Match Day Thread Hull City v Middlesbrough

I think Smithlooks the best of our currently available options up front - he has pace and determination, both things we're a bit short of.

 

It's a Warnock team with big **** off centre-halves. The way we set up with our front three leaves the centre-forward way too isolated from the wide players. This isn't even a formation thing. Lots of teams play 4-3-3 and have the wide men tuck inside and support the centre-forward. We don't do that though. So whoever plays up front, whether it be Eaves or Tyler Smith, will get bullied today. Personally, I'd like to see us try 5-3-2/3-5-2 like this:

 

I'm sure Warnock will know our tactics will be 4 3 3, fanny about at the back, diagonal hoofball and overhit passes into the middle - McCann doesn't know any other way and if the players got their act together it's a system that will work

 

Is this your prediction? Or the confirmed line up?

 

I think more of a wishful thinking.

 

Same here.....but sadly the clown won't agree

 

No. 55 bus, might just make 2nd half.

 

Coventry beating Fulham 3-1 after going behind...

 

Eaves. And Smith.

 

Change in formation ?

 

I don't really think it's even a deliberate tactic. We just get it out wide, run out of space and ideas and often end up slinging a ball in out of desperation more than anything.

 

3-5-2 ?!

 

Elder not even in squad must be injured, not sure who is left back out of that tbh, and still not sure what formation that's gonna be .. although I'll hazard a guess at 4 3 3 !

 

Where the hell is Elder!!!... where the heck is Fleming...?

 

Doubht it, Smith will be right wing I bet, and someone out of position at full back

 

City take short goal kicks, pass around at the back, panic and pass back to Ingram who hoofs it upfield
