What would you do if you were the manager?

Recommended Posts

Continue playing hoofball but play 5 up front instead of 5 on defense. This would give us an albeit slim (because we are Leicester) but slightly better chance of winning the ball going forward.

 

I'd also request the owners to put our pitch on a graded swivel with the opposing end being downhill and having a wider goal to shoot at. What could possibly go wrong?

Also sanction 'Multi Ball' when the opposition are in possession.

id ask myself why at the start of one of our biggest seasons for years did i sign a bunch of freebies who were championship level and old warhorses who were past it and then blow 8 million on a quality player but buy nobody good enough to give him the service on a regular basis . 

 

then i would ask myself why did i buy a 42 year old keeper and throw him straight into the team where he has made errors galore and we have not picked up any points and keep the keeper i had in goal who was excellent and we had one of our best runs of the seasons sitting on the bench now depressed and not knowing what he has done wrong . 

 

now i ask myself with 13 games to go shall i play a totally defensive formation every game which gives us very little shooting chances and a defence that makes errors week in week out and also leave one of the best crossers of the ball on the bench and out the team .

I'd play a winger who can cross, and I'd play another man with Kramaric, because it's evident he can't play as a lone striker....so ****ing evident in fact.

You mean like Arsenal away when he played very very well and proved he can play up top on his own

If I were the manager I literally wouldn't know what to do anymore. We have tried about 5 different formations and have tried pretty much every style of play to get consistent results and it's just not working. There are question marks over every single position at the minute so no matter who he picks some on here will be saying he has picked the wronged team. Kramaric, Mahrez and James and Huth are probably the only names that would be in all of our starting 11's.

That is pretty spot on, sadly. There are very few players all fans would pick in their lineup... and there's almost certainly very few agreeing on formations & tactics too... just shows you

 

Bringing players from the outside who not only want 1st team action but also have a point to prove, Albrighton, Lawrence etc changing earlier in games when it's clear it's not working, and then as a one off reference to Sunday actually using substitutions

..The Nuge up front?

Play 3-5-2

Hamer

Was. Huth. Upson

De Laet. Schlupp

Cambiasso© James

Mahrez

Ulloa. Kramaric

This. And if we're behind with 15 to go, bring on a quick lad for Cambiasso.

I'd recognise that my job was on the line and that I need to prove that the decisions I'd made were correct. So I'd be sticking to the formation that had some success against Arsenal and for a while against Villa even though individual performances contributed to the defeat. I'd start Kram in as many matches as possible to justify bringing him in, similarly Huth.

This may not work but if it did then NP would emerge with some positives this season. Right or wrong, he appears to have a lot of self-belief (which you need as a manager) and will probably stick to his guns.

I'd rest Morgan, put Hamer back in goals, start playing Albrighton and Lawrence (great believer in youth). Also like to see more of Moore.

Lawrence?

He's been nothing short of diabolical every time he's made an appearance.

But then why change from what Pearson did, it's worked out pretty well.
