Anybody defending this team selection?

Christ almighty.

Is he going for a Craig Levein 4-6-0? At home?

I've got an idea. Let's make sure we've only got one decent, proven at this level striker. One with a one in two record.

And then let's not even play him.

I'm sorry, I hope we win today but even if we do it will be a boring, turgid, awful game. I don't imagine we will win that said, but here's hoping.

 

I'll stick my neck out and say I like it. 4-5-1 I imagine, with Harris and Williams wide?

Watkins on his own up front, I'm guessing... He's good at holding up the ball and has a bit of pace.

 

What do you reckon now Troff? ;-)

 

Sounds like a forced change and playing better since it.

 

humble pie ?

Well done to Lee Jay?


Both I'd say .

I' certainly agree with the OP comments but top marks to Mr Lee Jay and the Team from me Today!

Just a shame I haven't witnessed it

Damn n Blast !!!!!!

 

Yes he obviously got lucky we can still critisie him. Give him some credit for once changed team up and it's worked winnall needed dropping from previous games.

 

Me neither pal, maybe it's us ;-)

 

Oops

 

I thought Williams went off injured early on?

 

Not a forced change he wasn't injured just playing carp. And then winnall was brought on

 

Credit where it's due. Very good today. I'm surprised and delighted in equal measure.

Still not a fan of one up front - though it does work better when the one up is a genuine centre forward...

It also worked better with hourihane supporting centrally and two wide men getting up. Scowen doing the dog work. Yes it's the makings of a good side with smith to come too.

I've never asked for him to be sacked, just for him to learn and improve. I'm still yet to be convinced, more performances like today and I will be.

 

Oh and further credit goes to him for recognising early on that it wasn't working, Williams didn't look injured, just off pace and out of his depth. Maybe a week too soon for him.

I have been asking for him to recognise when he gets it wrong. He did today and changed it after less than half an hour.

Well done Mr Johnson, and to all the side.

 

Agree he deserves credit but part of that credit is for bringing winnall on. We were better with him up top than Watkins. Williams was a problem, he's not ready, LJ saw that and took him off. Fair play to him. Got it right today in that way.

Wish he'd pick a pit of centre halves and a keeper as first choice and stick to them, we might not suffer embarrassing communication breakdowns then. Though let's not let that spoil what has been the best day of the season by far, and like I say, all this with Michael Smith to come. Proper player that lad.
