4.2.3.1 17:39 - Dec 11 with 1511 views | lmfcblue | is the way forward.. all these numpties thinking 4.4.2 is the most attacking formation obviously don’t know their football. When we play it we just lump it forward. Cov away was the best we’ve played in 45 mins before their manager sussed us out. Control the midfield have patience and get players to know their roles will give us half a chance. PS Pumping long balls to Norwood Jackson has been sussed out | | | | |

Nice one 👠You’re probably another one who thinks 2 forwards is the best attacking option #braindead [Post edited 11 Dec 2019 17:51]

We seem to be able to only manage a maximum of one goal per game however many we have upfront but I do think two up front is a better idea. | | | |

On the other hand, 1-2-3 was easy - apparently "like taking candy from a baby". | |

4.2.3.1 on 20:18 - Dec 11 with 1372 views | cbower | For what it's worth, I think any formation we put out currently will turn out ineffective. Until we have at least one midfield option who is willing to actually turn and carry the ball forward and /or a midfielder who consistently wants to join the forward(s) or, god forbid, get beyond them now and again, I think we will struggle to break the better sides down. | |

2-4-6-8 motorway would be my formation of choice. | |

That would only work for a rugby international played between 1871 and 1876... | |

4.2.3.1 on 09:00 - Dec 12 with 1253 views | MrTown | I do like the 4-2-3-1 formation. Probably the most balanced formation in football imo. Midfield is so important though. 2 pivets have to be willing to tak the ball from the back four and start forward attacks. (Downes and Dozzell probably best options for it). 3 in behind the central striker have to be fluid and break beyond the striker. | |

4.2.3.1 on 09:02 - Dec 12 with 1247 views | Dubtractor | On a more serious note, I like that formation but don't think we have the players to play the wide attacking roles. At least no currently fit. | |

I agree with this. Sears - Bishop - Lankester - as a 3 in behind Keane would be lively and dangerous, all with legs and a willingness to beat a man and get in behind. | |

A fully fit Bishop would make a big difference. Imo he is the best carrier of the ball we have. The three you would have behind Keane is an exciting prospect. Downes and Dozzell behind them gives us a real attacking force.Some would say that is very light defensively. | | | |

I think Downes has to be disciplined to play that deeper role as a real ball winner/ball retriever. Dozzell would play more of a quarter-back role, positionally Dozzell would remain in front of the back four, however ball retrieving probably isn't his trong point so a lot of responsbility would be on Downes, but I think he is more than capable. If it doesn't work you can always bring in the older head of Skuse to do that sweeping role he does well. | |

I would love to see El Mizouni play more, think he has looked good in the no.10 role in the cup, i actually think he is the most natural no.10 we have fit right now who can play between the lines of midfield and defence. | |

4.2.3.1 on 21:52 - Dec 12 with 1105 views | Westcountryblue | I think we should go with a 4-3-3 like Mick did when he had to try and incorporate Sears, Didzy and Murphy into the line up. My midfield three would be Skuse-Bishop-Downes, with Jackson on the right side of the trio, Sears on the left and Norwood or Keane through the centre. Like one of the previous posters mentioned, we miss a ball carrier from midfield and a bit of cut and thrust that Bishop and Sears would give us. | | | |
4.2.3.1 on 04:50 - Dec 13 with 1061 views | harlingblue | People who do not agree with your formation are not numpties! You say that the best that we have played was for 45 minutes minutes, away to Coventry (until their Manager got us sussed)...that is the problem. PL is a very good PR man, but not the greatest tactician and just don't seem to know what formation or team to play to win (especially home games). We are crying out for a Murphy type centre forward to hold up play, that can bring wingers or attacking wing backs into play, while demanding two centre backs to mark him, that great old lump up front for Wycombe Wanderers did that. | | | |
