bring on the Wall where do we go from here? Is it down to the…. whole new game plan or we still shuffling the deck chairs??? the whole team now look dodgy don’t they??!! Will theee at the back and wing backs be given a go? Could be a goer city win 2-1
I can't see anything else but another away bumming. Could get messy. Wake up and smell the coffee Chazz old chap.
I wondered whether three at the back might be a logical change, but we still haven't seen a back 3 since Swansea when Shota suddenly abandoned it against his previous principles and then found that he and Acun were no longer aligned in their thinking. I'm not convinced we're going to see it again any time soon.
Think there’s more chance it would work if we were to try it now. Christie and Fleming are perfect for that and in theory would give us some dynamism and attacking threat as opposed to Coyle and Elder. Probably covers Greaves and Jones weaknesses more as well. Still leaves that glaring issue in the middle in that we have no one that can win the ball and that won’t disappear until we sign a proper defensive midfielder, no matter what systems or formations are used.
My usual city win but with a little less confidence then of late…..**** me id take a point right this second…..
3-4-1-2 is growing in popularity and now that Fleming is fit again could provide some better defensive cover. You could swap out the AM for a DM for extra protection, but then I’d worry about linking the strikers and the defenders. I think Oscar will do a lot better with somebody playing off him. At the minute he’s having to pick the ball up on the halfway line. When we had Hernandez, he relied on Mo Diame or Akpom playing off him. He didn’t just go it alone up front and wait for endless crosses, there was always somebody with him.
This will be an interesting one with LR in the hot seat for there first time, we seem to play better away generally, but we just need to be solid and make ourselves hard to beat. I think I would try again Jones as a defensive midfielder, he has done okay most times when moved into that position. Maybe something like 442, 2 banks of 4 defensively Ingram Coyle McLoughlin Greaves Fleming/Elder Christie, Jones Seri Docherty Oscar/Longman Pelkas.
This was a struggle. They haven't played in Millwall since 1910. Millwall was named after some windmills on a 'wall' which was a mud embankment to keep the river off the swamp. The other notable landmark seems to be a Black wall. It's now yuppieville. Formed by tinsmiths at J.T. Morton’s Canning and Preserve Factory and prophetically called Millwall Rovers, with a HQ in The Islander pub. They then became Millwall Athletic, but dropped the suffix, presumably for trade description reasons. The blue and white kit and Lion motif is a nod the the jockanese roots of Mr Morton. Erm..the SS Great Britain was built and launched there. I guess that's why the emigrated to Bermondsey, whose name means "dry bit in a swamp" and is the setting for ***in and Bill Sykes in Oliver Twist. They have more swamp beds than all of the hotels in Portugal. Wee Willie Harris, known as "Britain's wild man of rock 'n' roll", came from Bermondsey and had worked as a pudding mixer at Peek Freans. He is usually credited as the first British rock and roll player. The schoolkids in Pink Floyd's 'Another Brick in the Wall' are from a Bermondsey School. 82% of the residents live in flats or maisonettes and over 30% of the kids are obese. Given this, it's no surprise to read The Sunday Times named Bermondsey 'the best place to live in London in 2018'.
82% of the residents live in flats or maisonettesand over 30% of the kids are obese. Similar to Orchard Park and Bransholme then
I did a photo shoot at The Den once, on the way there we stopped in a really rough greasy spoon for some breakfast and a really camp bloke from my PR company announced that he'd like a pain au chocolate with a skinny latte. The owner, who was merrily dropping his cig ash into the eggs he was frying at the time, thought he was taking the piss and told him to get the **** out.
