Coincidence?

So since Harris has come in Madine starts looking like a footballer and Ward, Glatzel and Tomlin start scoring goals.

Maybe the problem was the system not the players ?

If we can stop giving teams a 2 or 3 goal start we could be in business.

I said all along that we need to give Glatzel a ball in behind to run on to. He got one today and put it in, more to come I think !!

Could be a controversial view but if personally keep madine ward and glatzel as our main forwards. With Tomlin supplying quality balls we have 3 guys who are all a bit different but should suit different approaches and give cover for the run in. I don't think we need strikers. We need dominant mid fielders and some full backs IMHO

Been banging on about this everytime people slagged off these players it was system they played in that was the problem! People may not be impressed with Harris but he's certainly changed way we play? Ok not perfect but he's using players short of confidence and use to long ball all the time, may not finish top 6 but st least got a chance...

It's been obvious for a long time that strikers would suffer in NW system. Not to say his system was wrong, it got us promotion and almost kept us up but a goal scoring striker was unlikely.

Sort out new defenders one midfielder and we'll be in the promotion race
