Guest Ecosse83 Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 I wanted M and M to play 2 up becuase they were useless and couldn’t get the team working properly to support the 1 up top. If you have a half decent manager there is nothing wrong with 1 up top at all. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Russ Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 When the alternatives are Keena and Francis then 1 or 2 up front really doesn’t matter tbh. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest I’d tip it was Holt that wanted it. Unfortunately they just weren’t good enough to carry it out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roman_bairn Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 Agree with your first sentence completely. I thought it best to retain them while we were well clear at the top as, although we were shit, we were the best shit in the league and I didn't see any point in binning them at the time. Hindsight's a great thing though and, as it turned out, I was wrong. I don't think we should bin all of the squad though, I think there are several players, i.e. Mutch, Dixon, Kelly, Morrison, Connolly, Keena and possibly Alston & Dowds that could do a job for us next season, if not as starters then as part of the squad. Would also give us some continuity which, as we've discovered in recent seasons, can be quite important.For me it’s about whether they are players you can trust to get you out of it in times of trouble.From what I’ve seen it’s an unequivocal no... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PedroMoutinho Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 We don’t have the players to play 1 up front. It’s all very well saying Man City and Liverpool use that formation but they don’t have Leitch, Fotheringham and Alston as the midfield support. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shadwell Dog Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 (edited) Sneddon on the bench Corzzo must be injured as well. 433 according to Holt. Edited April 24, 2021 by Shadwell Dog 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clear as day it was Holt.... The livi goto formation is 4-5-1 week in week out. Personally think a full time team against every other club should be nowhere near 4-5-1, I understand the it's 4-3-3 debate but ours was nowhere near 4-3-3 in the previous games it was 4-5-1 100% 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Retaining the fucking ball would be a start, and getting width from the full backs to allow the 3 up top to stay a little more narrow and present some actual threat. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russ Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 So Leitch wide left and Fotheringham playing as a 10 then going by Holts pre-match interview. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
