I haven't been able to get to the last two home games so listened to radio and buckley has mentioned a few times that we should push Scott up top, I think we sort of did in the two games and it made a difference according to humberside. But yeah I like the sound of him player as deep lying forward.

Quoted from Super Clive
I think we'll play Neilson up top when he comes back. Is he the answer up front? Sir alan buckley thinks so.

Good question.
Not fully convinced as yet based on what I've seen tbh but he can certainly find the net.
We know he can take players on and create space for himself too but then you wonder if that means he's better off playing deeper as a creative player.

Suppose my main concern would be whether he's gonna get manhandled and frustrated by big defenders.
But on the other hand it could be an advantage where trickery leaves them flat footed and he ends up running rings around them.

Does "deeper lying forward" mean playing behind the main striker(s) ?
If it's 4-3-3 at least he'll have more space out wide to do his thing.
Would be a bit suprised to see him up front in a 442 (especially with other strikers here) but obviously the proof is in the pudding and we'll see what happens...
