Formation tonight?

Recommended Posts

More of a 4-2-3-1? Nugent looked to be playing deeper than Wood/Kane. 

 

Started 4411 with Nuge playing deep and nullifying their ability to play long passes to pacey players... worked really well

 

Later on we changed to 4231, it all seemed very fluid to be honest.

 

Apart from Schlupp being caught twice & general nervousness around their obviously potential in our box we did it really well

 

Great stuff from NP

 

Although Wood's lack of mobility & inability to win a header almost ruined everything, when Kane was on & working the channels & drawing fouls we looked much better going forward

Exactly, thought we bossed the midfield, King and James were excellent, and Knocky and Dyer had a lot of freedom. The only shortcomings were Wood was ineffective and Schlupp was inept in defence, Konchesky in for the 2nd leg as Schlupp is a great attacking option to have on the bench.

 

GREAT RESULT

I agree. For a manager who is apparently so tactically inept he got it pretty spot on this evening.

 

This a miillion times. So perfect tonight. Didn't push up really high to leave ourselves exposed but as soon as the ball got to their midfielders, we were all over them. Nuge dropping off just closed it off a bit more and the way Kingy and James are playing together; it worked perfectly.
