Too many square pegs 21:39 - Mar 8 with 2121 viewsangryjack

In round holes,we have one best strikers in league,put piroe in Fulham side he would get a hateful.. but Martin plays him deep then when took ntcham off put him out wide and dropped Bennett in,instead doing a straight swap and putting Joseph on out wide,Martin baffles me,all the possession we had first half we never got into box once,I'm sorry Martin not the answer no consistency he's not the answer

Martin himself is the wrong shaped peg.

Unquestionably.

I would say this is the only fixture I’m not going to bother looking too much into.

They really are streets ahead. One of the best Championship sides I can remember.

BUT we do need to be smarter and control the controllables. One of those things is our own discipline, especially in non dangerous areas of the field.

People say the championship is poor every year, it’s like clockwork.

But yes, I was talking about Fulham specifically.

Mitrovic, Wilson, Reid, Reed, Robinson and Adarabioyo have a current estimated value of €65m between just those 6.

Probably double/triple the value of our whole squad.

Fulham will go up but then will go straight back so no real great shakes.#
We are looking at ways to make our pain less.

We simply have to accept Martin needs dumping before he is allowed more windows.

I still think we should try Oba AND Piroe up front with Paterson in behind. And we should be trying genuine wide midfielders or wingers and drop the wing back stuff. Play two holding midfielders behind 3 attacking midfielders who can drop in to make a back 5 when under attack. I know its not often seen but 3-2-3-2. Bring Garrick back and try him wide right with Wolf on the left.

At least the pegs will be in the right shaped holes then too.

Just my opinion, but WTF do I know anyway?

I think if you go that way then you go with a 4-3-3.

You have one holding midfielder with 2 midfielders more centrally, you go with either 3 interchangeable forwards or 1 central striker with 2 adding the width.

That's more like how Barca used to line up, one forward, 5 midfielders in a V shape with a back 4. 4-1-2-2-1?

I'm just not keen n wing backs, a decent full back will get forward when there's a chance but pushing them so far forward they can't get back makes no sense to me and putting a midfielder into that wrong shaped peg, even less sense.

The WASGIJ ones are challenging.
An excellent way to while away the hours ;best really when we are stroking the ball around at the back .

We went over to donate stuff to Ukraine and included ten previous ones we 'd done.The reception people laughed and aid,they 'd be very much appreciated as a way of relief from reality.

Absolutely, my father once got badly hurt because of a jigsaw. he dropped a piece on the flor and banged his head on the corner of the table bending to get it, 4 stitches he needed the butter fingers.

He has also chopped the end of one of his fingers off with the jigsaw you are referring too as well

Angel , Taylor and Ben always got forward for us playing in a back 4

yes, and we can go back further to Habziabdic too. When we played 4-4-2 under Tosh he expected the full backs to support the wingers. Jimmy only ever scored one goal though, but it was a screamer against Chelsea, I think.

Yyes and with so many teams playing one striker/CF there should be plenty of room for one of the full backs to get u the pitch and help an attack.

4-2-3-1 or 4-1-3-2 or even that 4-3-3, why not. He sticks rigidly to a formation that we often struggle with and don't have the players for. It makes no sense. Make the team fit the squad, not the other way around, not until he has the squad he wants.

Oh to play 4-2-3-1 again. I can't stand this current fad for wing-backs, I long for the day we play with two pacey wingers a-la Dyer and Sinclair again.

Trouble is we have 2 strikers we want to get on the pitch. Piroe is wasted where he is played at the moment. Would a 4-3-3 work? Flat(ish) midfield three of Downes, Grimes and Smith keeping the midfield tight, with Piroe as the central of the 3 forwards and Paterson and Obafemi coming in off wide?
