2023/24 Nathan Patterson

[davek]

He's the only player who seems capable of passing the ball forward with any purpose.

Iwobi isn't a winger. We put him on the wing.
Garner isn't a winger. We put him on the wing.
Doucoure isn't an attacking mid/number 10, we put him there.
Maupay isn't a number 9.

The sooner we can put players in their preferred position, the better and no mistake Garner is a CM.

He's adaptable. He can do a few roles competently and one of them is CM. But I cant see yet a CM who's going to get on the ball and put a ball through like Onana did for Maupay yesterday - in fact, Onana showed how to pass forwardly with intent in that first half yesterday setting up Doucoure too.

We have a strong CM and we know that Garner can play as a right sided player. His best game for the club so far was as a right wing back against Bournemouth. The solution is there in that position at least.

Ah yes. Let’s play our most creative midfielder even further out of position.

Also anyone got any ideas why we don’t score goals?

Because Maupay is the only striker we have available at the moment.

Most creative midfielder?

Really?

How do you mean? In what way has he been our most creative midfielder? I've seen nothing to persuasde me that Garner can fulfil that role in CM.

He has a natural aptitude on the right side of the pitch in any position IMO.

This manager knows it too and I expect him to play him there otherwise he's not doing his job.

Our midfielders are Onana, Gueye, Doucoure, Garner.

He is the most creative of them by quite a long way.

I mean Tarks and Keane just totally forgot they were on a football pitch I think.

Tarks wondered off to talk to somebody in the crowd and Keane walked around wondering if he left the iron on.

He was absolutely muck all game I watched the full game. He is bad at football.

I thought they’d both gone to the loo or something. Amateur level defending both getting dragged out.

Thats a different discussion.

Cheers mate, can’t comment, didn’t watch, don’t agree with the bold though.

Can’t say the goal was his fault but he still should block that cross

??? Aren’t you basically doing that here.

You mean where I didn’t blame him for the goal in the part you put in bold?

“He should block that cross but he wasn’t at fault for the goal” so he was at fault then

 

[Wat Tyler]

“He should block that cross but he wasn’t at fault for the goal” so he was at fault then

I said: Can’t say the goal was his fault but he still should block that cross

The goal isn’t his fault because the two CB’s went walkabouts but he still should block the cross. I don’t really see what’s so hard to get about that or are you one of them dullard argumentative nuggets
