I’ll be honest, I haven’t been that impressed with him so far. I don’t think we've played to his strengths and got players around him enough. Plus he’s not had many good crosses being played in. The times when he has had opportunities though he hasn’t looked very convincing and I’d like to see him getting hold of the ball better.
I haven’t seen him getting into good areas and he’s been too far away from goal. Against Barnsley, Garner came on for him he instantly linked up with someone, something Moore didn’t do. I hope I’m wrong but he doesn’t look like he’s going to score us 10-15 goals which is what we really need. I’m not skating the lad but for me the jury’s still out.
I know many wont agree but I'd love see a 4-4-2 Garner and Moore up top!
The "Powell role" is wasted so far bar the Cardiff game... Go 442. Let Lowe and massey work the wings. Early crosses too. Garner wins a ton of free kicks. Would be a great foil for Moore. If we do win the free kicks then mulgrew can deliver the garner Moore dunkley can do some damageI know many wont agree but I'd love see a 4-4-2 Garner and Moore up top!

Personally I would like to see Pilkington play in place of Massey. I think, having seen Massey play this season, he has taken a step back in his development. The only game we have really shone this season was when Pilkington was fit and playing and we had genuine width on the pitch. In Pilkington we have an experienced player who, on his day is capable of producing the incisive pass or cross we need and is also able to get to the bye line.
Massey is a more direct player who likes to drift inside to a more central position, if we play Moore and Garner/ Windass as strike partnership we need our wide men to stay tight to the whitewash, otherwise we crowd the centre and lose the service from the wings. The wing men should also be coming in on the far post when we attack to pick up the over hit balls that so often happen and playing them back across the six yard box.
Why not Lowe or Massey Morsy or Evans Windass, Naismith or JacobsWindass will be the man to play alongside him when fit and, I have no doubt that this will make a difference, but the rest of the team will also have to play their part and give service to the two of them instead of knocking high hopeful balls forward. We need to get our wide players taking on the full backs and getting to the line to pull the ball back giving Moore chance to use his heading ability in front of goal instead of half way up the pitch.
If 442 could save his job let's hope he sticks to 6 at the back ??I do genuinely think a switch to 442 could save his job. Forget the system we only by pass it anyway. Under cook we are an awful long ball side. Best he can hope for is we become an effective long ball side. To do this it probably means two strikers, sod the attacking mid all we do is punt over his head aimlessly. Dunkleys the biggest culprit of that
Entralling stuff for us fans ahead. We need fresh ideas were really going nowhere here. Well we are going somewhere and that's down at an alarming nosedive
