The club set expectations in the summer with the downsizing and the new contract for the manager. Not sure what the support were expecting. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uilleam 5,929 Posted October 23 Share Posted October 23 Duncan Ferguson is available. Could hold the fort until summer, when we could set up a double team of him and Kevin Muscat. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But does anyone think the manager is going to come out and explain in any detail what his gameplan is and how we will beat teams? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He gave PC an out. PC has a point - too many sideways passes or too many long balls. Which is it? He should have just stuck to long balls. It was a good idea to ask about style, though. We don't get that often. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

PC has a point - too many sideways passes or too many long balls. Which is it? He should have just stuck to long balls. But we do both. He is right. We pass the ball about at the back, realise teams wont be drawn out into pressing us then play direct longer. I still think it would work better if we had Prso / Jelavic / Cousin / Morelos up front. But we don't. He's also asked in the past why we are so easy to play through (one or two passes straight down the middle can cut us open). The manager didn't give an answer to it, just fluffed around it. The answer is pretty obvious to me that we play in a way that leaves us open but if players win the duels then it should be an issue. Soutter lost his on Sunday and we lost the game. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
