This post is dangerously sexy.Greer out. Kayal as captain.
Sorted.
If Greer turns out to be our No. 3 centre back then well done to him to helping us off to a great start. He still has much to give this season, and I thought he had a good game on Saturday.
Yes i thought so too...and he never had his head turned by that 50k bid by Barnsley
Nothing against Greer. I don't think he's "shit" or any nonsense. Just think he is slowing up a bit, and has always struggled in the air. He did actually play quite well against Blackburn, but long term I see the other two.
Thought he had a stinker myself. All over the place in the first half, though admittedly got stronger in the second.
However, there can be no doubt that he has been key in our success and poor performances/slower/less sharp or not, he is part of a defence that has been keeping clean sheets. I do agree the way forward is without him, but at the moment we seem to be doing okay.
Yes let's drop our defender and captain after 4 wins from 5 and only 3 conceded.

This ultra defensive system you won't read about in the modern tactical systems as it dates back to the Uruguyan national side back into the seventies.
Three centre backs, but without wing-backs. One of the centre-backs (Dunk would be best) has licence to go forward and because there are three centre backs on the pitch there is no need for the defensive midfielder to drop back into cover.
So it is conceivable that it possible to play Greer, Dunk and Uwe Hünemeier. Don't know if I like the system but if there is any team I would play it against it would be Ipswich away with Darryl Murphy, Smith and Berra all good in the air.
