Gersnet End of Season Review

[Jon 0]

I agree with Once a Ranger...Im concerned of our lack of attacking play and have been for a while. Having Ferguson support 1 striker is a no-go IMO. They really must be doing something different in training compared to games.

 

Agree with a great review.

 

Regarding BF, the best I remember seeing him play was the season he scored 17+ goals (cant remember exactly), that was under Advocat though. Much maligned now and a sour end but by god did he give us some good players and performances, attractive and attacking.

 

As you say, I'd rather win the title playing ugly at the moment but wish we could do it killing teams an scoring bucket loads.

 

Hope this makes sense

The best I saw BF was when Advocaat came, he was only 20 then and in the midfield with Albertz, Gio, Tugay etc he was superb. But at that time he wasnt the central attention and this made his game better IMO.

 

In 2002/03 under Eck he played along side De Boer and got 17 goals although about 9 were pens. Still, he was a better player and again he wasnt centre of everything.

 

IMO he has went downhill since returning and being handed the captaincy straight away.

 

As for winning the title and playing the way we do, those 2 dont have to be exclusive from each other. I just wish we would be more positive and actually have more faith in the players we have to attack more. I have no doubts that most SPL sides would not be able to handle us if we pounded them. But we would probably see the pattern of sides going back to play 10 behind the ball against us. In the last 2 seasons teams havent been afraid to play us and knock the ball about - we need to install fear into the opposition again.
