This needs to happen at times. Especially when we’re chasing a goal. Draws killed off our title hopes last season we NEED to win games. Gerrard needs to show a bit more balls at times and throw more bodies forward. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn’t even say we’re playing 4-3-3 right now as Arfield isn’t really playing on the right wing at all so we’ve got this weird disjointed formation that you couldn’t really explain in numbers like that where Tav is covering the full right side meaning a midfielder (Jack or Kamara) has to drop in and cover and you’ve got zero creativity. If we’re going to play that way I do wonder if it would be better moving the wide player to the right as all Ojo seems to do is get in Borna’s way Arfield can’t create and Ojo is useless so on a day like today that leaves you back to last seasons tactics of give the ball to Morelos and hope for the best when your midfield 3 are sitting so deep Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ibroxholm 2,274 Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 Regressed back to last year, just punting the ball in from the fullback area. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluepeter9 5,167 Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 Love these threads - great wee run in Europe, many points ahead of last year at this time, second by only goals scored, and this formation doesn’t work! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobertN 388 Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 This front three never look like scoring but he keeps playing them That is a definition of madness doing the same thing and expecting different results I think we miss Arfield.s graft in the middle as well Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
