Wolf Island Posted March 10, 2018 Report Share Posted March 10, 2018 Come on Lee give him some game time instead of feathering Liverpool’s nest by developing that thuggish show pony. Games til the end of the season would suit his line-busting man-beating runs and pinpoint crosses. And if we don’t go up he’ll be all the more Championship ready for next season.

Seems common knowledge there is a penalty clause if Kent isn’t involved for a certain percentage of the games. Expect him to make a lot of late sub appearances over the last few months of the season therefore... He isn’t starting at present though so is hardly the reason that Eliasson isn’t. He’s a bit inconsistent and to me has done little so far to justify a starting spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has some skills but like Bolasie before him is raw as and will hoepfully develop I like what ive seen of him but It must be hard to get used to english football when you don't get to play it.

But Eliasson did play well in the FA cup game, or against Sheffield United. I think he will be more involved next season. Just like Engvall?.

My point is incredibly simple, he should start ahead of Kent, Kent is not our player and hopefully never will be, his signing was totally unnecessary, we have our player and he needs game time, as I said earlier he must be ruing the day he came to BCFC.

Mr Popodopolous Posted March 10, 2018 Report Share Posted March 10, 2018 Kent in a 4-3-3 would be better IMO. You'd have to drop Diedhiou but something like... Brownhill Smith Pack Kent Paterson Reid Would give unpredictability...both can pull wide, both can come inside- yes Kent can, despite the fact we have played him more of an orthodox winger... The 3 in midfield would also allow us to give Kent and Paterson more license because if the ball is lost, a 3 have a better chance of winning it back than a 2. Plus, with the ability of Kent and Paterson to come inside, we have the potential to overload and dominate most sides in this League centrally. Kent and Paterson as inside forwards...with Reid of course leading the line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry you've completely lost me. Since his arrival how many starts has Kent had compared to Eliasson? and how many sub appearances has Kent made compared to Eliasson?, it was an unnecessary signing of a player who gets greedier every time he plays.

Mr Popodopolous Posted March 10, 2018 Report Share Posted March 10, 2018 1 minute ago, JonDolman said: I've been saying for months that we should be playing 4-3-3/4-1-4-1. We did so against Fulham and we looked solid and created chances. I really think Johnson should look at that game and realise that if we play that way every game, then we have a much better chance of winning. I would have Diedhiou up there though. And we have the perfect player to come in for Diedhiou in Djuric. Both strikers are ideal for the lone role. Yeah, true. Diedhiou is and has been in good form and is undoubtedly an asset- I just have reservations about this 4-4-2 with Brownhill and Paterson out wide, but also able to come inside. I really like the idea of 4-3-3/4-1-4-1 in particlar. agreed. Problem is, who do we drop though? Or is it a case of take Reid behind Diedhiou or Djuric?

We are being outnumbered in midfield in many games. Teams have worked out how to play against us, and we have a great plan B, that Johnson won't go back to for some reason. I'd have the Fulham type line up. With Diedhiou up top and Reid with one other behind. Djuric is much more effective off the bench imo Agreed fully. Fulham's form is incredible...a run of games we all thought might derail them, they have passed with A* IMO. One game they didn't win in that run? At us. With us in the very setup you describe.
