Without getting ahead of ourselves prior to the January sales, how should we be lining up;

I'd favour a wide 433 as follows;

Gk - Brown (he's fairly solid and dependable-ish)
DR - SOMEONE NEW
DL - SOMEONE NEW
DC - Hanlon (he'll get better with better players around him)
DC - SOMEONE NEW
MC - Wotherspoon (we need his energy and drive)
MC - Murray (sweeping across the front of the defence, playing simple balls)
MC - McBride (gives us a fair bit of bite in the midfield)
AM - Zemmama (sitting "in the hole")
AL - Riordan (cutting inside, taking people on, having a shot)
AR - De Graaf / Galbraith
FC - Duffy / Trakys (to hopefully finish the chances we make)

Any suggestions as to new signings? Young Stephens ought to get a chance at centre back, but it's probably too soon to put together an inexperienced pairing.

Thoughts?

I think we'd only stand a marginally better chance playing with 12 players. :greengrin

brown
wortherspoon bamba hanlon booth
*sproule* murray *playmaker(like bozzy or s.brown)* zemmama
*target man with work rate(wanted garry o)* riordan

subs
new gk, dickoh, galbraith, rankin, *matty jack*, swanson, *attack minded player st/mid*
get rid of stack, smith, hogg, miller, hart,nish,thicoh, de graff, mcbride. they are all wage robbing, fringe players at best stopping the younger players getting a chance the likes of currie, byrne, taggert, horner, stephens and flynn

i dont believe theres that much wrong BUT !!! there are vital things missing like playmakers, creativity and natural born winners i.e. people who are determined and dont like losing and will drag the team out of our current hell !!!

Just a few alterations.

---------McCann CB CB LB
Zemmama Murray Bamba Miller Riordan
---------------Trakys

(bring in Duffy to make 4-4-2 in certain games)

For me, the defence needs resolved first. Once it is strengthened with new signings, and a few other players return, we should be stronger. The rest of the team will be better off because there will be less worry about us leaking goals.

In the summer, I'd expect to see a couple of new midfielders arrive along with a reliable striker who can head the ball and score goals. Frankly, all these problems could and should have been resolved in the summer by Hughes, but he was too stupid to do anything about it.

There must be about a dozen players edging closer to the door....

If ever there was a time you want to hear about players battling each other in the dressing room, now is it. :fuming:
