The Casual Connoisseur Posted July 27, 2004 Report Share Posted July 27, 2004 I think Miller could have played as a target man. More should have been done to improve his strength in the pre season, he is still vert lightweight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

albany P reds Posted July 27, 2004 Report Share Posted July 27, 2004 If your playing 4-3-3, you shouldn't need a target man. ← The thinking is that with a front 3 the central striker should be the target man. i.e. hold the ball up and the other 2 feed off, otherwise you'd have 3 strikers running with there back to the ball.

Riaz Posted July 27, 2004 Report Share Posted July 27, 2004 Why not try Clayton Fortune as target man........ he's played up front before??????? Maybe not then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ballwinningcentrehalf Posted July 27, 2004 Report Share Posted July 27, 2004 I'd still love us to sign Luke Beckett, but with the amount of money they'd probably want coupled with what we have already spent I cant see it happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stylus Posted July 27, 2004 Report Share Posted July 27, 2004 Miller is a target man but i have no idea how bloody Peacock was a target man anyways. He never won the ball or headed it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest willgas83 Posted July 27, 2004 Report Share Posted July 27, 2004 WILL GAS how do you work that 1 out! You have one big target man and 2 that work off him.... no clue what so ever ← If, you play 4-3-3, you won't need a target man because you won't need to hold up the ball for other players to join in the move. You will already have two strikers to pass too. The only reason they hold up the ball in a 4-4-2, is because they need to bring the midfield into the game. And I hope for your sake, you wouldn't play the long ball with three up front. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cider red Posted July 28, 2004 Report Share Posted July 28, 2004 I cant beleive i'm saying this but i agree with willgas!! We dont need to play a target man , if we play a target man we CANNOT play heffernan because he isnt the right type of player to work off a target man , he needs players like roberts and murray around him to give him the chances , he doesnt do any running so he wouldnt be able to work off a target man. Those who have seen him play will know what i'm talking about. The three that started at yeovil are the three i would start with , roberts and murray do all the work down the wings with the help of woodman and who ever plays at right back and heffernan is the perfect kind of striker to finnish off whatever they create.

albany P reds Posted July 29, 2004 Report Share Posted July 29, 2004 Fair point but that's only been proven in friendlys. I just think that in league games we're going to need somebody to hold the ball up. Even though i'd like to see it, we're not going to be outplaying the opposition every game,so when our backs against the wall a bit, the bigger man up front can ease the pressure. I understand that a ball down the channels to murray or roberts would also do this but a bit of variation is needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedM Posted July 29, 2004 Report Share Posted July 29, 2004 From what was said at the Q&A's in the open day yesterday we will be playing 3 up front and Tins feels the type of player he wants could already be here. He mentioned Lee Miller and praised him but admitted he isn't quite the finished article yet, but could be. (That was my understanding anyway).When asked how he was planning to keep 6 strikers happy he said he was going to play 3 then but 3 on the bench and use them as subs! Seriously, he said he was going to use a more attacking style of play. He wants all the forwards to be kept on their toes and looking over their shoulders. He said there isn't much about at the moment, they have enquired about players but they are under contract. He said he wasn't going to buy for the sake of it,the player has to be the right one. And the solution maybe from within. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
port marine red Posted July 29, 2004 Report Share Posted July 29, 2004 Simon Haworth or John Murphy I reckon. Both can score goals at this level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What you are saying maybe true but it is only one style of play. Who knows if heffernan can't adapt his play to suit another style? Do you? He is fulfilling a role that he is being asked to do. That doesn't mean that he can't play other roles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
