Shadowl Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 I don't get this, does it matter he'll just get injured again if he's thrown back in. It will take ages to get him back up to match fitness now. In order to do that we need to be looking towards FDB. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
room0035 Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 9 minutes ago, Tewkesbury said: Thing is, the ones who fit there, Hutch, Luongo and Byers are out. Adeniran is in there but he is a bit sus too when under pressure. Bannan would be good but he won't stay back so that leaves Wing. The formation relies on someone sitting deep, it's exactly the same formation as the England team with Rice and Phillips holding in front of the back 4. We need to realise we are a third division team. In this league the teams that get promoted need to score at least 70 goals a season and have a defence that concedes less than a goal a game. We won't win game playing like, Man City, Liverpool or England, as we have a free agent journeyman up front not Kane or Salah. We have 4 defenders that should be able to defend, the midfield 4 should create and score goals and the strikers should be hitting the back of the net, in this league at the very least 1 in 3 games. Moore formation does not work with the players he has, if it is relying on injured players to make it work, he need to play of style and formation that get the best out of the players he has not playing players in roles they cannot do. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Midfield has been like a Swiss cheese without him. Theres no one else capable of doing the job that he does for us. I know, Hutchinson did a good job at Wigan but he's needed at centre back if we insist I playing from the back. 100% agree Snoots BUT It's a bit of bugger when we struggle with one man out.

Bouncing Owl Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 Think we are being unrealistic that hes going to come back fit and stay fit. But I agree with the OP that it would be a massive boost if we had him fit. Hes the only one who can do that CDM job properly and also give us that physical edge in there. We also need Hutch at the back partnering Iorfa for a number of reasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0742 Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 I don't think he's actually that good a player, hasn't shown anything to date that makes me think he was a good signing. That said, the job he does do, is what we are really missing and it's key to getting the ball from defence to attack, which is what we are really struggling with at the moment. But like others have said, his injury record tells us all we need to know about the future for Luongo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GMOwl72 Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 Think we will see Lord Lucan again before we see Luongo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not on the evidence of the last match, his worst game yet and that's saying something. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why do you assume that 4-4-2 is the formula for getting out of this league when not a single team we've played this season has used that formation? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had Hutch with him v Wigan, he did it somewhat v Ipswich too. May not have looked his best but he put himself about and tbh the entire midfield was bad that game.

Daizan10 Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 I remain optimistic he will come back and have a storming last 7 months with the club. Giving us a massive headache as to if we offer him a new deal or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gob_Bluth Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 (edited) At this point he's reaching Paul Heffernan levels. He gets better the less he plays He'll be good enough to probably drag us to the Champions League solo in a few more weeks Edited October 4, 2021 by Gob_Bluth 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ever the pessimist Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 He’s apparently ahead of schedule. Although I agree that the likelihood of a relapse dampens any enthusiasm for that news. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
