Who are the 3 up front?

I mean it's pretty obvious.

Shipley and Westbrooke are playing very far forward and when we have the ball they are forming a 3 with Godden.

[cc84cov]

We have one in the box, they have five defenders

Now there’s a shock

 

[jordan210]

Clive likes Kellys cheeky little lob.

 

[Johhny Blue]

That was pretty comical his flag was all over the place

Its called semi semaphore

 

[PVA]

3 upfront? We have 1 striker on the pitch

And?

Shipley and Westbrooke are playing very far forwards. Are you even watching the game?

 

[jordan210]

Just then Lincoln has 7 men in and around the box we had 2

 

[Great_Expectations]

Remember when everyone was going mental that the mighty Lincoln had beaten us to the signature of Tyler Walker?

I don’t want to curse it, but he’s looked poor so far.

Shipley and Westbrooke are playing very far forward and when we have the ball they are forming a 3 with Godden.

They are miles from him most of the time, shipley is closer but it's not 3 up front

How many are we getting in the box?

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

All over them but not looking like creating or scoring

 

[Great_Expectations]

And?

Shipley and Westbrooke are playing very far forwards. Are you even watching the game?

I agree and I’ve made the same point, but it definitely isn’t 3 up front, it’s Godden with Shipley and Westbrooke playing as 10’s.

Yeah I am watching the game what are you talking about? We have one striker upfront they are both playing In midfield

 

[PVA]

They are miles from him most of the time, shipley is closer but it's not 3 up front

It's as good as 3-4-3 for me.

Man City only ever play one out and out striker, but they're not actually only playing one up front.

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

We're basically playing 3-4-3, I'm not sure how much more attacking people want us to line up.

OnLy OnE uP fRoNt!!1!

3-4-2-1

 

[cc84cov]

Why can’t we just play Biamou & Godden were at bloody home

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

It's as good as 3-4-3 for me.

Man City only ever play one out and out striker, but they're not actually only playing one up front.

Yeah we're not them buddy

 

[jordan210]

We are awful at corners. Why every week do we float them in

 

[Johhny Blue]

Why can’t we just play Biamou & Godden were at bloody home

We are allowed 11

 

[PVA]

3-4-2-1

Yes it's either this or 3-4-3, but ZW and JS are playing very advanced roles.

As I say, Man City play one striker but are never accused of 'only playing one up front'.

None of them are near him, their defenders are double marking him but we aren't getting in the space

 

[jordan210]

Why don't we use Mccallum's long throw ?

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

McCallum looks a million dollars going forward and on the ball

 

[Great_Expectations]

Not sure Godden has touched the ball.

He isn’t suited to playing on his own, even with two advanced midfielders behind him.

Not a Godden hater, but he needs two up front or we need more natural 10’s behind him.

 

[cc84cov]

Welcome back Westbrooke 1-0

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Great strike from westbrooke

 

[Nick]

Great goal from Westbrooke, volley on his left foot

Keeper should have saved it really

 

[PVA]

None of them are near him, their defenders are double marking him but we aren't getting in the space

We must be watching a different game.

When we have the ball one of them is always up alongside/near Godden.

As I type that, Godden comes short and Shipley and Westbrooke both go up front.

And then Westbrooke scores.

 

[clint van damme]

We're basically playing 3-4-3, I'm not sure how much more attacking people want us to line up.

OnLy OnE uP fRoNt!!1!

If you think Shipley or Walsh occasionally drifting in behind Godden constitutes more than 1 up front then I think you've overdone the Chtitmas sherry.
That last cross we put in to the box Godden was up against 3, Shipley was outside the 18 yard box being marked

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Hope we keep playing now push on

 

[Johnnythespider]

Well taken goal

 

[chiefdave]

That'll do. Their keeper should have had that covered.

Lets kick on now and kill the game off.

 

[PVA]

Would you look at that.

Godden, Westbrooke and Shipley all in the box.

I await your apologies

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

McCallum not that time!!!!

 

[Nick]

Westbrooke scored from outside the box, Kelly was more advanced.

It doesn't mean there's 3 up front

 

[skyblueinBaku]

WooooooHoooooo!

 

[Johhny Blue]

QUICK. EVERYBODY BACK IN THE BOX
