andy schmitz 0 Posted January 18, 2005 You simply can never play a true 4-4-2 with Hucks in the side. He is not disciplined enough to fulfill the role necessary. Having said that and trying to address a lot of the concerns on here and taking into account injuries how about:...............................................Green................................................................Flem......................Doc..................Shack......................Eddie................................................................................Brennan.............................Jonson..................Francis...........................................................................Hucks..........................................................................Ashton............................Crow/Leon............................5 on defense when Boro have the ball. Jonson tough enough to play the middle and will hold back when Damo goes up and vice versa. Hucks is neither a winger nor striker so let him be both in a free role behind the two. Ashton gets a partner. Brennan protects on the left instead of isolating left back. Shack gets his chance in best spot. Might sneak a 1-0 as its a strong defensive team.

Anderz 0 Posted January 19, 2005 Andy Schmidt, great minds think alike, or something like that because I went for the same formation, albeit with slightly different players playing in certain positions (see http://new.pinkun.com/forums/shwmessage.aspx?ForumID=63&MessageID=136967&TopicPage=3) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Morph 19 Posted January 19, 2005 Warning major cynic alert!!!!Andy I''d go with that formation as well. However, I would say that is too continental for Worthy to ever consider such a formation ;-)"Can''t ever have five at the back. Four that''s all you ever need."And no that isn''t a quote from Worthy, but it could be......BTW, has he ever played five at the back? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
