My Danish club has parted ways with Uwe Rösler so I’ve just sat through 3 years of wingbacks and it’s doing my head in. Hopefully it’s not introduced at boro and the new manager at AGF puts it in the bin too. I think Giles doing bad this year and selling jones means we don’t want to go back to wingbacks 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being objective, this isn't a squad you'd be shocked to see finish 10th again (as it stands). Quality players have been sold and not replaced, and it's caught up with us. We're lacking in winning experience and mental strength, and we pick up constant injuries. The manager is important but we've somehow ended up needing an even bigger 'rebuild' than the last two summers. Well done Mr Scott 👏 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I appreciate we don't currently have the players to make the system work, but it gives you three at the back, width with pace down the flanks if you choose the right WBs, lets you play two up front (I am so unspeakably sick of watching Boro toil away with one lone striker against a back four) and still put three men into midfield. My personal formation of choice would be 4132, but I don't get the hate for wingbacks. What was Rösler doing that was so unenjoyable to watch? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was fan of wing backs till the last few months of wilder which were horrible to watch. Put it off me for life as irrational as that is. 433 for me, there's a reason all the top sides in world football use it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we could somehow get him to stay and get a centre midfielder who can score goals as the second 8 with Morris anchoring and recycling, my God. As great as hackney has been for us I think we've wasted his talents a little by playing him in a 2. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
