Wow, Dancing, yes. Cookie is keeping us doing the same thing that doesn't work. The better we do it the more predictable it is to the opposition.
He is disregarding two major factors - at football the aim is to win and you do it by scoring goals.
Within that very loose framework it is important to have players on the pitch who can score goals. Against Wealdstone we had none.
McCallum has top-scored at this level. Dobra chips in with goals and assists for goals. Kings scores very regularly considering where he plays and he creates a lot of problems for the opposition (and one or two for us). Ty Williams was showing an eye for goal before he was dispensed with. WE didn't put a single player on that pitch you'd say was likely to score, so scoring one was an achievement. Uchegbulam always looks keen to have a go at goal too .....
I like 3-4-3 as a system to get you goals, but I wouldn't argue with any change. It is simply ridiculous to keep setting up in such a way that everyone we play is confident they can keep us goalless to halftime. Eventually someone will slip up and lose to us and unfortunately that will encourage Cookie to keep going.
