pearcey_90 Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 Looks like a 4-4-2 with Sterling/Ox playing narrow further forward so expect full backs to be very attacking. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vegard_R Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 5-0 i reckon We're ****, but not that ****. We won't score though, as we just don't have strikers who score goals. Defensively we're quite decent Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anti Spiral Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 Former England winger Chris Waddle BBC Radio 5 live "England captain Wayne Rooney is not playing his normal game - he's trying to force things and it's not happened."

av3ry Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 We're making a really poor team look competent here. Organised in defence as I expected them to be, but, he havent exactly used any creativity except for one or two high through-balls that the strikers couldnt control.

H.O.V.I Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 This team would be far better dropping one of rooney or sturridge, playing another wide man and having sterling as a number 10 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeonflux Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 They are playing narrow and deep, and we are trying thread the eye of the needle. If we want to play through the middle we need to widen the pitch Completely agree with you there, only thing I can't understand is why we're not allowing them to have the middle in terms of when we're attacking and speed up the play when we get the ball wide and get the wider players crossing the ball into the middle instead of slowing down and as you say try to thread the ball through the eye of the needle Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeonflux Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 This team would be far better dropping one of rooney or sturridge, playing another wide man and having sterling as a number 10 Personally I'd drop Sturridge as he's far too concerned with the spectacular and is more interested in looking to shoot first and then spends ages allowing the defence to reorganise before he passes it. Plus he's basically unable to use his right foot Having said that IIRC didn't Rooney complain about not playing up front in Fergies last season, saying he was a ST not a AMC Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
