Agree with this. ultimately this formation/ system was a failure against a very poor Wolves. Plenty of decent possession, effort and quality on the ball in defence and midfield but very little end product. Baldock and stevens completely surrounded when going down the wings with no forward/ sideways out ball. No overlapping centre backs. When we did very slowly work a crossing opportunity we had no aerial threat in their box. Brewster a passenger as usual. Our ridiculous absence of goal threat exposed once again. We’ve gone down because we haven’t scored enough goals. We keep trying a system that hasn’t worked since Christmas 2019 due to other teams working out how to stop us breaking quickly down the wingsand it’s reliance on the absent JOC/ Bash. Why does anyone imagine that champion ship teams won’t do the same, probably against a weakened Blades squad? I’m not going to do the definition of insanity quote because it’s worked to death.
Yep there is defo a resmblence.We cried out for Lunny to be dropped. Some have said Osborn deserved starts. So he drops Easter Island head and sticks Christy Brown in his place. osborn was totally out of position all evening, stupid waste of talent, nous and effort. Why oh why oh why oh why (it deserved that many) have we not tried Bogle inside from Baldock. been a no brainer for the last twenty games imho. Osborn instead of either Stevens or Fleck on the other side, ditto with a few less Why oh why's? I mean they might have created more for our useless strikers but there was always a reasonable chance that Bogle or Osborn might score in those two positions.
Another thing that has struck me all season but seemed to be even more apparent is we played very similarly to the 93/94 season in that the two blokes meant to stick the ball in the net, seemed to be miles away from the position they needed to be to score said goals.
But also, we've been woeful for virtually all of the 32 games with a few minor exceptions. Thought we played betterish than the last few games but looked slow, scared and generally unable to create a single chance all match. I can't deny shedding a little tear on full time, much as I enjoy his cheeky grin I did wonder what the actual f Fleck had to laugh about on the final whistle but maybe I'm being too harsh.
Onwards and upwards, even if upwards means rebuilding for a season and a new bloke to stamp his authority on t.
