Shadow Play Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 6 hours ago, Pinko said: Based on last night and the ongoing concerns in attack McCann may revert to a 4-4-2 long term with Moussa and Haber as the target men and FEB and Wighton playing off them? Would love to see that. My only concern would be whether FEB and Wighton could assist the midfield defensively enough. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fifespud Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 Would love to see that. My only concern would be whether FEB and Wighton could assist the midfield defensively enough. I think he means either Moussa or Haber with either Wighton or FEB?NM will clearly also want to play at least one of his wingers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pinko Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 Same here, would cause chaos to opposition defences. IMO. ETA. Moussa and Haber up front in a 4-4-2. Absolutely. Think we have the presence and talent to play 2 up top long term and all 4 have something different to give. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Algebraist Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 (edited) Don't get the love for 4-4-2. There is not much of it around these days and I think that's for a reason. The question isn't whether we are good enough to play 4-4-2, it's whether we're good enough to play anything else? Edit: Not that it isn't nice to have the twin battering ram approach in our back pocket. Edited July 20, 2017 by The Algebraist 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit: Not that it isn't nice to have the twin battering ram approach in our back pocket. One up top only works if you have midfielders getting up to support the lone striker. If you have two men out wide (Wolters and Deacon) and two sitting midfielders (Kamara an O'Hara) then it just leaves Allan. That's why it didn't work on Tuesday. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moo Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 My idea of 1 up top is to have two sitting midfielders and 3 attacking midfielders in behind. I'd still have Wolters, Allan and Deacon in behind but give Wolters and Deacom the freedom to cut inside and attack/support the striker instead of sticking to the wing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpiderDee Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 ha ha not getting my hopes up this time....... Meekings or Bain would be nice though 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludo*1 Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 Elliot Parish on a one year deal. Never heard of him but he'll only be back-up and if Bain leaves we'd sign a first choice so not distraught. Tidy bit of business and cheap back up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pinko Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 A 1 year deal. Both keeper's gone by end of next season.Looking likely we will get zero for Bain. Is that good business ? Does Elliott do clean sheets ? :-p I go back and forth with Bain. When he's got the right attitude he can be a match winner for us. He wasn't at the races quite a few times last season tho IMO.I'd rather have a replacement in now and cash in on him even if it is just a few hundred thousand. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
