The proof MW is now willing to be "more direct" will be provided in the next few games. Zero goals scored in three games is not due to bad fortune but tactical tepidness.
It's not unfair to ask why we continually move from goalie to LB to CB back to LB to goalie to RB, etc, when the other defense just sits back, packs in, and waits.
Yesterday was raining much of the game, meaning ANY balls could have proven dangerous but ONLY if bouncing in the other team's zone. Think it's safe to say that scoring goals from your own zone is a 1-in-a-1000 proposition.
Move forward, move faster, push harder.

Deep down perhaps MW wants to nurse the team through games due to the schedule. But surely you have to take risks at home and tighten up in aways games to avoid team injuries.

Originally posted by Qprtanpa1 View PostThanks all for the sprightly conversation. Not sure where anyone got the idea MW should be sacked. My opener in this loop suggested we had to do less messing around back and forth on the back line when we may just have some real firepower up front. Get the ball to them. Any way you can. Given our midfield has not been that linkup, would like to see more balls from Seny kicked up to the front line, and when they have the ball, more pace and more going forward from our back line.
As it is, we have somewhat steadied the defense while forfeiting much thirst (short of bursts from BOS and occasionally others) for the other goal.
This is all about assessing, reassessing, trying and/or discarding tactical schemes that fit this club and their personnel.
MW has a lot of admirable qualities -- steady, articulate, decent, experienced -- now let's see if he can add another to that pile: game day tactician.
Best all.
If he is going to select a 442 with two wingers and centre forwards then surely the ball needs to get forward much quicker.

Agree,
Huge void caused by Eze departure, Good money though.
Unfamiliar players both to us and each other brought in. They need to "gel". Pattern of play needs to develop depending on how brought in players and those remaining from last season plus those youngster coming through the ranks come together.
As they say in cooking, they need to get to know one another before the full chemistry is there.
Different combinations need to be tested, refined and developed. Not all experiments work. But there is a need to get that stability sooner rather than later, and try different things earlier in games when thing look like turning sour.
No fans, no atmosphere, no 12th man (fans).
Let's just give them a chance to sort things out before we make any rash judgements.
If we don't have another Eze, then don't play the same tactics.

Far to early to be talking about changing managers, we have 2 new fullbacks in their first full seasons , a new centre back that has just stepped up from league 1 and is doing well . 2 new strikers plus Willock and Adomah . We haven’t clicked yet but it’s not as if we are getting tonked every week . I would access in January myself .

Originally posted by gator View PostAs frustrating as it has been so far this season I think it's madness to consider a change of managers so soon, this squad has been over hauled to most people's approval, it hasn't looked very good so far but there are many factors contributing to this, familiarity with each other, players under performing and injuries! Maybe we have over rated some of the new arrivals, way too early to tell, MW played the 2 strikers many were calling for today, it didn't really work out on this occasion, I think partly due to Dykes being knackered!
