Tribal 0 Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 We don't play like Wimbledon though. But if we win, I honestly don't care how we play. We're not in a position to be precious about the quality of our football. Why? Because first and foremost we need to win football matches. We're not a Man United or an Arsenal where winning comes naturally and nice performances can be taken for granted. I can't actually believe I'm having to explain that btw. Funny, I was under the impression that we were unbeaten. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then you came along trying to be a clever shite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 34461 Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 Oh sorry, I didn't realise 4 games into a season we could start taking the unbeaten part for granted. My mistake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tinofbeans 86 Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 with the players we have a our disposal, i doubt very much we'd be able to emulate the fantastic football of a few years ago. look at the players we have now and the team of the mid 90's, we effectively during that time had everyone playing great football, this team will play effective football looking at it as we have no playmaker (rob lee in the 90's) and although the defenders seem competent defensively and comfortable on the ball, we don't have a phillipe albert or john beresford to bomb forward (as nzogbia will probably play down the left when jose enrique comes through). also if we did play that kind of football we'd be losing games 3-2 not winning them 1-0 in this league... things have changed.

Actually Enrique coming into the side and Zoggz moving upfield will quieten my angst somewhat. Last month SA was saying that he likes a proper def ie def who can defend and that was to cater for setting up with a more attacking stance or something like that iirc. He is not the def bombing forward school I don't think for what he is saying and doing so far. When we did play that kind of footie tho we had a very shaky def...I mean someone like Albert would just be laughed off the training park by the like of SA and Pearson if he claimed to be a def. I undrstand that we need to be setting up with the idea initially of not getting beat, but I want to see more footballing ambition from the side in the near future as well.
