Why play a winger up front and have forwards on the bench.
« on: September 01, 2018, 08:56:04 PM »
Nothing against Nicky Walker but he is not the goal scoring forward we need. Ok, he did well when he came on as a sub at half time in one match, he’s full of running and doesn’t give up but he shouldn’t be playing up front when forwards with experience are on the bench. They obviously need time to create relationships but they aren’t going to get that on the bench. Worried by Elliot’s aftermatch interview when he inferred we had a lack of wingers at the moment and preferred Walker up front. Give him a chance on the wing and give the forwards a chance to prove themselves.
Credit to Elliot for admitting he got the set up wrong in the first half today, but why leave it until half time to change it. It was obvious to all after 25 what needed changing!!

But Nicky Walker said in his radio interview that he prefers playing as a striker and enjoys it.

enjoying it and cutting it are two different things.
