Scow Posted 14 September 2004 Posted 14 September 2004 Just been reading an article on Alan Wright, the Sheffield United left back, on his thoughts about tonight's game. I was just thinking how small he is (He's about 5ft 5') and how we can expose him tonight. By playing Scowcroft right wing against him, we could get quite a bit joy against him in the air. Harper is more than capable of playing left wing, although I would be reluctant to move him there because he impressed down the right side on Saturday. I know it's not the most popular way of playing football, but we do need to mix it up at times, and that could be a tactic which could prove alot more effective than usual.

I'd like to see the team mix it up a bit. Passing, and hoofing (When necessary). If its forever flying over Connolly's head, the hoof will be no good to us...get it to his feet and watch him go!
