Bill 1,788 Posted October 26, 2014 is it not time for Adams to get the players to pace out the distance between them and the other player (like a ref making the 10 yards) so they can keep in positionhow many times did I see two players right close together, or Turner leaving the back four and going into the middle fourthen there was Whittaker spoiling the formation by taking the ball so he was nearly level with Grabban, Lafferty and Howson and at the same time Tettey was almost level with Martin .... which made a 5 1 4 formationis there any wonder that we are not winning games Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hairy Canary 696 Posted October 27, 2014 On a previous discussion you gave me rocks for my opinion about which formation suited us best, saying that there was no such thing and it was down to players adapting to their game to do what was needed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gingerpele 0 Posted October 27, 2014 It''s called fluidity.Can''t actually believe you are moaning about it. It''s the best way to play. Obviously it can cause problems, but so can a rigid formation with no movement, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
star_manic 0 Posted October 27, 2014 Basically all formations should be fluid. An attack using one system should have that system changed when defending. A 4-5-1 can change to a 4-3-3 when on th attack and vice versa. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lake district canary 4,531 Posted October 27, 2014 Go on then City 1st. Tell us what you think - is it the players fault or the manager''s fault the players get out of position?

lake district canary 4,531 Posted October 28, 2014 City 1st likes nothing better than to get a few fishes on the end of his line. It gives him kicks to think he has caught a few people out. Whatever turns him on, I suppose. Bless. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
