Jackett players in Cowley system - stayinupforever - 13-04-2021

Doesn't work.

Naylor is the most obvious example of that. Whereas Close (even better in the correct position) already looks more comfortable.

Agree. Can’t make a silk purse out of a sows ear

But also what doesnt work is Jackett players in a Jackett system ;-)

The silver lining is that the ball is mostly played along the deck. We just have some really poor personnel executing the plan.

of all our players who do we think has the best and worst first touch?
worst sadly does seem to be Marquis.
Best. Jack (as he often immediately gets the ball rolling to where he can play a pass from) 

Which would worry me as a manager if the best first touch is a centre half.

I honestly thought we had signed a player with the surname ‘terriblefirstouch’ as I heard it mentioned so many times on tuesday

Toss up between Marquis and Raggett. You never know where the balls gonna end up when it’s heading in their direction.

Probs Ben Close. Takes the ball and finds a blue shirt.


RE: Jackett players in Cowley system - Hammie - 15-04-2021

I'd agree with Close too


RE: Jackett players in Cowley system - ForeverPompey - 17-04-2021

Jack's got a good touch.. unfortunately it's usually with opponents' legs.
