Mr. Snrub Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 Fair play and total respect to Hughton, he's just got on with the job in hand regardless of what's going on around him. Still shouldn't get it full time, though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

chicago_shearer Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 A real shame, because there are a probably a few smug 'See, told you Hughton was just lucky, shocking performance from him, tactical idiot, poor substitutions' posts that are going to have to wait yet another week.

I said at the weekend that we should start the first team back four. I feel vindicated tbh, we sounded like an absolute shambles at the back Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jayson Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 Yep risked less players to injury & learnt more about the realistic ability of others. Dont think it could have gone much better really, ofcourse it would probably have been much easier with more first team players playing. We've gotten more out of it doing it this way.

Guest neesy111 Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 this could be similar to the roeder situation Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilko Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 Hughton deserves praise for the way he's deployed Nolan this season, pushing him forward to support the strikers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel vindicated tbh, we sounded like an absolute shambles at the back What if they got injured? it's a risk but i'd happily have taken, they're a pretty robust lot, especially Taylor and Coloccini. For a variety of fairly superficial reasons I have no confidence in the reserves Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

For a variety of fairly superficial reasons I have no confidence in the reserves We were woeful at the back mate. Kadar and Simpson were lost at centre half and Krul looked massively less confident because of it. Kadar certainly could have done without his first team debut being made next to an out of position right back. They weren't helped by Nicky Butts horribly inept performance first half and did look a bit more solid when we went to 4-4-2. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'll have been because this was his first game back since Darlo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Stephen927 Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 Simpson simply isn't a centre half. Was very poor in the air, seemed rushed in possession. Kadar wasn't too much better but he had a bit of clever play with Enrique and looked to carry it forward a few times but seemed to lack the confidence, like Ranger and Lua Lua.

Ronaldo Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 I actually cannot believe that Simpson was played at CB. His listing at 5'9 seems generous to me and he's slightly built to boot. Is Tozer actually as bad as the indications suggest? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tooj Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 Hughton deserves praise for the way he's deployed Nolan this season, pushing him forward to support the strikers. What about the times when all of the strikers have been fit and he has played him central midfield? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This although the possible injuries to Shola and Jonas arent good. Hopefully will be ok for Monday. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
