You mean that tactic that just about every team in the world employs?!

Play to our strengths, our CB's are all good at attacking corners, and should be in the box when we have corners/freekicks....


It still leaves me uneasy when they pump a long ball back at us when a set piece breaks down and we have a lightweight defender marking a big powerful striker. Just because about every team in the world employs it that doesn't make it a sound tactic. Lots of teams play 4-3-3 but we don't seem to be able to function using it.

But we're playing well in parts going forward too by the sound of it.

The problem is that at corners and set pieces both centre-backs go up and that leaves us a bit vulnerable. I think a lot of teams have cottoned on to this and leave a big striker up front for the quick ball from defense.


Name me a team that dosn't send both centerbacks up for corners. They are generally the tallest players on the pitch and therefore the biggest threat at corners.

We're under pressure mate.
McKeown pulled off what sounded a blinder and they missed at least one good chance.
That said we might have gone 2 up with a Pearson header ourselves.
Hopefully HT break will sort us out.


Cheers 80s Lets hope they come out and get an early goal.


Grimsby and proud!

So Marshall's the other central midfielder ?
If so not sure I like it either.

We seem to be able to pass it about so much better with a wider option, stick to 442 attack the flanks and win those corners etc, 433 doesnt work for us

Or maybe it's a combination of 433/442 with them fanning out and Southwell pushing up where he can.
Just hope Hannah's not isolated out wide.

We're playing 4-4-2 not 4-4-3, Southwell is playing wide right.
