Monk played FF as a wing back

[Guest mrbluesky]

The writing was on the wall back then.

MONK OUT

Think Darren Moore been given much more leeway with player recruitment and back room staff than Monk ever was.

Could have been worse, he could have played him at centre back.

I will say it's difficult signing what essentially was a new team, said it then, and I'll say it now, you are lucky if 6 of them will perform consistently, no matter their background, but you have to question the tactics, or is it that the players aren't good enough, added with a manager who's struggling to manage them atm?.

Thanks for that enlightening

Against Luton away (lost 1:0, even after they missed a penalty after 15 seconds) I was there with relatives who couldn't believe where FF was playing, nor how awful we were. Plus ca change, plus la meme chose.

It’s nailed on the dressing room wall as a prerequisite for any new manager coming in:

 

’Must play players completely out of position’

[Gob_Bluth]

Monk & Moore are ahead of their times.

 

Playing wingers as defenders is the future, they'll be canonized in football folklore for being trendsetters

Won't be long till his mate is here telling you it was not Monk decision but the tea lady's

Defenders getting up front and scoring.

 

We completed it in the 90's with Warhurst mate.

As usual the great unwashed are 30 years behind

I went to that. A grim game even among a few years of horrors it stood out as uniquely awful

Whenever managers do something random like that, I always think they need to walk away with a result because when things aren’t going for you & you decide to play a ST at WB, your going to get absolutely slaughtered for it if you don’t win.

 

Was the first thing I thought when I seen Johnson at CB.

I’d fancy monk to get this side promoted

Monk was bad, Moore may be worse. 

[Emerson Thome]

Forestieri did quite well at LWB I seem to remember in an otherwise dire performance. And Johnson was better at LCB than most of our players who have tried it. Maybe we need to play the whole team out of position?

It’s clearly the future. Bannan in goal, Gregory at RWB, midfield trio of Wildsmith, BPF and Hunt, Palmer up top. Our opponents won’t know what’s hit them!
