83owl Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 As a “highly rated prospect” If you can’t force your way into one of the lowest scoring teams in L1 then you must be crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That may be why Moore doesn't trust him. I can't see it being his attacking talent, he looks to have a lot of talent and can make things happen. I'd like him to be a star for us but more than that I want us to win games. If we do that I don't care who plays. This. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
torryowl Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 Just now, Ash77 said: Try him upfront with gregory/pato or with pato behind those 2 in a diamond. Tracking back less of an issue central, plus we would have some pace upfront for the 1st time in ages like when antonio played as a striker, he could always drift into channels and get some crosses in too. not sure the 3 sided diamond with the theo drifting out wide option is the way to go if bannan is in the QB role, isnt that going to leave us light if we lose possession with the wing backs stranded out wide .......theo would be better value in a false number 10 role running at the opposites from deeper with hutch /denis/fizz giving him cover if he does one step over too many .

Morepork Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 (edited) Skillful player but there is no end product at the moment, he's certainly more "raw" than I anticipated. Obviously, you could argue that's why he's here, to develop. I just don't think that is going to happen at the rate we need it to when combined with the circumstances Moore has found himself in. Namely, that his proposed tactical style (I used that word reluctantly....) hasn't worked and he's been forced to try different approaches.

Meant try upfront as a striker, not in midfield. Pacy strikers can offer a threat in behind or by drifting into channels towards wings getting crosses in, which could be useful if playing a diamond with no wingers. Something like that diamond/4312 could work, but could always change to 442/4411 with theo on right, bannan on left if a flat midfield 4 during a game to tighten it. Dennis Db bannan Pato Theo gregory Theo db dennis bannan Pato Gregory More likely will leave and do well elsewhere tho! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Etchesketch Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 With 14 new signings and what was already here there were always going to be some that gotlittle game time. Sow, Corbeanu, Kamberi and Gibson, Byers and Brown possibly won't play much this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The midfield three of two DM and one in front will be here for the rest of the season. That leaves 4231 or 532. So he's either a wingback or main striker in 532 or can play wing or centre for 4231. I think that the move rumour has come about because DM is sticking with the 532, and he's not going to drop Gregory or Berahino/Pato with him.

striker Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 1 hour ago, Tewkesbury said: To be fair, it took FDB the Pizza games, Wimbledon and most of Cambridge to really start sparking. In the game against Newcastle he looked really raw and overeager. He was fading in and out of both games, with a few flashes of good play. It really took until the goal for him to really make an impact, then he was everywhere for the last 10 minutes. What's to say Theo couldn't do the same? His half hour v Shrewsbury and Plymouth were at a time when the team was very much second best, to ask him to change the game alone would be unfair. FDB has had the best part of 4 full games to shine, Gregory got 10, why not give him more before writing him off. Nobody, not me anyway is writing him off. Both had the same opportunity to show what they can do in training etc to earn first team minutes and to date Dele-Bashiru has made the greater contribution, not sure how that is under question. As I said, I'd play Corbeanu centrally when opportunity arises, in the current 352 system difficult to see where he fits. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FDB plays in a position vital to the team, where there will be a lot of rotation due to fitness but Corbeanu isn't going to get a crack at his main posotion due to the formation change.

Mike Hunt Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 Can somebody educate me what they have seen in him to say he merits a starting place ? Whenever I have seen him he seems constantly chose the wrong option As I said after the first time I saw him he showed glimpses of skill but looks miles off the finished article Having said that Saturday was the perfect time to introduce him as a direct replacement for Hunt 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kew Owl Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 If I was DM, I’d be playing him against Harrogate and Plymouth - if he doesn’t perform in those games, yes, let him go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

room0035 Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 He won't be the only one Shodipo and Kamberi are never playing and Gibson has made just two appearance. Yet another season where millions will have been spent on loan players who then don't play. I wonder if the millions wasted could have been better spent repaying fans owed money. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moores a defender, far too safe and only interested in opposition not scoring, we need to be more of a threat to go up, especially now he's finally found a good midfield 3. most people seem to agree on the 3, what are the chances Moore will think the same, I'm not convinced he will.

Gregory didn't fit in with that, but he was top scorer, so we've changed to suit him. Why do you persist with using Gregory as the reason for our downfall in every post? How many times had Gregory played for us in a 4-2-3-1 with two proper wingers/wide attackers rather than Brown, or Paterson, or Berahino or Johnson wide of him?
