Cantiaci Canary 610 Posted January 14, 2006 Tactically speaking, either with the group of (ever decreasing) fit players in the squad or with a (will it ever happen) entirely fit squad for selection if you could make ONE tactical alteration to the way that Worthy fields his teams what would it be? ... and I don''t mean substitute the boss in the dug out!

still holding out for new heroes 0 Posted January 14, 2006 Green to give it to the full back, rather than the launch down the middle Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sheded 0 Posted January 14, 2006 Yep ! play Huckerby alongside Ashton .... jaysus , he`s a better striker for a start ! [6] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
canary_yellow4ever 0 Posted January 14, 2006 where does one start... assuming everyone is fit..... GK: Ward RB: Jarvis CB: Doherty CB: Shackell LB: Drury DM: SafriRW: Henderson LW: Huckerby AM: Hughes CF: Ashton CF: McVeighFor subs i''d have Green, Fleming, Etuhu, McKenzie and JarvisI cant think of making only one change, it would never be enough. Change the shape to an attacking diamond and give Green a rest. Ward is an international and a worthy deputy. Give McVeigh a new contract and play him up front. Sell Jarrett to Plymouth as they love him so much. Dont buy Robinson.Possibly consider selling Ashton if we can get 7.5 for him. That money could easily be reivested in at least 3 decent players... Maybe Calum Davidson, McSheffery and a right sided midfielder who is not afraid to take a man on... Maybe try Spillane out there? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Misery Guts 0 Posted January 14, 2006 play with an extra man in midfield meaning Deano on his own upfront , I think we get bossed around in that department far too often, we could play the chelsea way believe it or not and have... GreenDrury Flemming Doc Colin Safri Etuhu Jarret Mcveigh Huckerby Ashton without the ball and then push Hucks and Mcveigh up into a more potent 4-3-3 when in posession.

lee short 0 Posted January 14, 2006 i dont know why but every time green gets the ball he hoofs it up the field and 8 times out of 10 he kicks it to hucks who has never headed a ball in his life!!!! every time we hoof it then becomes a 50-50 ball. why not keep hold of it and pass it around and work our way up the field like a football team should do. WHY DID WE GET RID OF EDWORTHY??!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sing up the river end 0 Posted January 15, 2006 I would have to say McVeigh goes missing too much in games when playingout wide and is much more of a threat down the middle.Surely if we had£2 million for a bid for Morrison at the start of the season we stillhave £1 mil left sell Green £2 mil hopefully buy in Koumas(750k ish)Wright (200k ish) Davenport(750k ish) and a right midfielder for about1.2 mil Ward Wright Shacknall Davenport Drury (????) Safri Koumas Hucks Ashton McVeighsubs: McKenzie,Jarvis,Doherty,Jarret,LewisThink that has a lot more of a ballanced look to it myself. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dizzy Rascal 0 Posted January 15, 2006 We should be playing attacking football with the players we have. Putting Hucks and McVeigh on either side of a 4-3-3 should be working. Does anyone know when McKenzie''s going to be back? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
breaker 0 Posted January 15, 2006 A bit radical I know but I have it in good authority that Leon has played a lot in this position during training and looked brilliant. GreenColin Doherty Shackell Drury Safri Etuhu Huckerby McKenzie McVeigh AshtonSubs: Ward, Fleming, Rossi Jarvis, Spillane, Charlton Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rossi 0 Posted January 15, 2006 without going down the team selection route and hence not opening a can of worms i would say set pieces - we are dire at them.steve hale - if you think those players are available for those fees you are miles away. Baggies want £1.5m for Koumas minimum, the Wright bid fell through due to Wigan valuation (hardly 200k) Davenport £1m+.the £2m for Morrison was never that in the first place -£1.2m, so even by your calculations that exclude additinal wages spent on loan players we only have £200k.
