MacBoyd 5,632 Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 The fan fare he gets is Bizzare. Decent finisher but not nearly good enough to lead the line. Even when morelos is up with him he is anonymous. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Prso's headband 35,913 Posted March 17, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted March 17, 2018 Cummings is a good player. A penalty box striker with the odd good strike from outside the box Play him up front on his own with the build he has and you’re not using his strengths. No idea what people are expecting when he’s leading the line himself. Cummings wishes he was as powerful and as strong as Morelos. Morelos wishes he could finish like Cummings. Mental we don’t play the two of them. Courtyard Bear, Band of Brothers, SeparateEntityMyArse and 26 others 29 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post K.A.I 36,183 Posted March 17, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted March 17, 2018 Agree with the above - we absolutely need to play with 2-strikers. We haven't and it's criminal. Of course it means dropping either Windass, Candaies or Murphy but let's have some balls and drop 1 for the better of the team and our formation but it wreaks of trying to accommodate favourites. We need to make tough decisions for the good of the team - but we don't. 2 up front for me both Morelos and Cummings - let them strike up an understanding.

Billy1984 6,314 Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 Harsh on a player who's had limited game time all season. Will reserve judgement until after I see him with a pre season and a run of games under his belt. Think there's a player in there though. minstral and Robmc1 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbm26896 995 Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 Should never play as a lone striker , Best finisher at the club , but needs to play in a 2 upfront , not on his own. Poor game today, Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

steven33jackie 1,972 Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 Anybody surprised by this, he scored a hatrick against Falkirk and suddenly he becomes a definite starter to some. But look at his record a large percentage of his goals are from the championship. Falkirk were simply his level. He may improve in time but at the moment he is a squad player. Murty simply showed his lack of experience again by buying into the fanfare of Cummings support and starting him today and at the same time probably alienating himself to the clubs top scorer. coopscracker 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MasterD 7,446 Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 He's a decent player if played to his strengths. He's rarely kicked a ball this season which doesn't help him or us. Although I do agree with the fanfare comment. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inigo 32,675 Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 4-4-2. Dropping Windass and finding a central midfield is the way to go. I always liked the Advocaat way of 2 centre mids, one winger and one wide midfielder. Think we have the makings of a squad to go that way.

bam74 1,039 Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 jury's still out for me but I think he's been hungout to dry today. he is never a lone striker and it's difficult to judge on today's overall performance. The way we set up today he was a direct replacement for Morelos and that's not his game. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RDFM 3,809 Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 We can’t play 4-4-2 but getting them up front together is important. They both have qualities that the other lacks combing in a deadly strike force. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always liked the Advocaat way of 2 centre mids, one winger and one wide midfielder. Think we have the makings of a squad to go that way. Totally agree, been thinking this past month or so tbh. It would give us the numbers in midfield and make us more rigid and also allow us to have 2 strikers to striker up an understanding (something we've not had since Miller and Boyd in 2010-2011) I think Murty is clever but we are over-complicating things big style. It doesn't take a blind man to see our central midfield is weak with zero presence. Right or left midfielders don't need to be wingers. We've had Reyna, Albertz, Gio all play wide and do jobs and they weren't wingers. We need to get the numbers back into midfield and a forward 2 with an understanding. Forget this intricate 4-2-3-1 pish. steven33jackie, 35 Yard Dangerman and Inigo 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
