Mick Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 Anita isn't a right back. He plays well in that position, Perch isn't a right back from what I've seen of him but that's where he's playing, again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parky Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 Can't understand not playing Anita at right back either. We really need the wide players to contribute today with two holding midfielders playing - and that should mean switching them over but it won't happen. Anita looks to be our best right back and should be playing in the position. Totally agree. Anita's distribution is far better. Positioning is shocking though. Naturally drifts back in to central midfield. He is Ajax. Perch is fishpond. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deuce Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 Bigi. Anita deserves to keep his place at right-back, mind. Yep. Don't see why we can't trot-out a line-up with a backline of Anita/Perch/Saylor/Santon with Bigi/Tiote/Jonas in midfield. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

nufc4eva Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 Perch just can't play right back not agile enough, good enough for central positions only, ridiculous doing it again after having to change both times, however this time he doesn't have Anita on the pitch, where is the sense in that, him and Williamson alongside each other absolutely terrifies me Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 Anita for Perch apart, which I don't have a major issue with anyway, good team. Possibly an argument for Perch ahead of Williamson. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ketsbaia Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 It's canny funny how Guthrie's on the bench against us. Especially when he'd have probably started for us today! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anita is in so many ways a complete player with good pitch sense. Hate to see him on the bench. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beren Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 Bigi and Tioté Cheick and mini-Cheick They're gonna look so cute together. Fuck sake Jill Edit: Although I can imagine Tiote snapping some Reading clogger for fouling Bigi in a big brother/paternal protection revenge tackle. Well, it's sweet in a way.

Mick Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 Anita for Perch apart, which I don't have a major issue with anyway, good team. Possibly an argument for Perch ahead of Williamson. Our defence today should be Anita right back, Taylor right centre, Perch left centre and Santon at left back. Taylor naturally plays right of centre but has to move to allow Williamson to play where he prefers and Perch would force that move, it's crazy but at least we'll have Williamson for that shit free kick, watch him now score when I've said that. Other than that, Obertan keeping Marveaux off the bench doesn't make any sense at all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 Be interesting to see how Bigi and Tiote share the responsibilities, both defensively and starting attacks. Have they been on the pitch together so far? Can't remember it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATB Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 What happened to Perch playing instead of Willo Would rather go: Anita - Perch - Saylor - Santon Regarding Bigi playing instead of Anita. I just don´t think Anita has been good enough in the middle. So I think it´s the right decision. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiresias Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 Pards prefer Perch cos he reckons he's better defensively even if doesn't offer as much going forward I'd guess. Think Anita looked fine there but would be more at risk of beign muscled off the ball like he was in CM Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Venkman Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 Perch offers a bit more physicality than Anita at right back I suppose, one thing's for sure, Simpson shouldn't be getting his place back. He will though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That makes Anita at the bench even more strange. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
