I agree. So what do we do about it? Newcastle new players will take time to settle. Derby are good though. But I think they are not quick enough in midfield? We will soon know. I think the answer is to play 4-4-1-1 against Derby and Newcastle. But who plays behind our front man? Last...

If the forwards are the only two players with any space, it will encourage the defender, who has the ball, to knock it long as there’s no other pass available. Read more at http://www.fourfourtwo.com/performance/tactics/how-make-opposition-play-long-ball-game#0Fx5Z62Sp3uEGTr3.99 I would like to...

Even the best teams that go up and usually short of a couple of players. So that is about where we are. The other clubs are not making spectacular signings so I think we are in with a good chance. I would like a left sided player so we can switch or attack. Not in despair at all at the end of...

Much like my thinking. In the absence of an outstanding second striker, it might be an easier and better option to get one of our seven plus winger/strikers to play a more central role forward and learn how to run into space as well as receiving the ball at their feet. Also going nearer goal...

Nearly got over Barry Lloyd presiding over the sale of our best players in the eighties.
