If O`Grady has to be wide left 90% of the game then I would rather see Paddy on the right wing and not directly behind him. These are the 2 players the opposition want to keep quiet so lets make it more difficult by putting them on opposite flanks and not in the same 10 square yards.
I'm afraid we're starting to see another player suffering from how he's being asked to play. Holding up three defenders on the wing, back to goal for 90 minutes, is not going to score us many goals. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Unless we okay one up front which I'm not necessarily against we have no one to replace him. All strikers have spells. His goals record is second to none.
It's only been a recent thing this left wing role he's playing. Not saying he never drifted wide before, he did, but he's practically stationed there from minute one these days. I remember the Huddersfield game where we played 3-5-2 and Reuben dazzled, and COG and Peds were central, like a proper strike duo, and scored, both of em. Ahhhh. Memories.
the most frustrating thing about the system is that there is no striker to be seen anywhere in the box. it's all well and good TK pinging his 50th pass of the game down the line to COG to hold up in the corner, to play in the winger who then crosses the ball to absolutely no one. sure Flicker can see this?
What I`ve seen this season YT is the same from O`Grady, starting position out wide when Keeper has ball in hands, nowts changed he went central for a few first half Saturday one resulting in a flick on which Pedersen was running onto but outmuscled by the defender. Early season it were a triangle of Kennedy O`Grady and Perkins trying to create a chance for crossing to Daggers on his own int box. Recently he hasn`t had the ball at feet as much as he did earlier in season.
