barneyrubble Posted February 28, 2018 Report Share Posted February 28, 2018 Time is running out on the season it will soon be getting warm!! The bad run has happened and we're out of top six, looking back over injuries , cup runs , tactics and errors is pointless ( no pun ) The club as a whole need to look forward and get back to enjoying football again and stop over thinking it. It's a simple game , keep it when you have it get it back when you haven't and be ruthless in both boxes. Good players win matches not fancy formations and we have them just go out and play .

barneyrubble Posted February 28, 2018 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2018 Man City and Barcelona play very fluid formations with no rigid positions they win as they have fitter faster and more technical players, they are also very well motivated the most important role of the manager.Watch the Brian clough documentary.

No point in having the right players playing in the wrong positions. I hope Johnson has analysed these bad performances and not just told them to go out and play. I also hope he has looked at positives like the Fulham performance. If Diedhiou is available, then I don't see why he can't just play that kind of team again, as we played so well. Agreed. We matched Fulham in every department who are currently playing the best football in this league. The Cardiff performance spoilt that but Lee got it all wrong. Get back to the Fulham highs in what looks a good 6 game run coming up and we will be back in the mix. Im convinced we'll win at least 4 of our next 6 and bring home at least a point from Preston which will comfortably put us back in the top 6. We hit sensational form this time last season and we will do it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do we play a ‘fancy formation’? It’s a variant of a 442, about as rudimentary as you can get on paper! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigTone Posted February 28, 2018 Report Share Posted February 28, 2018 Our problem is we have drawn too many games recently but what is more worrying is how we capitulate after getting into a winning position. Next game is vital to me otherwise I think the play offs are a dream too far. I also think the team to watch is Millwall who are quietly sneaking up on the pack.

Major Isewater Posted February 28, 2018 Report Share Posted February 28, 2018 The one positive I can take is that we seem to have recovered our energy levels from before Christmas. We have also completed the countdown bingo of scoring consecutively 3,2,1,0 goals so 3 for us Saturday against the Wendys and a point ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No two ways about it that's what happens to teams in the relegation zone . Turn wins into draws and draws into losses. Saturday's match is crucial for us . We must win , no ifs or buts .Wednesday are in big trouble themselves and if we don't take advantage it is going to be a psychological mountain to climb to get back to where we were. I'm not saying we'll go down this season , obviously ,but we must stop the rot now . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All these draws are costly, a win a two losses going for wins are equal to 3 draws, so why not go for it a bit more - and not just in the last 5 or 10 minutes once we’re already in the shit.
