Gary Neville, that's a modern one for you.

You're so boring Whiffy, you disguise your lack of football knowledge by trying to belittle those that have it.

Well, it's actually known as zone 14, but I thought more people may understand it as 'the ten zone'. It's known as 'the golden square' and is the central area of the pitch between the centre circle and the penalty area of the goal you are attacking. It's the most desired area of the pitch a team tries to get into. Khan and Davies have both scored from there in the home games. It's also the area from which most assists come.

No, it's nothing to do with America. It originated I believe from Liverpool University. Last time I checked that wasn't in America. Ignorance is bliss to you and Belly though. Anything other that gerrit forrerd, 4-4-2, big man little man, don't mess about with it at the back, is frowned upon as it's 'not english football'.

Oh dear. BY is spot on. You’ve posted a load of crap and been exposed as a dick.

You make some pretty big assumptions about my lack of knowledge of the coaching side and me in general. This isn’t about me. This is about you sounding like one of the fake Yanks on Boston Goals.

You are the big expert sitting up there in the bleachers :) :)

Looking back it's incredible how much we missed Davies physical side of things upfront - He's got to start the next game. Danny Rose looks raring to go for me too, what a threat to have on the bench when things get tough. If he does stay I can see him forcing his way in to the starting eleven pretty soon.

I'm not sure on MacDonald ATM - Loads of effort and put in some good tackles down to that but his passing was poor. I would consider dropping him.

A very frustrating game. David Flitcroft made a brave decision to stick to the team that beat Accrington 6-1 (apart from Conrad Logan) and leave Craig Davies on the bench. Colchester came with a game plan to frustrate the Stags and nullify the attacking threat of Mansfield. They played five in midfield and played narrow which made it very difficult for the Stags’ players to thread balls through the centre of midfield to Otis Khan and Calum Butcher. They also pressed hard in midfield which made us play the ball back to our defenders who then resorted to trying to play long diagonal balls out wide which did not work. We also needed to up the tempo but Colchester slowed the game down at all opportunities. Gareth Ainsworth would have been proud. We kept going though and a wonder goal from Craig Davies on 82 minutes changed the game. I think it was our first shot on target. We should have won the game from there but we made the same mistake again of starting to drop back and not keeping possession of the ball. However we had the game in the bag and it was only Logan’s howler at the end that cost us. It was the second goal we have conceded this season from a long throw.

I thought Krystian Pearce and Alex MacDonald were our best players followed by Ryan Sweeney. David Flitcroft was right to bring Craig Davies on for Calum Butcher but I would have left Otis Khan on and took Tyler Walker off for Danny Rose. I would also have thought about taking Mal Benning off for Will Atkinson so CJ Hamilton could have 20 minutes bombing down the left. He works hard on the right but he does not have the same attacking threat as he often slows down to try and cut inside on to his left. When he does go outside he then struggles to put in a decent cross with his right foot.

If we are aiming for promotion then we should be aiming for at least four points from the away trips to Tranmere and Macclesfield. I was hoping for 10 points from our first five games but I’ll settle for 9. 11 would be fantastic.

Agree Darren, I also thought Benning should have been taken off and CJ switched. Benning was as ineffective as I can remember for a long time. I also would've left Khan on as he is capable of creating a moment out of nothing.

I don't see why we haven't tried Benning on the right and CJ on the left. Benning likes to cut inside anyway and obviously likes a strike from distance.

Ha ha ha, I was picking sides with three at the back in the 90's early 2000's Mr. oh so clever, Mr. modern football smarty pants. There was some old timer called Robson tried it in a World Cup once too you know. Although that was pre premier league so probably never happened.

You know what that space between the centre circle and the penalty box is called, it's called the space between the centre circle and the penalty box.

My point was that whether you have coached or not has absolutely nothing to do with my post which you two found so hilarious, purely because you had never heard of the zone 14 or the ten zone as I described it. Another thing that has obviously gone over your head. Haven't you got some oil to change or something?
