[Alty Bri]

It's fairly obvious that we need another striker on loan for Reeves looks horribly isolated whatever the formation.

[robininstockport]

He  was surrounded by players on Saturday for 70 mins. Unfortunately that was when he was sat  on bench.

I suspect it will be the same on Saturday

[distancetraveller]

A game we definitely need something from.

I believe Miller has the ability to be a very good winger and he can score goals,  I thought him and McWilliams worked well together last Sat v Salford
I would give the young lad Kane a run out on the other wing and go 442.

Don't make it too complicated Mr Harvey or I fear the players will be like rabbits in the headlights (again)

It would be good to see another Striker at the club. (with a bit of height).

The way the team is setup,  we wont see the best of Reeves, its no fkn good banging high balls up front all the time but that is what happens, mainly because those at the back sh*t themselves when they get the ball and just want to get rid.

[Mrs Warbouys]

As discussed with a few others the other night, we are constantly getting over run in midfield. That in turn leads to problems at both ends. Got to get some steel in the middle, hence I've picked the three I've gone for. We've used about 40 players and are still no nearer a settled preferred X1. We need to either play a 4-4-2 and just go toe to toe with sides but we don't have the pace for me at present. Or dominate games by taking control of the middle of the park.

I'd play a very similar starting 11 to Dickfingers but I'd swap Patterson and Obeng. I reckon Obeng would make a decent right winger.

I don't recall Lenighan exhibiting much steel in midfield during the 34 minutes before he was unceremoniously hauled off against Salford last Saturday.

Obeng Morrison Hannigan McWilliams
    
     Richman Thomas Lenighan

   Lawrie       Reeves      Wilkinson

Just get stuck in to them and make your passes count. Come on Alty!

2-1 win, the start of the turnaround and something clicks.

Thomas in midfield? Well, why not? Not a bad call, might as well try something different. Still nothing up front though. No Miller? He's our only forward player who looks even remotely dangerous or indeed arsed at the moment.

Thomas keeping the centre backs calm and collecting the ball off them (if they ever get hold of it).

Im thinking more about getting them to keep the ball and feed Reeves on the move and between the defenders. Maybe Miller for Wilkinson, but can he pick a pass?

[Jezza]

Interesting that noone so far has named cyrus in the squad let alone captain....also noone has reeves on the bench.
Jim take note.....

[ManagementGuru]

My two penneth - repeats many of the themes we have seen above.  Strengthen the defensive midfield and therefore the defence.  Assumes Hannigan injured still

Dawber

Obeng Thomas Morrison McWilliam

Patterson Moult Richman

Wilkinson Miller

Reeves

We are getting over run because Miller, Wilkinson, Lawrie cannot all play together; but I think we could perm 2 from 3; with the 3rd as an impact sub.  Alternative to this would be a 4-4-1-1 with Patterson  and Obeng covering for each other / getting forward with Miller and McWIlliam doing the same on the other side.  Wilko behind Reeves.

lol bravo

[York Alty is back]

I'm going and bringing two mates. The last time one of them saw Alty was the Kettering semi final play off so a long long time.


I think they're coming out of morbid curiosity.
