Gallowgate Toon Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 Cisse is comfortable as the lone striker though, he just works better with players either side rather than from deep. Yep. It's good to see some pressure applied from journos re: tactics but Edwards is talking rubbish in the main. Considering we played 4-2-3-1 last year, Cisse was pretty much lone striker then and Ben Arfa has barely played as a no. 10 for us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smal Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 journos are a bit daft, aren't they? Cissé's played effectively as the sole striker long before he even joined us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris_R Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 Cisse can play perfectly well as a lone striker. He just struggles as the only fucking attacker. There's a massive difference. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest neesy111 Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 ah the good old days of PK you changed my mind ronnie. i do want fat fred back. Not trying to change anybody's mind, just Kluivert's a very poor example of what you're trying to convey about the FS era. Kluivert was a very good footballer and getting him was an astute piece of business given his pedigree and what we needed at the time - a replacement for Shearer. He could and should have been a success here. Scored 14 goals. Still more than Shola's highest in a season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiotes Witch Doctor Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 I'm sure the coach issue was something he was supposed to deal with at the end of last season, didn't he mention bringing in a set piece specialist to work on corners etc... We need to look at conditioning above all else in my opinion, players look far too leggy after 60 minutes for it just to be the Europe excuse, not to mention the injuries.

TRon Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 Also a sign that we're looking to address things rather than just muddle on though, which is at least a little bit positive. Isn't that just another form of muddling on though? All the big decisions have to made by the manager wrt style, formation, substitutes and general football philosophy. Youc can have wonderful football coaches but if a manager decides to sit back and defend a lead or bring on Shola after 60 mins then it all goes out the window pretty quickly.
