That Quote From MMc about setting up each game the same 22:57 - Mar 12 with 2155 viewsStNeotsBlue

That's the problem. We got results at Preston and Sheff Wed as the onus is on them to get at us and we're able to hit them on the break but it is never going to work at home where we need to break down the opposition. A midfield three of Skuse, Connolly & Hyam/Gleeson is not going to hurt anyone and is horribly one paced. I have no problem with any of them playing individually but as a combination it is extremely uninspiring. Why is Grant Ward on the naughty step?

Ward is primarily used as a right winger. Thus no starting position for him in a 5-3-2 wingback system.

Good Lord! Whatever is it?

Indeed, but recently he's put in some decent performances in the middle of the park, his preferred position.

As an aside I think he'd be better than Spence or Iorfa as a right wing back, neither of whom fill me with great confidence.

Not sure how good he would be defensively at WB. And he would need to be.

He might go instead of Connolly, but the latter hasn't been doing badly, either. Nobody other than non-scoring Sears and the (injured) Carayol has any pace and ability/willingness to run with the ball. That's not counting Huws, Adeyemi, Dozzell, etc., who are even more injured. Even Ward does not solve that one.

Not sure anyone could be worse than Spence was at WB in the 2nd half on Saturday

Probably contributed to him being subbed.

I think he'd be fine, when you're playing with three centre backs your wing back should have more licence to get up the pitch.

Totally agree that things would be different with a fit Huws or Dozzell. The midfield has been MMc' Achilles heel for a lot of his tenure, with those two fit and firing on all cylinders II'd have us in the play offs this season.

You've taken that quote too literally.

Would he play both in the same side? Doubtful.

That position is one I'd like to see sorted this summer...don't get me wrong, Spence does a job but we need a natural right sided defender. I thought Iorfa would be just the man, sadly not.

I recall Magic having the same issue with doing well away but not so well at home. He said the same thing "I don't m is why,we play the same at home as we do away", he at least then mused on it and added"maybe that's the problem"
