Aphex_Boro 1,444 Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 Other than no Ledesma and Tomlin starting, I don't really see much wrong with it. Before anyone mentions it, you know I'm not a fan of Leadbitter so don't even bother. Ledesma has been poor recently so not disappointed to see him dropped. The team is fineish its the formation I'm not happy with. Why can't we just play 4-4-2? Link to post Share on other sites
Prowler 197 Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 I'd much rather we didn't play 4-4-2. It's archaic and we are trying to build a completely new philosophy here. You don't get that by chopping and changing a formation. Karanka is trying to find the players to fit the formation, you don't do it the other way round. Also, Ledesma was good when he came on against Leeds. Link to post Share on other sites
boroinferryhill 8 Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 Also i don't understand why we brought Luke Williams back he is not even on the bench the lad was doing well at Hartlepool Link to post Share on other sites

Yes find players to fit the formation, but he can't do that in March, what he can and should be doing is using formations that fit the players we have at the minute. In the summer most definitely sign players who will be effective at playing his game, but forcing players to play a system they clearly aren't comfortable with just isn't going to get us anywhere Link to post Share on other sites

"KM" 1,656 Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 Karanka had got it spot on defensively we just need to sort it out going forward and we could be a dark horse next season Link to post Share on other sites
Jamie-H 1,322 Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 I watched Leadbitter for the full 90 v Leeds besides 1 diagonal to Main every aspect of his play was poor. I dont doubt his commitment I doubt his quality and decision making, Im happy he's benched Im just a little disappointed Tomlins on the bench. Mejias was always going to start he's Karanka's guy, Steele wont get a sniff for the rest of this season if this guy lives up to what's expected of Real Madrid youth products. Im going with a 2 0 win with Admomah and Graham scoring, here's hoping. Link to post Share on other sites

"KM" 1,656 Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 Carayol must have done something VERY BAD for Karanka to leave him out in successive games after the form he was showing Link to post Share on other sites
