We have to get back to a four man defence

[davek]

Just an observation, Paterson won't be playing in a back 4, we'd have to use Coleman or Holgate, neither ideal really.

It's not that he wont, it's that he cant.

You missed half the game, you have no right to discuss a game you didnt watch, try again next week.

This is a very Trumpian thread. Its not grounded in reality, doesn't reflect what actually happens on the pitch, and its sole purpose is to reinforce a narrative constructed because he has an irrational dislike of one person (Patterson).

Trump is paranoid. Doesn't that reflect more your post than the thread itself?

I think we must retain the current formation.

We don't have the personnel to play another way right now.
We arguably need a better CM and forward.

Our problem with the formation for me is it requires clever, intelligent forwards whom are good decision makers.

In Gordon and Gray we have possibly the thickest forwards known to man whose decision making is very inconsistent.

I think we look much more solid and if we can get a couple of more adept forward players it will be good.

Any chance on telling us about why Tarkowski made these mistakes today

So what you're saying is we dont have the players in CM to make a back four possible; and we don t have a striker to make a 3 man system possible.

?

 

[street end]

Which is our achilles heel and which is why he is our best CB.

Could have conceded a lot more than 4 goals in the last 3 games if not for his presence.

Totally failed to answer the question

No. I'm saying that we don't have the perfect players yet where by this formation is at its best.

But at the same time it's our best way of keeping in games.

Agree it's what I meant.

 

[billyblue80]

Tend to agree i'd like to see a 433 the issue is the DM is lacking

 

[atypicalusername]

Only way we can play 4 at the back is if we have an intelligent player like Davies in midfield.

Defense? How about some players that can put the ball in the net? Iwobi looks like prime Jay Jay Okcha out there we need someone who can score. A true target man.

DCL seems to only be able to score with his Head or Tap in’s. I would’ve sold him before Richarlison.
