chris turner

Some good points there pendle.

I agree Joyce is a good player and I would have him in the the side, but at the expense of Proctor, which as we know will never happen.

I cant believe you are saying Ryan cant pass a ball, he is always up there with is creativity and range of passing. He is the 1st name on my team sheet along with Grant anyway.

I think we all agree our best 3 midfield players are....

Turner Ryan Joyce

for me Proccy, Miles, Mcconville, Mullin ALL just not quite good enough. Tho to achieve what we have is still a remarkable feet under the circumstances.
 
Turner is someone i think seeing from Torquay is a player we have been needing, to run the wings, we dont seem to play the ball down the wings often enough and i think i'd drop miled or procter to put turner on the wings, he would create alot of chances when he gets the ball, midfield Turner, Ryan, Joyce, Grant/Miles
 
Personally I think the team looks more balanced when Chris is playing, I would try changing tactics for tomorrow night. I think that playing Jimmy Ryan and Luke Joyce together would help bring the goals from midfield and playing Grant and Turner on the wings would generate enough crosses for Symes and Kee to score.

I don't think Proccy is good enough at this level being honest, Jimmy Ryan and Luke Joyce are better central midfielders. I think Jimmy excels when he is in the centre and he can chip in with a few goals, Miles needs dropping for a few games and putting Kee in may well liven up the attack.

If we are serious about getting into the play offs then JC needs to change things fast because some of the players appear to have hit a bad patch so it would be a good idea to freshen up the team.
 
J.C. and J.B. have been loyal to the players whom have put us in a good league position this season, but i felt that we needed to change and freshen things up after the Macclesfield game .I would put Granty on the left ,Chris on the right with Billy up front with Symes and with Proccy and Ryan in the middle . Although not massive changes might be enough to get us out of this blip
 
welcome aboard ROI.

two or three people seem to think that Proccy isn't good enough yet Keith Alexander, Alan Knill, the Hill fella at Rochdale (cant think of his 1st name!) are three managers who would have loved to have signed him in the last couple of seasons. He regularly wins praise from the opposition fans (Crewe described him as lower league Gerrard-esque) and managers, has won player of the month twice last year, and is seen fit by non other than Coleman to be captain. I think that qualifies him as good enough.

Perhaps his problem is that he does more than his required shift and gets stuck in absolutely everywhere which makes him look bad (as a striker for example) when he cant make the most of the positions that he finds himself in.

Turner and Grant running the wings and stretching the opposition, Ryan and Proccy pinging the ball around with Joyce sitting behind mopping up. Five man midfield for me. That leaves Symes and Kee up front and a three man defence of Flynn, Lees and Winnard (for tomorrow only - give Sunbed and General Compo a night off).

Oops nearly forgot goalkeeper, sorry Bavs although you've not done a lot wrong the defence hasn't looked anywhere near solid for the half a dozen games that we have won only one of so Boozer returns.

Count how many passes he completes tonight, and count how many of his passes go astray, then I think you will agree that Jimmy Ryan cannot pass a ball. When he does pass the ball he then stands still, instead of pass and move.

The name you are looking for is Keith :D
 
Am I own my own thinking Jimmy Ryan is without doubt 1 of our best players????

Probably not
 
Agree with Smudgie, altho Ryan hasn't been as good as last season he is still a vital player in the midfield. Got to remember this season majority of players have played well so he won't stand out as much as last season.

For me, If we were sticking with 4-4-2 then Joyce is the player to drop = TURNER PROCCY RYAN GRANT, joyce is a good player and rarely gives the ball away but ryan is more attacking and a goal threat (yeh his 3 in 38 doesnt reflect this, for you stattos).

JIMMY IS ACE!
 
I will say it again. Watch his passing tonight and see how many passes are completed. Watch Jimmy after he has passed the ball, he will stand still. I will now leave it unti tomorrow.
 
Sorry jeff I 100% dont agree on this issue.

Just look at some of the goals he has scored for us.

Morecambe at home this season being a prime example.

I agree Joyce is a good player, but is totally different to Ryan.

I respect your opinion but I too have my opinion. All I ask is that you watch Jimmy tonight and see how many times he stands still and see how many of his passes go astray. I am not saying Jimmy is a bad player. No doubt if he could pass a ball he wouldn't be playing for Stanley, he would be playing at a higher level.
