I would like to see more goals from midfield , possibly a left sided player for dead ball situations as an alternative to Cotts .
Quote from: silent majority on May 01, 2013, 08:01:02 pmI know everyone complains that Lg1 has been poor this season, but seriously who's seen many Championship games? I think that's been poor this season too, look at Leicester, Derby and others, and don't forget how we beat Hull. It may not be such a big step for this team.Is that some SOD style expectation management? If we stick with Flynn I can easily see the 3/4 quality additions being Furman, Lundtsrum on loan and Hume on loan and everyone gnashing their teeth.

We need someone like Billy Sharp... so how about Billy Sharp?
we do need to re-focus the team to be quicker in all departments especially in midfield to create space and to use the ball more effectively but also we need the full backs to overlap more at paceandwe need to consider a change of formation from 4-4-2 to 4-3-3 a la swansea i think that this team needs to evolve

I think we ought to reward Brian Flynn with a contract for manager but I do have concerns about him. His reliance on the 4-4-2 being one of them.
This set of players have to be given the chance at championship level. They've earned that right. Football is no different from any managerial role. It's about dealing with people. Clough took a nucleus of hard working players at Derby and Forest and gradually supplemented them with individuals that complemented what he already had. Flynn needs to do the same. <snip>
You don't build success on sentiment.

Take the side of 2010/2011 that JUST avoided relegation from the Championship with 1 game to go. Compare that team with our current team. Which do you think would win? I for one think the current side is much better in most departments. 5 decent players on top of the current crop and we'll stay up next season. Keep the faith!

Sulli now?Joc Vs Quinn. DebatableMills and Hird Vs McCombe and Jones. Mills made Hird look respectable. Jones leads the defence, but overall, Mills made us solid and any partner with him that season would be better than Jones and McCombe.G. Roberts Vs. Spurr. Roberts got forward better, Spurr a little more solid.Stock and Wellens Vs. Any of this season's pairings, there is no contest here as im sure we'l all agree. Lundstram will be better than Stock in a few years but no contest between Stock when we we up.Copps was better a few years ago, naturally.Cotterill better than whoever we played wide left. Lewis Guy.....(Who else did we play there?)Hayter and Heffernan Vs. Paynter/Brown/Hume. Arguably the former, although I think, with a midfield like we had 4 years ago, the current strikers would be as good or better than Heffernan and Hayter.

Especially on those comparisons because Roberts, Mills and Wellens who you've brought up didn't even play for us in 2010/2011Come to think of it I don't think Paul Heffernan did either.Sorry

Mills was the man wearing his tee shirt back to front when we won the play off final Vs Leeds. And of course Stock was here.
