toontownman Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 Moot point, both players will be deployed on the right wing anyway! I've always thought of DeJong like a quicker more talented version of Nolan. Think he will sit just behind the striker. Would expect Moussa and Winjaldum to be told to play deeper..or and I'm only half kidding, pushed out wide. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest n4e Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 Based on absolutely nothing I think we might see something like this: Mitrovic Cabella SDJ Wijnaldum Sissoko Tiote With Wijnaldum drifting inside and having Janmaat bombing on to provide the width on that side.

Kanj Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 Id throw in Perez over Cabella but see that being something likely too. Anyone's guess as the central pairing too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

In your guess? good fucking question , i've literally no idea who he'd pick from here: abeid vurn winegum sissoko cabella colback aarons tiote vuckic obertang bigi kemen lined up like this with abeid having most defensive responsibility: mitrovic de jong aarons winegum cabella abeid i think we'll be looking to get rid of a few midfielders like, we have to be surely? from that i'd play aarons, abeid, winegum & cabella probably (assuming sissoko goes, if not him on the right ahead of cabella) and see how they get on but i suspect geordie jack will always find his way in somehow Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mole_Toonfan Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 I personally would go with Perez, a new striker and Aarons/New winger as a front 3, then have Wijnaldum and De Jong / Cabella support them (because let's face it it's going to be rare that both are available at the same time) with a sitting midfielder behind them. Also I'm assuming Sissoko would be sold if we signed Wijnaldum, (swap them around if that's not the case as I don't believe we'll have both). Not that it matters mind as we miles away from any of this as it stands. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liking this tbh. Mitrovic Cisse Cabella SDJ Wijnaldum Aarons Marveaux Perez Sissoko Tiote Abeid Vurn Haidara New New Janmaat Dummet Colo Lascalles New Krul Darlow Excess: Bigi, Kemen, Vuckic, Colback, Riviere, Obertan, Williamson, Ferguson, Armstrong, Elliot, Woodman, Good, Heardman, Smith, Sterry, Gillesphey We are also after another winger at least on top of the five suggested above. Would expect Sissoko and maybe Cabella to be out the door, possibly Marveaux, Abeid and the forest lads back out on loan. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair, while it might hinder his game time having new players, it will lessen the pressure of expectation and give him a chance to grow. Still think he will get some decent minutes, he is mint.

Shayno Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 Don't McLaren sides generally play 4-3-3 these days, without a CAM and two box-to box midfielders instead? Wouldn't we be looking at a formation more like this? I think this role would suit Sissoko, would Wijnaldum be able to play this position as well?

Ikon Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 Jetro Willems flying over with Wijnaldum today as well... Naah but i'd f***ing love it! Him and Janmaat as fullbacks! Would easily want us to sign a quality LB instead of a second striker (provided that Cissé stays of course) We'll probably only buy one striker and no LB though Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The College Dropout Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 Sissoko can't play in a midfield 2 imo. I'm certain Wijnaldum is his replacement in any case. Not sure if he's an improvement either. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
