...well I wouldn't play Becchio in centre midfield... someone put some stats up in 2015 about the points the team accumulated with Bellusci in the team and without him (we were measurably better with him)
I do think that Coyle/Berardi at RBack will go a long way to giving balance and restoring some confidence. As mentioned before some of the things Wootton was getting wrong were not a results of being out of position (if we accept that he is a CHalf)...he was doing stuff in the position normally occupied by CHalfs and getting them wrong. I'm not advocating a witch hunt, that's not the point, the point is that we can see a weak link and there are apparently obvious solutions...all we're saying I think is, this is not working, there is an option, let's at least give it a go.

We had a wobbly 15 mins v B/ton, but prior to that we had conceded 10 goals in the preceding 11 games (not sure when Rosler was sacked, but if you cf the 11 games in Sep & Oct we let in 16.) Maybe the big problem was the absence of the much-maligned Bellusci (who Evans has reinstated)? And I don't pay any attention to this classic internet-age gripe about "playing people out of position"..............if you're any good at football, you can play anywhere on the pitch.

There are some very basic defensive issues not being addressed, and I don't know if it's because the defenders we've got are shit/stupid/lazy/uncommitted, or if the manager simply cannot motivate them/organise them, or is it elements of all the above? And what is the obsession with playing players out of position - Cook, Byron, Coyle, Wootton, Mowatt? It's all a massive f*ck-up that's for sure! _______________________________________________ Leedslist mailing list Info and options: http://mailman.greennet.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/leedslist To unsubscribe, email leedslist-unsubscr...@gn.apc.org MARCHING ON TOGETHER
