Yes you are utter clueless as your posts show. Yes we have played 433 before, and the formation changes during games as you would understand if you knew anything about football

In which game precisely this season under Mowbray has this occurred?

The style of play is implemented from top to bottom at all levels so when the players come through they are familiar with it the players are signed to fit into the system.

If you watched the games and listened to TM he has said the formation changes a lot during games depending on certain in game situations, he has said many times the formation is flexible

We shouldn't adapt our way of playing and change it completely. There's teams in that league we'd compete with playing like we do.. You'd adapt against the obvious teams, the top teams of the league

I see adapting and changing as two different things. Perhaps I didn’t articulate it well in the past, but going from a 4231 with Pritchard in the hole to a 433 with say Michut, Neil and Ekwah central isn’t a massive change and what id call adapting - small change that won’t fundamentally change things but will make us a bit more solid and less vulnerable to the better teams in the PL.

I see that as different to changing the way we play fundamentally, which I’m not advocating, but we do need to be more conservative in the PL, or we will get absolutely mullered. I’m not talking about 10 men behind the ball all of the time, but likewise we can’t play this open either

What football managers say and do are two different things. Everything is a mind game and they never speak the honest truth for obvious reasons. That’s just another party line he’s trotting to not give anything away - and he’s entirely correct to do so.

We don’t change formation much during games - anyone who watches games can see this. But it’s impossible to debate with you when you don’t actually read my posts so another for ignore. Tarra

I think he knows how to be more conservative, as we were when we drew with Burnley away

If you don't see the formation changes he makes during a game then you don't understand football very well. Bye

I think Tony might also be up to speed with this as well.

We played games earlier this season that started with michut/ba/Neil in a three. Then changed in game to push back forward

Seems to announcing that he himself is putting people on ignore. Soon enough he'll be on these boards with no one to spout his shite. :lol:

Do you or do you not think Tony Mowbray has done a fantastic job with a young side ravaged with injuries in key positions. Out of 10 how highly would you rate his performance?

How highly do you now rate Anthony Patterson after you used to slate him week in, week out?

Unsurprisingly avoided :lol:
