Cuthbert looks like he's got a bit of pace. Or is he just one of those people that look like they're running fast, but actually he's not really moving that fast at all?

The whole team needs to learn how to push up the field in unison. I've noticed Greer often sits deeper to provide an outlet if needs be. Unfortunately it gets used quite often and the ball punted long, which doesn't always help matters.


The two centre backs are very similar players neither has exceptional pace, if they played a high-line (square) they would be hammered even more by the ball over the top (pace). With Greer dropping deeper this definitely gives us more advantages than disadvantages defensively. It is good to see football played from the back (Greer the normal option to receive) when we are in attacking mode.

Dell, not only have you taken what I said completely out of context, you've also repeated what everyone else has already said.

Good work.

If he played higher up the pitch he'd get done over the top every single time as he hasnt the pace to keep up with the strikers, then people would be moaning about that.

Isn't this what happened for all nearly all the goals at Gillingham, I assume that Greer or Wilson have decided to drop back to avoid this happening again.

Greer plays in a very similar way to Culverhouse when he was here towards the end of his career.

I prefer this way of playing to the Viveash and Reeves halfway line offside trap. The problems not Greer or the defence really we just need to keep more possession towards the end of games and pressure the opposition more further up the pitch. As the season goes on I'm sure we'll continue to gel and work as more of a unit.
