Awol Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 We’re looking like strangers half the time. Buendia for Ollie, Nakamba for Ramsey. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Inspiration Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 I’d get Ramsey off being on the yellow and Ollie looks devoid of confidence, bring on Bertie and emi either side of ings for a bit more ball retention and creativity Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BleedClaretAndBlue Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 After the Lord Mayor’s show. Sort of expected it. Spurs have been crap too and we’re not out of it yet. At least we have some exciting options off the bench. Konsa best player on the pitch for us atm 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillanousOne Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 Ings isolated, Watkins the touch of a rapist. We either need to take Ramsey off and try and get them better service with Buendia or just take one of them off for Buendia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaVilla Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 we have zero creativity and it shows, i think the lack of creativity looks even worse when the team seems not to be able to string 2 passes together as well. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IrishVilla10 Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 Ramsey has to be taken off, not getting on the ball enough and on a booking. Get Buendia on ASAP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spoony Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 Surprised there’s so much negativity in here. We’ve been playing ok just need to sharpen up in the final third. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kuwabatake Sanjuro Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 Could do with Ashley Young's composure on the ball, have the opportunity of a free sub with Targett's bang on the head too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It never looked like a partnership and so its proving. Watkins seems to need an age to tee himself up for a shot - and Ings isn't getting the ball. Both good players but weve nullified both of them. It has to be one or the other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talldarkandransome Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 We don't seem to be winning any battles and it's all a bit squiffy. We are making Spuds look very good. I don't see the 2nd half being the same Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villalad21 Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 We only have 2 attacking players on the pitch so no wonder we struggle with creativity Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobzy Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 Just now, Keener window-cleaner said: Time to ditch this formation now, we can play it against City and Pool away, but not against the others. We have no creativity, just kick and run, Ings and Watkins dont get any quality balls at all to work with, and we have Bunedia and Traore on the bench. Ramsey is a weak link for us, if we need to continue with this formation then Buendia must come in for him now. In fairness to the formation, they haven't really created anything of note. Bar a poor pass from McGinn, it's been pretty "comfortable" defensively. Exactly the same as against Man Utd where they had all the ball and loads of shots but mostly from distance or not clear cut opportunities. The problem is that, unlike against Man Utd, we're not being smart when we're on the ball. The midfield has been poor (although McGinn got better towards the end) and Watkins has looked well off the boil. I think the formation suits us well overall. However, we also have the ability to switch up when it isn't working and there's certainly some validity in bringing some width into this game - particularly as we're playing quite a few balls into the channels. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caddy Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 6 minutes ago, StefanAVFC said: So if you forget 3 goals in 3 games we haven't scored any? I admit it's a bit cherry-picked, just think it highlights that this 3-5-2 is still pretty turgid going forward and the only time that hasn't looked the case in the last month is A. when Bailey was having a riot, and B. against Chelsea in the LC, when we played a 4-3-3 anyways. I love we're capable of playing like this in games like last weekend where the low block is key (and we have the resolute defending for it), but this isn't one of those games IMO.
