Good point squad is littered with wide players but we don't seem to want to play a system that utilises width and wingers so begs the question why bring them in
Holloway said he didn't think we had any wingers other than Shodipo and that we had loads of No 10's. Guess he doesn't feel that Wsolek, Yeni, El Kayati, Gladwin are wingers. He prefers to push Chery and Luongo out wide. Hasn't worked so far.
I have to say I'm a fan of real wingers, Lee Cool, Matty Phillips style wingers
Under Les Ferdinand:
Luke Freeman, top assists in the league: 4million
Alex Smithies, great goalie for this club: 3,5million
Charlie Austin, 19 Premier League goals: 4million
Jack Robinson: Contract ran out, left for free
And many more mistakes
We have 2 absolutely huge strikers who need service from out wide, yet we persist with no wingers and playing into feet. Honestly pretty worried about the state of the club at the moment, and I wouldn't put it past us to bin Ollie off before it's too late.
Maybe I'm being melodramatic, but 3 league defeats against arguably 3 of the worst sides in the league is soul destroying!
It is indeed and we should look at where we are likely to create a chance for the strikers. Out wide or from midfield? Easy one get 2 wingers on every game
^^Having followed this club since 1977, I have noticed that playing with widemen is actually a huge part of our identity, or soul, as Kenthoop mentioned.

Everything JFH was accused of, except worse. Didn't Holloway say something about playing players in their proper positions?

Considering our next 3 games i don't think its melodramatic at all. In form Derby, a rejuvenated Villa under Bruce and Brighton who will probably finish top 2.
