WakefieldVillan Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 Could be a 4-4-2 diamond? Luiz Ramsey McGinn Coutinho Probably not Buendia must not be 100%, no way he wouldn't be starting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

a m ole Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 (edited) 9 minutes ago, OutByEaster? said: Absolutely - but we don't know how bad the alternatives are - perhaps we've tried Chambers at DM in training and he's no good for it, perhaps Sanson looks off the pace when we've put him in, we don't know - we know what we've got isn't clicking, but other than the age old Nakamba principle where a player gets better in the eyes of fans when he's not playing - there's nothing to say that what we have on the bench is going to improve us. Punishing poor performance by dropping players is always a possibility, but bringing in players who make it harder for you to win is cutting off your nose to spite your face. I feel the rigidity of the system is making it harder - we could debut Iroegbunam if he sat deeper with a senior player but it means changing the patterns of play in attack (and therefore defence in this system). We could play Sanson but it means dropping either the new star or the most senior midfielder. It would be more palatable if there was evidence we wanted to change things in midfield or even give players a rest. These back up players can’t be that bad that it’s some huge risk, otherwise we’ve **** up behind the scenes. All our subs should be able to be relied upon, and I also think we should give them that respect. I should say there’s also the demoralising factor to what’s considered the second string - no matter how poorly the ‘first’ XI are playing, you won’t get a chance unless we’re desperate. Poor way to manage a squad. Edited February 26, 2022 by a m ole 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mister_a Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 I’m hoping we’re saving Buendia for the second half, after we let in a stupid shit goal in minute 4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidcow Posted February 26, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted February 26, 2022 Everytime he's taken off Buendia as a sub our forward play has fallen off a cliff. Not starting him is baffling. If he needs to drop an attacking midfielder I'm afraid that man is Coutinho. He's just not going to drop his mate though. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
