ferguson is piss poor tactically.

in getting the best out of young players, hes one of the best in the world..but tactically, he's terrible. take this season for example.

at home to the mighty crawley fc. we decide to line up 433.

then, away at stamford bridge, we line up 442.

then, again, away at liverpool with a decimated defence, chooses to play 442. surely a bit of protection to the defence isn't einstein?

doesn't seem right to me.

 

I dont know where to start with how stupid this thread is... I Guess ill start with what the hell makes you think you know more than a man who has won countless personal awards and has led us to so many titles

 

so you honestly think it's a good idea to play an open 442 game with 2 slow, immobile central midfielders in front of a back 4 of rafael-brown-smalling-evra?

 

Honestly as soon as you criticise fergie you lose all credibility. there are many examples of how brilliant he is.

 

answer my question. do you think he got the tactics right today?

 

Answer mine. What makes you think you know better?

 

i might not have all the trophy's he's got, not yet any way...but surely adding a little bit of protection to a decimated back 4 is hardly asking too much? after all, he's decided it was the formation of choice against the mighty crawley fc.

 

Anyone who can get away with fielding 12 players deserves respect IMO.

 

well spotted

 

Im gonna finish getting drunk.Nail the catflap up to save the poor thing and then Im off to bed.Shocking!

 

Ferguson is a great tactician, but sometimes lets his attacking instincts get the better of him. He was clearly going for the win today and at SB, when we should probably have been aiming for draws. He's made that mistake before, but most often in European games. When he wants to attack the opposition and go for the win, he doesn't seem to consider the need to counter their formation / players.

And to be fair none of the goals we conceded have been due to tactics, they've all been due to errors. VDS for the third, Nani for the second and Brown and Carrick for failing to make straightforward challenges for the third.

 

Only woke up after night shift. Bugger!!

 

Lol, hope you were having good dreams, cos you just woke up to a nightmare!

 

He still makes mistakes ffs......

 

jordan

 

when did you get that sig?

 

Yes but Jordon was saying he is bad tactically overall . Mistakes were made today. the scoreline tells you that much.

 

Just got back from hol, am devastated....

 

where'd you go?
