Good post revived red.you nail a lot of good points.Couple of general questions,why are we playing 4-4-2 as its years since we did ?, is it to accommodate wide players?.
If you want to build a solid defensive base.you don't open the game up,and 4-4-2 does that,indeed not many successful teams play that way,and since we have put our extra man up front and wingers staying wide,your asking for trouble,and we're not even creating much as a result.
Coley has made Rochdale a hard team to beat now,and it's not by playing two up top.
I believe cooky is a better coach IMHO,so it's a mystery why he's changed thinks so quickly.
It maybe because we have points on the board,therefore he can experiment,that's the only reason I can think of.
