JED also said that our biggest problem the season before was that we were too one dimensional. He then built a huge squad, fixed on playing only one system.
A system that required fullbacks, which we also didn't have. He played Powell there first game of the season and we could all see just how much Buchs was struggling in that role.
A system that used only 3 midfielders and yet the squad is full of them.
To me there was absolutely no structure, no cohesion and no thought given to the recruitment process in terms of balancing the squad. Not only in terms of positions and systems, but also in terms of pace vs metal, left vs right footers.
You can tell people they need to forget about Wilder all you want to. The fact is, recruitment under him considered all of the points above and recruitment since he left, has not. Its not even a wilder 'thing' is just common sense.
Agreed, Wilder had balance all over the pitch. How Melville is still nicking a living is totally beyond me!
