Judge me on this season - Warne

[Footymad]

As he looks to build a squad for a successful 2017-18 season, Paul Warne is warning players it will be tough. - External Link

[Monkey46]

If he lasts a season.

[Grist_To_The_Mill]

I agree, give the bloke a chance but if it's a dodgy start the knives will be out

[leedsmiller]

Don't worry, Warney, take as long as you need, we on MillersMad aren't judgemental...

[millertop]

Yes will will certainly judge you

I hope it works out for him especially since he's had to go on a course (which he still needs to finish later on) for it to be in check with the rules.

"I am looking forward to a clean slate, really having a go and being judged for what I’ve done this year.” Warne asked...

So why is he being so negative to Ball ?

I don't think this lad wants to be a full back .... so is PW subtlety being constructive in his departure.

Ball is good enough to be a defensive utility player....with a full pre-season - fit - young - strong.....

Probably down to the new wage structure......gawd elp us !

Last season pre-season "sales" patter by TS on the training facility to entice young players to the club - modelled on Everton’s highly rated 'Finch Farm'....is long gone.

The club will now be run according to the turnstile clicking. No more major subsidised projects.....purely organic growth - so.........we must start to think like the old days.....:

"Ask not what your club can do for you, ask what you can do for your club"

Then we'll grow and deserve it together.....a big ask that - in our "better things to do society".

Down to the club's inclusivity policy.

Sounds likes he will probably play a 4-3-1-2 formation or maybe 4-4-1-1 formation for tougher matches. Barnsley fans are saying Williams plays the no 10 role. I understand D Ball does as well so thats why I come to that conclusion. So putting that pattern into some sort of team maybe the opening game could look summat like this:

O' Donnell
Fisher, Ajayi, Ihiekwe, Mattock
Forde, Frecks, Taylor
Ball
Clarke Harris, AN Other

If playing 4-4-1-1
Add Potter to centre of midfield and take out one of forwards.

[bogsdollox]

I think we should play 2,3,5 just like we did as kids - always plenty of action and goals - too much **** written about formations - we have let the Jonnie Foreigners dictate what formation and how we play.
For those of you on here under 60 years old I recommend you watch the 1966 World Cup games , fantastic football and no fancy diets and formations .

[PeteWaller]

Fans can hope and prey as much as they like. This club is going nowhere soon.

[gwru]

Rolymiller. Don't like yr side at all. Vaulks is gong to play either midfield or R back. Wouldn't select Forde or Taylor.

Going:

Odonnell

Fisher Ajayi Ihiekwe Mattock

Williams Vaulks Potter Bailey-King

Ball JCH
