Lightbulb moment for Hurst. 14:22 - Sep 19 with 3685 views

Think it will be a lightbulb moment for Hurst. Think the 4-2-3-1 formation and performance will solve his selection problems he’s been having.
Spences long term future was solved last night.

Have a number 9 to lead the line deservedly for the foreseeable future.

The 3 in bebind. Edwards/Nolan/Ward offered much more support to the number 9. That formation means the number 9 won’t be isolated.

Chalobah/Skuse could form a good anchoring pair.

Back four should settle with what we finished with.

Gerken is taking his chance.

Team for Bolton should be the one we finished with.!!

COYB. If Hurst sticks with this philosophy I will be very very happy.

Would you be happy with Paul Lambert?

Not really a lightbulb moment as all he did was revert to a style used previously.

We do need to see a run of games without significant changes to personnel. Not convinced PH sees the eleven who started the second half as his best eleven.

He may fee Nisala should be in defence but who does he replace?

He may see Walters as his best No 10.

In the weeks ahead he will have Huws & Dozzell to think about.

We do need a settled side but we need a win more.

He has been playing a 4-1-4-1 all season, but a flat four is cautious leaving the centre forward isolated. Last night he went with a 4-2-3-1 with Nolan more advanced as link between the anchors and the no.9. The 2 anchors also allow for the sidemen to play 5/10 yard higher up the pitch.
Its a actually a completely different approach to what he has been doing.

He does like Nsiala, but its performance based and he has been suspended whilst chambers and Pennington have been fairly solid in the 3 games.

Walters no where near creative or technically good enough for the no.10 role.

We do need either Dozzell or Huws for the creative link for sure.

Yep agree. I have never been Hirst out and thought it was so tin pot that people were suggesting this. I wanted him to stick to a system, be brave and give it time to gel. I saw the team sheet last night and gave up hope. Knee jerk and desperate. The first half then justified my fears. Enough of that nonsense now Paul and get back to plan A.

Agreed, big moment for Hurst come 3pm Saturday.
