Tewkesbury Posted January 8, 2022 Share Posted January 8, 2022 1 minute ago, adelphi1867 said: So, we change the 'Style' to meet every Young Loanee we sign, is that it?. Poster's on here have called for a style/Philosophy at the club for Year's, weather Moore proven right or not, he is TRYING to bring a playing Philosophy to the club. The last time we did that was between 1976 - 86, in my opinion our most consistently successful era in the last 45 years. Will Moore succeed? I don't know, but after the last 35 years of Boom and Bust, more Bust than Boom, I hope so. Where as we have changed style every time we have changed the manager We had the style for Theo (and the rest of the signings) already in preseason. We changed the style midseason to meet the needs of a 33 year old striker. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has it not occurred to you that playing Theo how Wolves wanted would have been beneficial to us? It’s not like Moore has gone with a different approach and found huge success. We’re half way through the season and we still look a shambles whilst being out of the play off spots. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair to DM he has found out he's not a very good wing back.... Maybe Moore told Wolves he was going to play him through the middle... At CB?!? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They just wanted Theo to get more game time. 9 hours ago, markg said: I do agree with you that it was a bit strange that he brought him in but we did play better and pick up better results when we changed formation . I don’t blame DM for sticking with it at the expense of Theo . We looked more threatening as an attacking force when Theo played, running with pace at defenders, scoring goals and providing assists. We had struggled for goals all season. Then Theo starts we started scoring and winning, beating MK Dons and 3 goals against Sunderland and Accrington, the only times we've scored more than 2. We looked like we had turned a corner then inexplicably Moore drops him again. We've scored 2 goals in the last 4 games. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WalthamOwl Posted January 8, 2022 Share Posted January 8, 2022 I hate the way we play under Moore. So dull and negative. Playing players out of position, crap formations and tactics. Painful. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neon Nick Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 12 hours ago, prowl said: 4 4 2 We can't play 3 at the back without Cb's. We can't play 1 up front because of Gregory We can't play 2 in the middle because of Bannan. Very true. I don't understand why a Manager would try to shoehorn players into a formation, rather than letting the weapons on hand determine the formation. The formation should be determined by the skillsets of the different players. The formation can be whatever it needs to be, in order to get the most out of the players. The reason why this Club or that, is kicking ass in this League or that, is not the formation per se...it's that the Manager has built a formation around the players, allowing for these players to play according to their strengths. I think SWFC would do better in a 4-4-2, however unfashionable it may be. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Screen Door Slams Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 Nothing wrong with 3-5-2.....................our porkular neighbours went from mid table league 1 to mid table premier league playing this formation. You just have to recruit accordingly , like Darren Moore did......oh wait !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it is probably more to do with the manager, Wilder has now got Boro going without any recruitment, Cooper got forest moving and Huddersfield manager has got them towards the top 6. The much derided Rooney had to piece a rag bag side together but they would now be mid table if not for points deduction. I saw a piece on another team in our division who the BBC claimed only had a handful of players when they reported back pre season, can't remember if it was Wigan but the team in question were above us in the league.. Just need to find a good manager. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And taking into account the club appears to be broken. Why are wolves telling us how to play? Football just gets weirder.

We shouldn't be discussing how we choose to use our players. Why should we? If he's not happy and it's quite clear he wasn't, that fair enough and he moves on. Which he has. My issue (and my only one here) is with the supposed meeting telling us how to use him. Edited January 9, 2022 by Maddogbob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
i used to be sc_owl Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 Guaranteed to line up 442 with Bannan and Paterson on the wings in our next game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daz Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 I think that we all need to break out the champagne and praise the management of our club who have just lost us one of our best players so far this season, and a free bonus bottle because he went to a promotion rival.... cool stuff..... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seat172 Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 We along with Sunderland have THE most potential in this league by far. Have a guess which two clubs should be able to attract the best players and managers at this level. The fact that WE can't do this tells you all you need to know. The problem is the bloke in charge, and it ain't DM. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
