Well it’s awful for us and that’s all that matters.It seemed to work pretty well in this league last season.
BackingLyons on the right and a left footed wingback on the left so we can actually get balls into the box
We simply can't create enough with this inverted nonsense
I would rather have DT play on the left
The other problem is creativity in midfield, we don't have any
We need a proper creative number 10 who has skill and who isn't afraid to take risks
This isn't hindsight or or kneee jerk reaction like most of the other shite I've read, i also dont need coaching qualifications like Critchley to see plainly what the issues are
Sort it out asap or it's going to be a difficult long hard season
oh and sacking the manager isn't going to happen he needs backing not sacking
he certainly needs one that’s for sure.You're asking for the obvious, yet NC can't see it. If he refuses to see it what do you do? The very least is force a No 2 on him who won't be a nodding dog.
It was so obvious the day he started he needed a No 2. Why didn't SS (or advisors) see that? One thing for sure is that if NC gets moved on (and I agree it's doubtful), then as I said yesterday The Meanley Warriors should reform for one last gig and kidnap SS so he has nothing to do with choosing a new manager.
He needs someone like CalderwoodLyons on the right and a left footed wingback on the left so we can actually get balls into the box

If he needs someone to hold his hand, he shouldn’t be in charge.He needs someone like Calderwood
So on that assumption, Brian Clough would never have been a good Manager then just because he had Peter Taylor as his No 2?If he needs someone to hold his hand, he shouldn’t be in charge.

The difference being BC knew he was better with PT!True
I said at the start of the season that it will be on the manager if we failBacking
I can’t cope with watching Beesley and CJ anymore.
It’s soul destroying.
We need to add people into the squad who can dribble with the ball.
He can’t implement possession based football with CJ Hamilton in the team. Ridiculous.I said at the start of the season that it will be on the manager if we fail
He just tries to be too clever all the time
Chickens are coming home to roost........

I can’t understand when half the World over Heard- you berating Mick McCarthy they didn’t make you manager there and thenLyons on the right and a left footed wingback on the left so we can actually get balls into the box

Absolutely, I appreciate what he’s trying to implement, but having all that possession is useless if you’re not also coaching players to use that possession well, which is already very difficult when we’re using limited players like CJ for a crucial position.He can’t implement possession based football with CJ Hamilton in the team. Ridiculous.
This hole in midfield is a constant since Critchley first came here. Centre circle is a no-go zoneI don't mind playing out from the back in fact I prefer it and I also don't mind 352 either but what you have to do is be ruthless and replace the players who can't do it. That for us means about 5 players replaced with quality to do what he wants. That isn't realistically going to happen though. As it is the midfield is the wierd area for me with Critch though because despite playing 3 there we only ever actually have Norburn there. The other 2 are always wide so there's a big hole in midfield. It must be by design cos no matter who plays there it's the same. Baffling.
Bring me the head of shite entertainment.We've got a Sporting Director (albeit we only play one sport), a Head of data analysis, a head of recruitment. Simon Sadler seems to love having departmental heads of all sorts. How about a Head of goal scoring; charged with identifying solutions for putting the ball inside the area bounded by the pitch, goalposts and cross bar.
