Shall we try attacking?

Post by Orientnil »

May I venture that we should be a little bolder?
How about...

Vigs
Thompson, Beckles, Ogie, Wood
Khan, Pratley, Coleman, Kiprianou
Smith, Archibald

Have to go on the offensive though I do struggle to think of an XI that looks strong and balanced. Here's trying...

GK - Vigoroux

LB - Wood
CB - Beckles
CB - Ray
RB - Thompson

Coleman (holding)
Pratley
Khan

Drinan
Smith
Archibald

Really struggling for a creative player in midfield so may as well give Khan a go and see what he can do. If not then Reilly?

Attacking is good, our defence is decent enough on paper.

I would go with:

Vigs
Wood Ogie Beckles Khan
Pratley Colman Reilly
Archi Drinan
Smith

433 only works with fit players.

I'm thinking 352.

Its so easy just play the players in their right positions, and have a shot at the three bits of wood at the end of the pitch, even if you miss have a shot !

Got to score goals - might be a key issue for winning matches.
