. He would’ve been perfect for Brentford if they followed up their interest. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kraschenbern Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 Most overrated player in my 32 years watching Wednesday. No where near as good as folk think he is. For the amount of possession he has he is so ineffective. Can't tackle, is slow, rarely scores, set pieces are atrocious. He was at his best when he played on the left of the midfield, 5 years ago. Should have sold him when we had the chance. While ever he remains he will continue to stifle our development and those around him. 2 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McRightSide Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 He’s completely alone in the middle when you play him with Pelupessy...who takes ZERO responsibility on the ball Then you’ve got Reach and Harris on the wrong sides, which is a proven to be ineffective tactic Comedy club at the back with Dawson, Odubajo and Van Aken And then a fat, long haired version of Jordan Rhodes upfront. But yes, it’s Bannan’s fault for being the only player with an ounce of talent to create something Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flat Owl Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 Bazza must find it really difficult to decide which statue to aim at each week. The movement ahead of him is appalling for a professional football team. At times players were not showing for throw ins and wandering around aimlessly. So f.ucking poor considering the situation we are in. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not what I said. I said he was overrated. He's a good player when surrounded by good players (the first playoff season), but most players are. When he was at his best he wasn't anywhere close to being one of our best players. He currently might look "tidy" compared to the rest of them, but let's be honest, he's not that good. I stand by my opinion. A true rebuild will only happen once he is replaced. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
