Looks like we're going to play more like Mick McWarnock ball to survive, oooorah I say, as its probably the only way we may stay up by being direct and nasty .
This passing for passing sake is for better teams / players, we only lose the bloody thing, due to the lack of player's ball retention distribution , visionary skills..
The forward line with Wickham , new lad looks a tougher and has a bigger physical look about it ..
No prisoners footy we want , where is Pato the legend when we need him most ...

yipee
Same comments on the other site, yes it looks like a clear more direct style of play with pace and power, so that's why I think he will start with Etete and Kaba, although maybe he will try Robinson with him first.Originally Posted by life on mars
We will have a clearer view over the next three games or so, personally, I think it's the only way, and I think (and hope) it will work.
Who will be the long throw specialist?
Probably just as much chance of retaining possession as we do when we throw five yards.
Id be stunned if he picked a front 2 of Etete and Kaba.
I think theres more chance of neither starting.
Time will tell, interesting to see what he does.
Kaba and Davies is my preferred starters
Hoof it and hope - it’s in the DNA of this club.
It's clear that passing in pretty triangles hasn't helped so route one it is
I think a front two of Wickham and Robinson is far more likely, provided the former stays fit of course.
Both have an eye for goal and movement, it should, in theory at least, give us a better chance of goals.
The worry is who passes or creates opportunities for them?
Outside of O'Dowda, there's very little creativity in this squad.
I was doing a bit of fishing there, but if anyone thinks the reason why we’re where we are is because this group of players have not been playing route one, then they’re sadly mistaken. Thirty games in, I think we can say that the squad, minus Kaba, would have the same sort of miserable goals return no matter how we played. We’re better equipped to play it lomg and rely on set pieces now, but the delivery from corners and free kicks has to be far, far better than it was at Hull.
If we sign Wickham and he could become seventy per cent of the player he once was, we’d have a complete centre forward, not just someone you whack it long on to his head, but I think the chances of that happening aren’t great.
Signing him, or getting 70%+ out of him?
I suspect you mean the latter, which is my concern really.
However, if he can stay fit and produce that, then he and Robinson could get goals.
Well it’s both really because I don’t think he’s signed yet has he? You’d have thought he would have by now.
I think we'll go out of our way to sign him, options are thin on the ground, time is running out, and it's the one position we have no decent players to fill other than Robinson.
Kaba's clearly not the gaffer's signing, yet he clearly knows a bit about Wickham and what he could one do in his pomp.
FYP
Moore is a far better player than the other 3 and shouldn't be lumped in with them
Those sort of players saw us fighting relegation last season as well and it took the arrival of actual footballers in Doyle & Drameh to get us out, as you've been told many, many times before
Creativity was non existent so best to just get it in the box. Messing about taking minutes to build a non productive attack was futile.
Amen to that , throw in Pack for all his faults at least he gave 100%.
Feckless lot
Route One. Go Long.
That's working out fckin shit atm isn't it.
I said he may go Robinson which he did, only took one more game to try it, I thought he would, lets see how it works?
Worked well with power and pace, and with Robinson and Wickham who both also looked good at last we have two alternative front lines capable of scoring and causing fear in the opposition back line!
that entertainment ! hoof them outta the park
Also a positive no Ojo
