Widge Posted April 10, 2015 Report Share Posted April 10, 2015 2-1-2-3-1-1 That's the formation I'd go with. It's the only one that makes sense in the grand scheme of things. I mean I'm not Tommy Wright, so what do I know about football? McFadden up top on his own, supported by Sam Parkin, Dan Smith and Ritchie Brittain playing fullback. NAP to win this one. Either that or go 4-2-3-1, which would be correct IMO and actually take this game seriously. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rik2304 Posted April 10, 2015 Report Share Posted April 10, 2015 I'd like to see Lappin playing in the enganche role for this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ali91 Posted April 10, 2015 Report Share Posted April 10, 2015 Because they aren't going to sell out the North, Ormond and the corner of the Main Stand so no need for tickets. The Ormond is mixed, I'd imagine Saints would want numbers in advance so they knew whether to move the family stand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm assuming you either don't know what that is, or haven't watched much of Lappin. That is quite frankly a stupid statement......., Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The closest thing we have is McFadden, but he's not good enough. "A range of passing" isn't what a Enganche is there for, for a kick off.

andy rhodes fancy watch Posted April 10, 2015 Report Share Posted April 10, 2015 Lappin struggles with simple 10 yard passes nevermind actual playmaking . Swap Lappin and McFadden with actual footballers and we'd be in a European spot . Aitchy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tranmere Saintee Posted April 10, 2015 Report Share Posted April 10, 2015 What in the name of holy holy feckin fek is an enganche? Which my spelling corrector robot was very, very suspicious of. The Enganche is literally the hook, the player that is more commonly described in modern tactical discussion as the pivot. Traditionally in Argentina the Enganche is the player that sits at the tip of the midfield and knits the possession together. He is the player that receives the ball and chooses how and when to release the ball to maximise the potential of the attacking movement.

PerthSeany Posted April 10, 2015 Report Share Posted April 10, 2015 What's the point in having a "pivot" we would just bypass it anyway with a big hoof forward. What we need is someone from midfield getting into the box and we need to produce better quality delivery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Center Half Posted April 10, 2015 Report Share Posted April 10, 2015 Hopefully other "Glory Hunters" are more interested than my "Glory hunters" as they are showing not a lot of interest in tomorrows game so if that is anything go with a normal 3K from Saints. .

lethamsaintee Posted April 10, 2015 Report Share Posted April 10, 2015 I personally hope we spring a few surprises the morra. Mannus on the wing, Banks up front, Aggie the tea lady up front and most importantly Super Saint as the enganche, whatever the **** that might be.
