triggs Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 For this particular game it isn't a bad idea to play this kind of set up given that we'll be able to counter like against Spurs and Liverpool. The problem is that if it works again McClaren is so thick that he'll think it will work against all teams and do the same again the next game Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanji Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 The walking heart attack on BBC Newcastle reckons it's Perez out wide and Gini off Mitrovic. That at be a bit better, seen nothing of Wijnaldum to suggest he is a number 10 like. Would like Sissoko dropped in there short term with Perez right, Thauvin left and Wijnaldum in centre Not seen anything to suggest the guy who's scored from advanced central positions to not play there? Huh? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 Jabba and Ando picking up on McClaren's constant mumblings that we create chances, saying they've been at every game and we just don't. Jabba needs to pull him up on it at some point. No good just crying into his kebab about it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ouch! Your team selection is woeful... Potentially the only one worse than Steve has picked! Sissoko up front? Perez right wing? Sissoko as more of a number 10 actually.

In all fairness our chances were headers and are not classed as shot on target. Shots on target is a misleading stat, keep hitting them from 35 yards out and it's classed as a shot on target when the keeper gathers it. We were much better in the 2nd half in that game, the first half was terrible. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stifler Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 As if we are going to have a chance to attack. Fair enough they might look impressive when their up against Colo in the warm up, different kettle of fish during a match against Arsenal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KaKa Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 Wouldn't mind that actually. Perez is more adept at running at people out wide and will provide more width when needed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stifler Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 Is playing players in their correct position such a daft idea? No, but we saw this with Pardew, he played them in their correct positions against teams he knew they wouldn't have a chance of gaining possession, then dropped the whole idea.
