Tiresias Posted November 29, 2015 Share Posted November 29, 2015 Been poor this season, was one of our better performers at the start of the season but has got worse and worse. Clear evidence of the motivational vacuum that is McClaren Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stottie Posted November 29, 2015 Share Posted November 29, 2015 I thought the same, albeit with him as a right mid with a right back behind him, not as a wing back with us playing 3 CBs. We can't be any worse at 4-4-1-1 than we are at 4-2-3-1. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
morpeth mag Posted November 29, 2015 Share Posted November 29, 2015 3-4-3 with Janmaat the wide right player in the four? Not sure who could play the equivalent position on the left mind. Perez?? IMO we need to find a formation that gets De Jong and Wjnaldum in the team together and they could fill two of the three attacking positions. Sissoko plays CM or not at all.

IMO we need to find a formation that gets De Jong and Wjnaldum in the team together and they could fill two of the three attacking positions. Sissoko plays CM or not at all. Gouffran or Anita could do it albeit not very well. Shane Ferguson who is out on loan is playing well at the moment too. I would just go for a back 3 of Dummett, Lascelles and Mbemba with Janmaat and another as wing backs. Forget about making chances, just aim to stop conceding first. If that means sacrificing a non-performing attacking player so be it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ketsbaia Posted November 29, 2015 Share Posted November 29, 2015 And it's not like we've got wingers anyway, we may as well push Gini into the centre like he should be. I'd definitely try wing backs if it wasn't for the complete lack of left-sided options. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly but is the answer throwing more bad central midfielder and terrible central defenders the answer? We've always been horrible whenever we've tried this little experiment.

James Posted November 29, 2015 Share Posted November 29, 2015 In defence of Janmaat he is actually injured at the moment but playing regardless. So loss of form is understandable Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly but is the answer throwing more bad central midfielder and terrible central defenders the answer? We've always been horrible whenever we've tried this little experiment. I think it's more a case of looking what this squad as it is now is physically and mentally capable of. If we attack in numbers we don't have the pace defensively to cope with an open game. Neither do we have the midfielders who can press a team and push them on the back foot. The only thing we look physically capable of is parking the bus and maybe scoring a goal on the break via Gini or Sissoko. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
