Re: Fleetwood thread
Now the dust has settled i will try and work out what went wrong!!.
On paper they had a slightly better team than us,but i thought home advantage would cancel that out.
Bdc was right what he said about Parkin.I know hes a big name in this league and he was un-playable last night,6-4tall and a touch/technique to die for,i now know,upto 12 months ago, why he was playing at the top end of the championship(cardiff etc..).
We just couldnt get near him,as his touch and strength were top drawer.
To combat this you have to stop the supply and have a defensive mid on his toes,thats why i dont like 4-4-2,as murph and linganzi had there own men to worry about.Once again,its 4-3-3 for me.
There winger,Brown looked a real handful (already has 12 goals) and i thought Lids played him well and also got forward.
Linganzi,once again grew into the game,and should be given a free role,showing a willingness to get forward.
In the end tho,you cant play with nine men,and Jeffers should have been sent off for pushing his head into someones face(seen it all before)when he realised he wasnt going to get a kick all night.
Beattie and Jeffers havnt done anything for the past five years,even struggled at resis level in the past,and these type of players dont want to try and chase or attempt to turn bad balls into good ones,i ve seen it all before,and football people see straight thro it.
One thing to come out of it,is our young centre backs will learn from playing against a quality player at the top of his game,and thats why there centre backs were outstanding,as they have to mark him in training every day !!
