Maboza Posted July 24, 2019 Report Share Posted July 24, 2019 We seem to suffer from a complete lack of movement and any sort of dynamic plan in the final third and this was very much prevalent last season as well. We're so static at times it's unreal and then we have floated balls up to Mullen where best case scenario it results in a defender heading it out and getting us up the park. Only for poor movement from the throw-in to usually result in us surrendering possession or retreating and losing position. So... apart from the obvious need for new signings - should we be looking to get an attacking coach on board? Our backroom team of Goodwin, Sharp, McManus (and MacPherson) have plenty of experience for defence/midfield. We have a goalie coach in Langfield. Are we neglecting our attacking midfielders and strikers who have very limited experience in the top flight? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chalky1 Posted July 24, 2019 Report Share Posted July 24, 2019 No doubt people on here would want them fired after a goalless draw in the first involvement with the squad, Defo need to improve the final ball into the box along with the attacking players positioning.

Jrok Posted July 24, 2019 Report Share Posted July 24, 2019 It looks like we barely have enough cash to buy players without spending money on staff.Unless we could get a player coach ??? For the attacking option or lack thereof.It makes sense but we don't have the funds this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if Thommo would be a good coach, but someone to just work with the boys and try to boost their confidence would work. Probably already on the radar.
