4-3-3 or 4-5-1

[Walshie is God]

This has been bugging me for a while now so time to get it off my chest!

I'm getting increasingly frustrated by the insistance both in the forums and on BBC RL that Leicester City play a 4-3-3 formation. It is quite obvious to me that its a 4-5-1, as Nugent has no support what so ever. Bristol City managed more support for their team (and that was pitiful) than we give to Nugent. The so called wide men dont tuck in when the ball is on the opposite side of the pitch, and everyone seems incredibly isolated. If we are to play a 4-3-3 then lets make sure it is a 4-3-3 where there isnt a defensive element to the wider men of the 3 front players.

Its time for a change of formation IMO, we are going nowhere with the current personnel playing the current system it just doesn't work I've seen more creativity in my 5 year olds drawing book. Lets switch to a 4-4-2 and give Nugent a little bit of help and maybe then, just maybe then he could be our 20+ goal scorer that we are crying out for. It doesn't matter if we have Nugent, Maynard, Yakubu, Keane, RSC or the man in the fvcking moon twinned with if we continue to isolate our lone front man and leave them feeding off scraps 10 goals is all we're gonna get!!

So instead on Nugent give the guy some support and lets spank the tree huggers at the weekend!!!

We don't have wide men capable of playing in either of those formations.

at home this shambles of a formation we are playing is pitiful, play like that away maybe but at home entertain us and attack the opposition, were utterly pathetic at the moment

We don't have wide men capable of playing in either of those formations.

Then this is where we need the investment instead of wasting another 5m+ on a forward that will see more life on the outer bleeding hebrides.

I've been wondering myself why it has been called a 4-3-3. Shows no resemblance of it all.

If we had proper wingers it'd be fine. Swansea last year, Nathan Dyer and Scott Sinclair on the wings. They didn't even have a decent striker but look where they ended up. A decent winger is just as big a priority as a striker I think, we don't seem to be creating anything worthwhile.

I think for Forest we should Team:

Schmeichel

Peltier Mills Bamba SL Konchesky

Fernandes King

Vassell Nugent Gallagher

And maybe we might keep a clean sheet!!

Our 4-3-3 formation always turns into a 4-5-1 that's why performances are so frustrating.

Should be an out to out 4-4-2, whether we play wingers or diamond formation.

[John Matrix]

4-4-2

the other 2 clearly aren't working

With 10 men?

With 10 men?

5 in defence in his team makes it 11

[Burmesefox]

I have been screaming for weeks and weeks that we do not play 4 3 3 it is clearly 4 5 1 with an overcrowded midfield hence passing sideways, confused midfielders, and zero penetration.

WE PLAY 4 ****ING 5 ****IN 1 - there, nuff said!

4-4-2 or GTFO

[Weller in Tights]

Totally agree with those calling for 4-4-2

Put Vassel up with Nugent (felt Nugent ran his socks off last night and did well considering the support he had), until we buy Nicky Maynard (Please can that be true, his movement was great last nght).

Felt Wellens was disapointing. So not sure about the midfiled.

Mills should not have been dropped, a player has one bad game, he then needs his confidence building.

[Kilworthfox]

They are pretty much the same formation
