Morning to all. Listened to Saturdays match on the net (being in Cairo and us out of the prem' no other way to follow a game) I could "hear" just how bad we were in the first 45. I admit to being a Worthy fan baring in mind what he has done for us overall. However, he does appear to make some "silly" mistakes from time to time, Saturdays mid-field Diamnond being a classic example. Better players than ours find the formation difficult to implement. (England for example) There's absolutley no doubt in my mind that 442 fits us better than any other formation, home or away. Hucks has only one position, wide left. We have a traditional CF in Deano, good hold up and (usually) lethal in the air when running on to a cross. To get to that situation you need wide players getting to the bye line. Hence 442.
I hope by now that Worthy has realised how simple it is really.
442, Hucks wide left, Deano hammering in the crosses or knocking it back for McVeigh.
