Change shape and style

4-4-2 and proper disciplined approach to maintaining positions and responsibilities.

If you cannot win the battle for MF then you might as well not bother turning up.

And stop chopping and changing players. It's becoming embarrassing now - that he can't get a tune out of any of them.

Our transfer dealings currently look like Aldi 'middle aisle' purchases. And Carrick looks more like Wilder by the game.

we can’t maintain positions and responsibilities if the players in those positions are not fit to take up those positions.. by not fit I mean.. not available.. injured!

You cannot win the battle for midfield if you’re not ‘on it’ we are all eggs in one basket with Howson.. as much as I love our new addition Lewis O’Brien he does strike me as more of an Adam Forshaw type player.. very good btw.. but not a direct like gif like replacement for Howson.

Chopping and changing players in order for them to fit into a specific system snd style of play.

Wilder was dogmatic with his approach to the bitter end.. another failing of Karanka’s too I feel. One trick ponies.

I'm still higher on our squad than most.

Really think we have to tell at least one of our midfielders to sit, defend, keep it simple - and nothing else.

Lots of options to achieve that.

It is more than dropping the 10 by 10 yards.

It is telling 1 player - you have no attacking responsibilities - you are there to cover the space in front of the centre backs.

You achieve that by sacrificing something elsewhere.

Our two midfielders are playing like they have cover behind - they don't.
