I'm guessing we'll try and find a way to minimise the long kicks

Krul has gone long a lot more often this season too and Pukki almost almost tries to anticipate the defender missing or passing it, which rarely works so I don't think it'll make a huge difference.

I thionk the biggest change with McG will be poorly directed or overhit short passes making it harder for the defenders to control and move it.
Lucky it's coventry tomorrow as they're unlikely to press very high, but a better team could really cause us problems like that

Team tomorrow then?... (NCFC) - loz, Nov 27, 14:29:37
- Yep with Placheta up front in the pukki role. (NCFC) - usacanary, Nov 27, 15:28:34
  - Emi as the striker against Luton unless Placheta has a blinder. (n/m) (NCFC) - usacanary, Nov 27, 15:35:19
    - Dunno if he's more dangerous (NCFC) - Cardiff Canary, Nov 27, 15:43:17
      - No he needs to be in the thick of it. Imagine the arm throwing from up front! (n/m) (NCFC) - trafford_canary, Nov 27, 16:01:25
        
        Crikey... (n/m) (NCFC) - Cardiff Canary, Nov 27, 17:12:57
- Looks good to me (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Nov 27, 15:09:16
  - Agree, that was where my mind was going as well (n/m) (NCFC) - Yellalee, Nov 27, 15:09:47
    - Although stiepi isn’t very good in the air is he? (n/m) (NCFC) - loz, Nov 27, 15:16:56
      - Other than sticking a centre back up there, he’s all we’ve got (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Nov 27, 15:21:55
      - Terrible in the air (n/m) (NCFC) - Dog, Nov 27, 15:21:47
        
        Pukki almost never wins a header. Surely everyone has noticed this? (n/m) (NCFC) - Worzel Scrimmage, Nov 27, 15:25:04
        
        We don’t pump it long to Pukki though as McGovern may do? (n/m) (NCFC) - loz, Nov 27, 15:31:19
        
        I'm guessing we'll try and find a way to minimise the long kicks (NCFC) - Worzel Scrimmage, Nov 27, 15:42:16
- I reckon... (NCFC) - trafford_canary, Nov 27, 14:44:54
  - I think it will be Steips and Mario feeding balls through for the pacey Pole. (n/m) (NCFC) - Pixelman, Nov 27, 14:51:11
    - Yep. I think this will be the way. (n/m) (NCFC) - usacanary, Nov 27, 15:42:14
    - How can I help? (n/m) (NCFC) - DrDublin, Nov 27, 15:12:59
  - I’m with Loz. Stiepy up front and Vrancic in his usual spot. (n/m) (NCFC) - Jim, Nov 27, 14:46:56
    - His usual spot is on the bench though... (NCFC) - trafford_canary, Nov 27, 14:49:21
      - Stiepermann's usual spot I mean! (n/m) (NCFC) - Jim, Nov 27, 15:05:59
        
        Ahhhh, yeah Mario at the 10. I just don't see Stiepi up top (NCFC) - trafford_canary, Nov 27, 15:09:47
        
        He can actually score goals though and hold the ball up. Placheta is mostly unable (NCFC) - Worzel Scrimmage, Nov 27, 15:24:19
  - And if it goes a bit tits up, Vranc in for McAlear with Placheta sliding left Stiepi top (n/m) (NCFC) - trafford_canary, Nov 27, 14:46:14
