If he wants to play the overlapping centre half system then its imperative he gets one, otherwise it won't work. Also back up LWB, maybe even a starter if Bola can't get himself fit. I might be stupid but could somebody please explain to me what they mean by overlapping centre half? How does it work? How's it different to playing just 3 at the back?

The centerback literally overlaps the wingbacks in attack, which should give an advantage, as none of the opponents defenders have the overlapping cb as their man Link to post Share on other sites

There's reason to watch this and believe the man is open to working under the structure we want given that we have a bunch of things he wants out of a club already, i.e. a decent group of players and especially the quality of the facilities. Was also watching a Tifo vid about the Sheffield United approach during his time there, from the first season in the Prem. And basically, I hope he brings Alan Knill with him and that him taking up the role with Wales doesn't prevent him from coming in too. Or else we could end up with another Monk/Clotet situation. 47 minutes ago, liambell42 said: I might be stupid but could somebody please explain to me what they mean by overlapping centre half?

Have a watch of the Tifo vid above that Wilson posted it explains how the overlapping cb works Edited November 7, 2021 by ABH Link to post Share on other sites
StokesleyMFC 2 Posted November 7, 2021 Share Posted November 7, 2021 RWB on loan most probable; Luke Bolton Man City, Yan Valery Southampton, Hoever Wolves. LWB cover? Could recall Spence. Left footed centre half? Paul Dummett? Doubt Newcastle will want him now. Big man up top - Keenan Davis? Link to post Share on other sites

A high pressing tactic that also has its own risk. Enjoyable to watch. Link to post Share on other sites

wilsoncgp 9,280 Posted November 8, 2021 Share Posted November 8, 2021 Talk of Coulson and Spence has me wondering whether the other loanees could contribute for this manager. Wing and Akpom are out of the picture at the moment but are still our players come the end of the season. As well as the other young lads, there's Brynn, Hemming, Wood, Robinson, Hackney, Walker and Burrell all out on loan at the moment. Wood especially may have a real chance of making it under this manager. McNair, Fry and Wood as a back 3 may well work. Stoj is out in the cold too though with Lumley and Daniels around, him as well as the young keepers will have trouble getting their place in the team you'd imagine. Link to post Share on other sites
