| Are different tactics needed ? 22:34 - Apr 19 with 1313 views | eddiespearitt03 |
The Portsmouth and Middlesborough attacks showed vulnerable Ipswich defending again.
Can we put out a better attacking line up from the start to get enough goals to win. ?
Can we protect a winning position ?
Is it possible to change tactics.and formation ?
We lost games earlier in the season we should not have. |  | | |  |

If you want something that looks a bit less vulnerable and allows Leif to get forward without as much risk then maybe a 3-4-3 variation like this might work. Obviously it's taking out one of the attacking four for an extra centre back to allow Davis that freedom. This then leaves lots of potential choices for those front three spots as most of the squad plays there - so you can use subs to change it up or debate the starting three as you see fit. Not 100pc sure of the best two to pick from Kipre, Furlong and Johnson at RCB and RWB. Thinking back to the early days under KMc of Donacien playing as a roving RCB too, which was great fun at the time... that could be a job for Furlong.

Yep I like that. I don't think we are getting enough out of our number 10 atm so would be happy to move on from that.
That is certainly the formation I would play if we went up. |  |

Imagine we will set up like this more often in the prem. Problem is our squad isn't built for it- with this setup we have no centre back cover, one fullback/wingback cover (who isn't great going forwards) and like 10 attacking players for 3 positions. |  |

We've only got four games to go, so in a way it doesn't matter how much centre back cover we've got. Maybe this might be worth a go at Southampton? We've been getting fairly little out of whoever plays in the central 10 role this season, and I can't see them having any joy there, so perhaps that's a game just to play without the 10 and tighten up at the back. A clean sheet in that match would be priceless. [Post edited 20 Apr 14:02]

It was very noticeable, wasn't it? High balls to that flank, on repeat, for a lot of the first half. |
Can't think why |  | | |

I think its more a personnel issue tbh.
I just think we lack a player in midfield that the game can run through. Today when Boro went 2-1 up the game ran through Morris, he dictated the tempo, he was threading balls through and generally just keeping them ticking.
I have though a lot this season when we start to lose control of the game we dont have anyone who can wrestle it back and put their foot on the ball like a Hackney or a Morris or even a Grimes for Cov. Azor has very many qualities, on the ball he isn't great. Taylor has many qualities and I thought he was good today but he is more of a runner and an 8 than someone who will dictate a game.
Obviously we tried for Hackney but who was the alternative to him because we have nobody who plays a role like he does. [Post edited 19 Apr 22:45]

I was impressed with Morris, I thought he looked a very good player, more dynamic than Matusiwa going forward for sure but did the ugly stuff pretty well too |  |

No but we didn't really have that in the seasons before this one under McKenna either and we managed okay. For all Morsy and Luongo's qualities neither of them were really playmakers. |
Luongo was a cracking footballer though, he was massively underated | |
