madras Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 dunno like, ';ve been railing against the avowed desire of many on here screaming for wingers and 4-4-2 for long enough (in fact my very first post on a message board was about back in the days of.nu.......................how the f*** do i remember these things ?) You clicked on 'search'? Anyway, wingers are essential. A second striker may not be, so long as the foremost attacking midfielder is Ben Arfa as opposed to Kevin Nolan. clicked on search ? ....what are you on about ?. .nu was a board three or so versions before this one. edit. oh wingers arent essential,creating space through width is (unless you are describing pires and ljungberg as "wingers" ?) I think with so much reliance on Carroll, (who's primarily an aerial threat) we need two fairly conventional wingers in the side. so because carroll has come to the fore in the last 9 month or so, thats vindication for wanting wingers all the time since gillespie/ginola........thats what i'm getting at. (i'd like to add that i think carroll is much better on the deck than he;s given credit for) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 I was referring to our current side/system, not football in general. Carroll's far better in the air than he is on the deck. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carroll's far better in the air than he is on the deck. depends, carroll is better on the deck outside the box, better in the air inside the box.

Ronaldo Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 He isn't a potent threat from outside the box. In the box he has the potential to be dynamite. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
madras Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 He isn't a potent threat from outside the box. In the box he has the potential to be dynamite. hes not a goal scoring threat outside the box but sheareresque in the way that the best balls put into the box last season were from him.

madras Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 Routledge. nope, carroll when wide,especially left, puts in fantastic balls,both in the air and on the deck...............loven could have had a hat trick in one game off carrolls passing.

Guest ObiChrisKenobi Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 Man, it really was. Just seems odd, though to be honest, last season the crowds only picked up towards the end when people realised we were winning/going to win the league. Last home game surprised me at how all these people had returned from no where for a full house. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
