    ------------------ Friedel ----------------------

    Cueallar- --- Collins -- Dunne --- Walker ---

    --------- ---------

    Downing-----Petrov--------Young --------Albrighton -

    ---------- Gabby--- Bent ---------

    DEFENSE- Solid Physical defense (3 centre backs) - Dominates headers, tackle and blocks from set pieces attacking and defending!

    MIDFIELD - Play with width and pace get the balls out wide, creativity needed in the centre and captain in the middle!

    ATTACK - Simple our two best attackers!

    Lets be honest playing with 2 holding defenders at home to stoke when you have just taken your best attacking player off after 68 mins is not the sensible thing to do!

    Lastly - Leave your best players on the pitch!

    Was downing injured during Stoke...?

    A CB at RB,

    a RB at Lb,

    A LW at CM,

    A LW on RW,

    and a RW on LW.

    Genius!

    Thanks.

    Tell me this specifically:-

    - Did we play with three centre backs last season, what was our defensive record like last year?

    - Has luke young (a right back) been able to do a job at left back, there is no reasons why Walker cant if he is as good as people make him out to be?

    - Are Albrighton and Downing capable of swapping flanks to confuse the opposition...?

    - Has playing two defensive midfielders at benefited us this season?

    -Did we play a Right footed player Ahsley Young on the Left wing last

    year.

    Look foward to hearing your answers....!

    I think this signing has been a side ways signing. We already have perfectly capable midfielders who play the a very similar role Petrov, NRC, Delph and Johnson.

    He had an average game today a great through ball to Bent who was onside, But gave the ball alway far too much. Petrov is Villas key midfielder, the last three season tell us that.

    Although he is miles better that Pires - that really is a shocker and a backwards signing!

    Hi General,

    Nice work for being the 13th President of Birmingham-Southern College - good luck with it all?

    For whatever the reason is and I can go into a few reasons but I wont the players are obviously not performing on the pitch.

    With an " excellent squad of players" Would there be any any chance that you could come over for a game and give an inspirational team talk (training ground or before game) and hopefully get them to play excellent. I really feel that this could help in a time when we need it most. Your experience, knowledge and general whoop ass football attitude is needed....?

    Pretty please...!

    Thanks again for listening to the fans!

    Without making too many excuses today we were missing three big centre backs. Which made a hidge differnce. All though I still really fancied us to get a result there.

    I when we started playing a CB at RB a few years ago, I did not understand the logic, but i grew to love the 3 CBS, as we has one of the best defenses.

    We need to start playing with 3 CBS and LB this is evident from our defending today and the rest of the season. Are there any people that think we should still play 2 CBs?

    Let me have a think about that for a micro second. No, I don't think we should have 3 centre backs. If that was the route to success then Ferguson, Wenger, Redknapp, Ancelotti and Mancini plus quite a few others must be getting it wrong year upon year.

    So are you comparing us on a like to like basis with United, Arsenal City ect.

    We are knowhere as good as those teams - thats the point. If we had the players that those teams had then I would def say you are right but we dont.

    Whats your evidence for this? Heres mine...!

    How Many Goals from corners have we lately?

    How many clean sheets have we kept recently?

    How many set pieces have we conceded from lately?

    Was our defense better this year or last year....!

    Yardi Yarda Yardi....!

    Although Walker does look quality...!

    Yardi Yarda Yardi.... how very immature.

    So you think having 3 centre backs and a left back is the way we should play? Why not 3 centre backs and a right back or is it that we are okay at left back and weak on the right side s a centre back at right full back is the solution. Be interested to know your experience as a player, coach and manager.

    This is only my opinion and it does not mean I am right, are forums not about people opinions...!

    What I think is this:

    We need to improve our defense massively.We need to be able to win headers from set pieces. as well as when we have set pieces (it seems ages since we last scored from a corner). We need to win more 50/50s and dominate tackles and blocks and be more physical. I think that 3 center backs would help us to do this. Our records from the last few years show that we have had an awesome defense where we would do all the above on a regular basis. Hence finishing 6th and getting to Wembley twice. This season has been the opposite and we have rarely played with three center backs. I am not saying its as simple as this as there is more to it.

    You have to be a top coach, player or Manager to notice that something needs to be done defensively within the team, is that the point you were trying to make?

    You could be right with 3 centre backs and a right back.

    Who would you like to see starting defense?

    Would you agree that some thing needs to be done with the defense?

    Apologies if you were offended by the Yardi Yarda Yarda, did not mean anything by it!!!
