I think our players would fit a narrow diamond perfectly as was shown in various games last season. Damn it, i was just typing this in when you beat me to it. I think LJ's options have been slightly limited up front previously which may have led to the focus of one up top, as he has brought wilbs on late to help tammy out with two up front. Yet now to LJ's squad rotation in the cup (tensing for the backlash) we have a fit second striker to play alongside tammy, or the option to at least. would fit our short, quick passing game. I know patterson can play up front, but an out and out striker like gustav would be a considerable aid to our threat infront of goal. Would like to see tomlin as the tip of the diamond and gon as the base, with the other two as maybe reid and/or whoever LJ thinks supplies the strengths he needs there, ie korey for a bit of muscle and fight and calm play, or o'odowda/patterson to drift wide and open up their midfield. Options,options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toffee dog Posted October 28, 2016 Report Share Posted October 28, 2016 Like the formation & its change ability, Tammy still learning role & full backs need to up their game. when if/it clicks could be very entertaining. Really enjoyed 2nd half against Villa. Interested to see what team & formation is picked for tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not read the replies before posting, but here goes... There's 541 of you. Plus pay on the day. When the players and coaches come out, it will be 100% cheering etc. There will be no booing of Lee Johnson. We have a scoreboard, a new one, but I wouldn't call it big. And it doesn't show live action. You won't be able to see it, all 541 of you plus pay on the day. Hordes? 541 of you plus pay on the day. Northampton brought more in the cup for God's sake.

When it comes to defensive duties and tracking back...having two playing higher up and Tomlin, then I can only see us being overrun in midfield. Playing attacking midfielders seems to work when playing Tomlin. If you were to drop Tomlin to the bench, and lets face it, that's not likely to happen, then I could see an opportunity of starting with Tammy and Engval up front. I can however see us adopting a sort of 352 later in games if we were chasing it.

Like you say...options, options...it's great to have them :-) The other is perhaps a 442, with `Tomlin floating in from the left. When I look at the team the only real frustration is that none of our wide midfielders have made the spot their own. Think Paterson will play more often than not on the right, and maybe the left side is complicated by Joe Bryan and the rotation of him at LB.. injuries aside I would say LJ has tinkered a little but mire than he needs to. Apart from Freeman's injury he's now got pretty much everyone back and chomping at the bit, in an important month of games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spudski Posted October 29, 2016 Report Share Posted October 29, 2016 At times we pretty much play that with Tomlin playing the number '10' role...coming deeper when needed. We are definitely playing more narrow, which tbh, a lot of good teams are nowadays. The great thing about us now is we have a plan, but continually adapt during a game if we have. Sign of a good team and manager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
