For me, we have to go for it, at least trying to win those games, not just trying to hang in there. It’s time for Brown. Sure I’m not confident that he will deliver, butI know the others can’t Last season he had far more assists than any of our lot, and that was in a rubbish Luton side. As I said, I’m far from certain that he will deliver, but I do know he has done it, so it has to be worth giving him a run in the side. At the moment we are sleep walking towards relegation. If we need to go three at the back, to get the wing backs high up the pitch, so be it. It also means we can get three in midfield, and one of them has to be Brown. At the moment, we can only score a goal from crosses, or set plays. That’s too limiting, we need to find extra ways of creating chances and Brown is the best man to do that, in my opinion Brown or Hunt need to play. We can’t continue with the tactic of Bannan dropping deep to play one twos with the centre halves before passing it back to the keeper to hoof upfield. We need to play forward quicker and not get pressed back continually. Oh for an Alex Lopez right now. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn’t time to rest players and try players in different positions, it was a game to play your go to strongest team. That go to team has to include the players in the op in those positions. When we are playing teams around us we should play our strongest team not rest players saying they are needed to play the better teams in the league. A win against Birmingham would have been a win than a win against Brentford. As it was we got neither, that was a shocking decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Down South Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 2 hours ago, e6owl said: Ultimately I still think our route to success is through set plays and attrition football. We need to do what most relegation sides do, soak up pressure, let our opponents exhaust ourselves, then get them on the break without being at so much risk. Paired with some smart corners and free kicks and you can nick a few goals and hopefully make it out. We tried that with Pulis - fair to say it wasn’t a great success. 1 hour ago, DIPPS_S.W.F.C said: Id drop Reach,play Penny there.. Hutch holding mid.. Lees Dunk Bonner Rhodes Patty Hutchinson has never been a midfield player, even less so as he’s got older - would play him instead of Dunkley. As for Penney in place of Reach, words fail me. Agree with you on Rhodes and Paterson. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you have a recipe , and 50% of the ingredients are crap...You at least put the best 50% into the dish first... although once added it might still taste crap Edited February 26, 2021 by asteener1867 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Completely different to how he's been on his own before Come on dude, you don't have to be the talksport of posters all the time you know Neither of those 2 are capable of regularly getting past the striker.

Holmowl Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 Clearly it isn’t sabotage, but if it were, you would pick the starting Xl from Birmingham and Brentford. Awful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Mcguigan Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 20 hours ago, @owlstalk said: Harris on the right putting early crosses in Reach on the left putting early crosses in Paterson and Rhodes up front Hutchinson centre half It's getting to the point where anything other than these players in these positions is negligence, incompetence or deliberate sabotage Decent opposition managers would neutralise that before we even kick off. Paterson and Rhodes have little to no pace. So, the opposition play a higher line making it hard for Rhodes and Patterson to run in behind or be constantly off side and all the early crosses go straight through to the keeper. I’ve no idea what the solution is though as we’ve such an unbalanced squad, lacking in real quality in key positions, it’s scary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Bulgaria Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 "Going for it" is just not in our DNA. Until the club starts employing coaches/mangers that are not afraid of losing, then it will just continue as it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not including Luongo in that because he’s never available. I agree with this. Though I'd swap Lees and Hutchinson. Have your better passers of the ball either side of Lees.
