One up top don't suit us

[MattyRangers]

Always said it, stick to 442. Hate the way every club seems to have jumped on the European club bandwagon of going 4231. As Mike basset would say, 44 farking 2!

Am adamant the next PL to play 442 week in week out will succeed and be branded a genius for doing so.

I think 1 up top would work if we had some drive from midfield because we do have 2 good wingers in my view despite what some might say. If we will persist with central mids who will not drive forward with or without ball then you need to play 442 in my view

Maids we have tried it and it's been a total disaster like banging head Against a brick wall but we go out game after game thinking it's going to get better

Its boring now mate, especially as we just dont seem to have the players suited to the style of play needed to play that formation.

Maybe if we land this lad Washington we might see him up top with someone like Polter, Heard this washington is a little terrier and just doesnt stop running.

new rb ned hall robinson (when fit)

new rw faurlin lansbury new lw

Polter(if Austin is sold) Washington

Such common sense, West. The fact that Jimmy the Genius brought on a left back as his third sub (a freaking left back!!!!!) rather than going two up makes me think he hasn't a f acking clue.

Scary but true. I'd dearly love to be convinced otherwise though.

It´s a pity that our wingers tend to cut inside too early instead of going to the byline and cross it. I think Polter mentioned this as the way he wanted it. I reckon most "in and out" strikers will ecco his sentiments.

It ain't worked for us, so we must change, its so obvious even a 5 year old would say so

[QPR Richard]

This 4-2-3-1 lark is designed to accommodate these show ponies called "number ten roles". It's certainly not working for us and we should revert to 4-4-2. I'd much rather have two forwards getting in the faces of opposing centre backs than a lone striker and a trickster who just drifts in and out of games.

Just goes to show how poor our managers really are if they can't see it doesn't work. Today would of been a good time to try out different formation but as hassleplank ain't got a scooby what he us doing,just carries on with same old shoite!! Dread to think what dross he will bring into the club.

442, please JFK

[Alanwycombe]

Today we saw some of the players people have been calling for against a poor Forest side and it wasn't impressive. Whoever plays we lack pace, mobility and create sod all.

Leicester & Watford both play it.

Oh do they. And look how they're both performing . Says it all IMO.

Leicester and Watford well may indeed play one man up front, Palace too. What they've got that we don't, is pace in the midfield to support the lone striker. I think Manure fans are complaining with their one man up front, as they're boring as #### too

Ighalo & Deeny. Vardy & Mahrez

Jimmy's point was that they play two up front, Lymes.
