Dutch McLovin Posted October 24, 2021 Share Posted October 24, 2021 Agree Johnson had a decent game but there is no way in a million years he should be a CH. He's a winger who can do a job at left back if need be. He's got a good delivery on him and if utilised on either wing will get assists through his deliveries. Should be played in his position. Same with Palmer. Never been a CH or LB. Back up RB or nothing at all. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CircleSeven Posted October 24, 2021 Share Posted October 24, 2021 I can’t imagine how it even came to pass. If Dunkley was benched because on a knock a perfectly credible back four would have been Hunt, Palmer, Iorfa, Brown/ Johnson. The whole thing was utterly unnecessary. This is league one. Our squad has enough in it to play to a simple plan with square pegs in square holes and just try to be better at football than our opponents. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He wasn’t awful as an individual but defences play as a unit so each member really needs to know what’s happening or it drives mistakes into the others which in my view is what happened yesterday. We we terrible at the back yesterday with endless mistakes. Surely driven by the fact only one of the Centre Backs was a Centre Back… FFS 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheEnchanter Posted October 24, 2021 Share Posted October 24, 2021 He has no clue which team, formations or line ups he should use and we are nearly 1/3rd of the way into the season. That is a huge concern and something that will make or break his time with us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MATCH Yep, it's always in reaction to how the opposition play rather than trying to create a clear identity in the way we play, maybe something that involves us believing in ourselves and making the opposition worry about us. But no, we spend all week pooing it about how good the opposition will be and no matter how many tactical adjustments we make between games or during the flipping game itself we never look comfortable and rarely have dominance over the opposition. It's so frustrating. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Animis Posted October 24, 2021 Share Posted October 24, 2021 I genuinely don't think Moore sees the position as a CB. I think he's gone that far off the scale with the formation convention, and just sees 11 players playing flexibly across the pitch. I think Moore would say Johnson was playing 'wide left defence' in a back 3. We essentially played one CB from the start, which is the source of our problems - we have a manager who doesn't know what he's doing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JOCOWl Posted October 24, 2021 Share Posted October 24, 2021 I wholeheartedly disagree with him being anywhere on the pitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CalmJimmers Posted October 24, 2021 Share Posted October 24, 2021 He didn't play bad but Jesus, he's one of the few players we have who can cross and he's sat in at CB, with a CB on the bench. I could sort of get it if we had no other option, but Dunkley was available. If he didn't fancy Dunkley at CB he could have gone for 4 at the back and have just Palmer next to Iorfa. Proper, proper weird decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FlyingOwl Posted October 24, 2021 Share Posted October 24, 2021 When I saw the line up I was CONVINCED it was a 4-3-3 or a 4-4-2. It was inconceivable to me that we’d play a winger at centre half JUST because he happens to be left footed. Im baffled. I remember years ago having a whole Kop singing ‘Jermaine Johnson is not a right back, This is worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
