MillersMad Matchthread - The Millers v Wigan

[frogmiller]

I've not read much of what Paul Warne has said this week but he'll have surely mentioned that he palyed for Wigan. He is entering the firt period of his managerial career where he should be feeling a bit of pressure. The form of late hasn't been good and the way we've been conceding goals is consistant but doesn't seem to be addressed!

The thing for me though is our change in formation in the way we were playing earlier in the season when everything clicked. We moved up the pitch together as a unit and we were itght in midfield. Losing Proctor has been the linchpin to our demise. With him we had a battering ram that seemed to get everyone moving as one. After his injury that carried on for a while and then the early advantage of fitness went. The oposition started using all of the pitch at the back stretching us as a forrud line meaning that the way we closed teams down wasn't posible using just Moore to do it.
Today we have to play two up front and make JCH play the disrupting roll that Proctor did so well. f he doesn't do it feck him off but if he does we have a normal system. I don't like using just the one up front especially at home. We haven't had Frex in the team who is capable of making up the numbers with Moore but without him Moore has become more isolated. With him having the ball lumped up to him with no one to flick on to is not for this level. Play two together with the ball passed to him and a partener that can compliment him.

If not we'll struggle because we don't keep the ball long enough and the defence is somewhat prone to not being up to the job.

I said earlier on int week that if Frex plays we win!

Come on lads make the Millers happy and put on a show worth paying the money to watch!

A rare trip up North for me today so let’s hope 3 points makes it worthwhile.

That's clever!

Yeah, more clever than the team selection.

But who knows it might work.

Bonjour Froglet from an overcast but moderately warm Tenerife.

Two up front, we’ll I never! It appears Warne does read my posts after all. He will call it a
4-4-1-1 though.

I’m running a different sweepstake today on how long Frecks stays on the pitch. I’m going for 63 minutes then another month out.
What do you reckon?

Adios for now 😎🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺

I do have my moments 😊

Oh Grist warne didn’t really have a choice since the Nero virus took its toll on the midfielders toilets
