O'Nein - Dobson - McGeough in Midfield

[WildinHetton]

OP tells the truth. As proved at Burnley it works.

 

[bigmarlon]

Tin hat firmly attached to me bonce like, but.... I reckon we let Jack Ross, the professional football manager with 30 years experience in the game, make the decisions when it comes to the starting 11 like.

HTJR

 

[Billy Batts]

Mcgeough, Power and Dobson for me. No Leadbitter ffs.

 

[theboybev]

Go back to when we beat Everton 3-0 to stay up under BSA....we were 4141 and looked solid....So should we give that a go....team that day was Yedlin, Kone, Kabul, PVA; Kirschoff; Borini, Catts, Mvilla, Khazri; JD........could it be McLaughlin, Oz, Willis, Hume; McGeoch; Maguire, O9, Dobson, McGeady; McNulty....

The expansive gulf in quality aside, none of those fit the Kirchoff role.

[ihateshearer]

With Maguire - Mcnulty - Mcgeady up top

Creativity and eagerness is the issue, so is this the answer ?

I only see Mcnulty with enough workrate to make it work. Might work, but not a formation i fancy duo to mcgeady and maguire to do alot of hardwork in that formation.

Jack ross clearly reads this message board and thought fuck that's a good idea will try that
Bar maguire

Leadbitter or Power then?...

 

[richest]

Rather power than mcgeoch. Then it would be the 3 most mobile midfielders

Mcgeoch not mentioned on commentary. As usual

Hes done ok imo

He’s been canny live like.

 

[nowtgoodeverhappens]

The reason I think this would be ideal is, McGeouch is very good at keeping the ball ticking over in midfield. Dobson and O’Nien can be more attack minded but also the more combative, mobile midfielders. O’Nien can also occupy a position on the right if needed, given his decent form down that side.

Con is that you have McLaughlin in at RB, which could be a weak link, but I’d risk it. We’ve already got a weak defence as it is.

Oof, not tonight mate

Players like him don't usually get mentioned much hes done ok

Bar maguire

That worked well then

 

[Captain Calamity]

So. Nearly my formation but not quite. If maguire has played we’d hve won. So a resounding tick for me based on nearly good but the manager didn’t pick my full team . Or sack the manager for trying to follow my suggestions ?

 

[chriswallace85]

Leadbitter or Power then?...

Both for me.

 

[DufraisFTM]

I genuinely don’t understand the clamour for O’Nien to play CM or a more advanced role. For me, he’s shown absolutely nothing in his SAFC career so far to suggest he can play there and tonight just confirmed it. He was like a little boy lost and offered nothing at all.

As soon as he was shifted to his now natural (in my opinion) position of right back we saw what he was all about. He needs as much of the pitch in front of him as possible to get the best out of him. He was involved in almost everything in the last 10-15 mins and should have won it.
