4231 - its the only formation we've had regular success in since 442 dropped out of fashion. Our defence is that weak our best bet is to protect it with a deeper midfield.
Iverson - even though he's been shite he's meant to be good.
Junior RB - he's good and he's not hoover
Wilmot CB - best of a sorry load of shit
Clark CB - he's not rose or mcnally
Gooch LB - he's the hardest worker mostly. We need it more than ever.
Burger DLP - he's our best player
Pearson DM - I need to see some bite and aggression
Million RW - got to hope he's got something about him and he can allegedly cut in and shoot
Bae no.10 - work rate. Although his end product is poor we need as much fight in the team as possible.
Haksabanovic LW - more creative than vidigal and slightly less likely to be kicked off the park by QPR.
Wesley - we've tried everything else. Get him hussling and bustling and let hak, bae and the million dollar baby do the rest.

Iverson Junior, McNally, Rose, Hoever Thompson, Burger, Baker Gooch, Ennis, Junho
Junho with a bit of a free role that allows Hoever to get forward from left back.
I’d really want Campbell to start ahead of Gooch but if stories of him skulking off down the tunnel once the final subs had been made are true then he simply can’t be rewarded with a starting place.
Young Sol Sidibe has to be on the bench as well. I’d be very tempted to start him.

Whatever the team, please, please don't let that mc have us coming out of the tunnel as the mighty potters. Can anyone on here speak to the club and get this sorted.

Young Sol Sidibe has to be on the bench as well. I’d be very tempted to start him. Not sure about wanting Campbell in the starting line up, he just looks totally disinterested and gives the impression he has already moved on. However, I think young Sidibe could be the bit of steel that we desperately need in midfield. I certainly think the passion, effort and enthusiasm would be there, which is sadly lacking from a fair few of our so called first team players. Is there a big hard centre back in the U21's who could make the step up? Can't be any worse than the three we are picking from now.

For me Iverson Junior Rose McNally Gooch Burger Baker Leris Junho Manhoef Lowe That’s shite isn’t it He has to change his approach I’d go Keeper junior. Wilmot mcnally. Gooch Pearson. Thomson Baker. Laurent Ellis. Campbell or Mmaee Yes and drop the only player we have with character and who actually gives a toss !! Burger

Possibly swap Junior and Hoever around but the main thing just let the full backs play as full backs, not inverted because it isn’t working at all.

Bonham
Junior, Mcnally, Wilmot, Hoever
Pearson, Burger
Baker
Junho, Cundle
Ennis
Junho and Cundle starting position to be narrow
Backline doesnt move Burger pushes into Baker space Baker pushes into Junho space Junho drifts to edge of box Cundle drifts to other edge
Defend 442 with Baker to the right of Pearson and Cundle to the left of Burger with Junho alongside Ennis.

And I know things are desperate, but Ellis? 😂 If we’re going back to the Tony Ellis era… I’d bring Bruce Grobbelaar in to administer some on the field discipline. He must be a free agent these days and, unlike Ricardo, he doesn’t get sent off for striking his teammates…

4-4-fucking 2! And be rigid.
Iverson
Junior Wilmot Clarke if anywhere near sharp enough Gooch
Million Burger Baker Thompson
Ennis Bad Boy Maee
Keep those bloody full backs as defenders, Junior and Gooch yesterday were everywhere they shouldn't have been, same for the past 3 games whoever has played there. Result first performance second.

Needs pinning at the top of the board? Agreed. At this stage while we are fighting for survival, nothing more needs to be said. Everyone should read these wise words from SJW.

I think Thompson has to be found a place in midfield, we generally play better when he is in there.

Post by hcstokie on Feb 11, 2024 20:08:05 GMT
I really think we should be looking at the free agent market before this one. I’d go with the following:
Sorenson
Wilkinson Shawcross Huth Griffin
Pennant Delap Whelan Etherington
Fuller Sidibe

We need a solid pragmatic 4-4-2
Bonham
Junior (as an out and out right back) Wilmot McNally Thompson (as an out and out left back )
Million Baker (deep lying) Burger (deep lying) Bae
Ennis Campbell
Go back to basics and try and not confuse these thick fuckers we've got playing for us.

Thompson has had some good games in cm when it’s mattered- I think we need to be solid in there. Baker gets picked as he can actually score a goal. He has to be.
Ennis did int look great but gets picked as he actually scored last week and took it well.
The defence is terrifying. But any selection we make there is.
