Sack Hughes tonight - no sympathy from me

[QPRDave]

No one is saying he is as good as Bobby at holding it up. But for you to suggest he cant hold it up at all and bring others into play is ridiculous.

Who said we MUST have someone holding it up? If we have Tarbs playing further forward, Hoilett attacking on the right and midfielders making runs forward, we don't need someone to hold it up all the time, we can pass it around, we have the quality to.

Because if we don't have anyone to hold the ball up it will just come back time after time. Agree we can just have players breaking but as i say we'll then get accused of long ball and and posters will complain about that

It's not the result that bothers me - we were unlucky, with Traore's injury and the sending off. It is the constant cluelessness displayed by Hughes that should get him sacked.

We keep hearing that he has to play Park because of the Asian connection. Well, today was his chance to play the midfield most of us want

-----------Diakite----------
Hoilett Granero Faurlin Tarbs

And he chooses SWP? I mean, yeah, SWP got some tackles in, and he did put in one great cross, but apart from that, what did he do? Faurlin in the middle would have given us much more composure, and we would not have been bossed in midfield.

As for leaving Bobby on for 70 minutes, don't get me started.

Hughes has had some really bad luck, but he has made many awful decisions, and so ultimately, the blame lies with him.

Get him out tonight.

Barmy post.

Defoe plays upfront for spurs on his own & his hold up play is prob no better than cisse's & they dont do to bad with that system ,so why can't we as we showed that we can compete with the bigger teams with our passing. Hughes just likes playing his bum buddies from his old teams & should go now. Ffs he is even making excuses for that Muppet mbia so has clearly lost the plot.

Yes but Cisse keeps wanting to run in behind Defoe will take the ball to feet

would still offer more than Zamora who just stays in one position n offers little imo.

[Shania]

I disagree. Cisse can also hold it up if he has to, good players are not one-dimensional. Sure, he won't be as good as Bobby, but as he is a lot more mobile, there will be much better link up play with our midfielders.

IMO, AJ and Fabio was a huge part of our link up play. I feel we miss them both immensly. Without those two we are far more predictable going forward.

its no point debating with the zamora crowd, theyre just obsessed with having someone up there who will hold up the ball. they dont realise it is no use if you can hold up the ball and not do anything with it. i would rather have someone who would lose it half the time and do something useful half the time, than someone who just holds it up and nothing more.

what these clowns dont realise is, if you have 5 in midfield, even if the guy up front loses it, your midfield is there to win it back.

Yeah but i'm not the clown advocating no one up front or some one that loses it half the time.
Think you need a mirror pal ....heres one for ya......

I have not advocated no one up front.

As you're resorting to hyperbole and straw men arguments, you've just proved the clown you are

Let me guess, you were also one of those who was saying Tarbs should only be an impact sub

Clearly you know more than us all. All hail Marshy the tactical genius.

I didn't say I am a tactical genius. I am wrong on many occasions. I just find it comical that we should be playing Zamora ahead of Cisse all because Zamora can hold the ball up better! I mean, forget about scoring goals, about linking up with other players and helping them score goals, that's not the aim of the game, the aim is to hold the ball up!

Are you really that thick? What do you think the reason for holding the ball up is for?...........Do you honestly think it's to stand there and try to stop the opposition from getting it.
FFs I'm dealing with a doorkn*b here
Right read this slowly...ready?? You need a player to hold the ball, so that you can link the midfield players so they can attack, you can also use a player to nod the ball on for those same attacking players to run on beyond the defence....still with me? Now if the one up front on his own gets islolated then it's pretty pointless trying to flick the ball on, and again if isolated then he has no one to link with, and yesterday a number posters mentioned how deep Taarbs was because he had to drop and help the mf same with Hoilett. Now this imo is why things are not working out ok? Just my opinion....the same as you have an opinion only you resort to labelling posters that don't agree with you a clown.........Just cause you have a user name of a great footballer don't make you clever, you know......Marsh also means BOG!!!!
