Just to change the conversation a bit (bored), what would your starting eleven be? and what formation?

#let's all assume we get Mitrovic in and a new robust centre back just to make it a bit more interesting...

----------------------------Krul (cappy)----------------------------

Janmaat----------New def----------Colo-------------Haidara

--------------------------Tiote-------------------------------

Aarons---------Winegum---------Moussa-------Perez

----------------------------mitrovic-----------------------

 

Subs: fatty, Cisse, Anita, lascelles, Dummet, Cabella

 

A fit De Jong should be the first name on the team sheet to be honest.

 

De jong should be in the team. him or wijnaldum as captain.

Aarons i would play on the left and i would prefer cabella over perez on RW.

Not sure about tiote either?

Fatty should be replaced by Darlow.

Front 6, for me:

 

Anita

Wijnaldum

 

Sissoko

De Jong

Cabella

 

Mitrovic

 

I'm basically with this for the time being but I'd have Perez over Cabella. And Cisse over Mitrovic until we sign him and let them fight it out for the main man.

I like that. I want that Duth trio central. Sissoko has done well enough out wide, and in a team that moves the ball better can drift inwards occasionally too.

 

Nice  :thup:

I'm taking a punt on Cabella. If he has not improved after half a dozen games we should drop him.

 

Perez would be first sub, every time for me. Have no qualms seeing the lad start either.

class. no injuries and sort out the defence and we could be in for a great season. (fingers crossed)

I don't see any evidence that Mitrovic would be better than Cisse. He's only 20 like tbf but I'm sure Cisse would absolutely take the piss in the Belgian league if he was there. Or is it that people think it's likely that Cisse will leave?

Suppose I could shove winegum into tiotes position and move De jong further forward:

-------------Krul---------------

Janmaat--New---Colo---Haidara

-------------winegum---------------

Perez---Dejong--Moussa---Aarons

---------------Nitro-vic--------------

prolem is (at least for me) i would like wijnaldum, sissoko and De Jong central - but none of them should be used as a dm imo.

 

not sure if this could work.

 

        wijnaldum  sissoko              both box-to-box players imo.

 

Rw              de Jong      Lw

 

                  striker

Anita is not a first XI player. And certainly not a first XI defensive midfielder.

 

Not ready to accept that assertion at all. I need to see more of him there in a better setup.

 

No one was saying this when he first joined, and looked solid. How about that performance against West Ham by the way?

 

Put him in a team that presses as a unit, and not just leaves him back there to sit in front of an undisciplined defence and behind an undisciplined midfield, and then let's see.

no matter how much i fuck around with personnel and formations i just can't get anything that suits, best i can come up with atm is this with the width having to come from jamaat & haidara, plus sissoko and wijnaldum using their pace and power to make runs into the channels:

 

                  mitrovic

      de jong              cabella

 

wijnaldum    anita    sissoko

Sissoko out wide in a team with no movement and passing to just chase long punts down the line is the work of the devil. Yes, I hated that.

 

If we are really going to try and play it won't be about that.

I love how totally confused and befuddled we are at having even the slightest hint of squad depth :lol:

 

What's this? Something other than total and utter shit on the bench? I don't get it!
