buzza Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 If we went 433 or 442 we could deffo fit berahino into the side. We could do with some raw pace and skill up front to offset Mitro's obvious qualities and defects... I would rather the 433 version as someone previously stated, all out Keeganesque attack....

If berahino comes in it will be to play instead of Mitro or alongside with Wijnaldum in behind. Rtaher he didn't come and we used the money elsewhere than do as you propose.

Shush Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 Would rather not sign Berahino if it meant the end of Perez to be honest. Would be completely pointless. Of course it won't be the end of Perez. Right now we need goals, Perez and Mitro need relief as they aren't ready to bang them in each week. To compete you've got to have options in your team, Perez is clever enough to be useful in a number of positions, whether it be with Berahino, playing deeper, wider or in a front three. Or simply giving Perez a break and mixing it up etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mole_Toonfan Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 Would rather not sign Berahino if it meant the end of Perez to be honest. Would be completely pointless. Why? We need another striker regardless and we can't just not do that because it might upset Perez. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minhosa Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 No need to shove all our purples into the side at the same time - god forbid we have options off the bench, or different formations for home/away etc It's not about that though, it's about a top prospect like Perez wanting game time every week. He's not going to be too happy sitting on the bench at a relegation struggler. He could do that at Spurs and be playing Champions League football and seeing more game time due to volume of games. Fair enough, if it's Anita or Colback, but not someone with Perez's ability. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course I'd like to sign Berahino and rotate him and Perez, just don't want Perez sold because we've bought another striker. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanshithispantz Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 If Perez is going to be off then he's going to be off, we cannot do a Ba and pander to him at the expense of the team*. Like Mitrovic he's only 22 as well, I think they should expect competition. Not that I think Perez is bad for the team like, but we need strikers, and if a striker we sign is competing for Perez' place then so be it, it's a good thing.

James Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 Where do we play Berahino (in what system?) should we sign him? I'd sincerely hope it's to play WITH Mitro and not in place of him. Fantasy stuff, colback will play, and its too offensive. I want this 442 Sissoko Shelvey Gini Perez Mitro Berahino 433 Shelvey Sissoko Gini Berahino Perez Mitro Both would be horrific without a more defensive minded midfielder in there.

mrmojorisin75 Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 I agree. What we're playing atm seems to work very well as there's enough cover for the creaky defence and enough going forward with Mitros hold up play to worry the other team. Feels like a very bad idea to fuck with things beyond buying some better backup/players to challenge positions. In the short term I mean obviously.

Zero Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 Perez will definitely ask to leave if we sign someone and threaten his starting spot. No point for him to stay as a substitute for us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Banaloona Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 Im glad the club are supposedly looking elsewhere. Levy and Peace are taking the piss for wanting 14m and upwards of 30m for Townsend and Berahino respectively. Players who don't even play, yet they value them as high as an important first team player integral to the team. I'd go for Phillips from QPR as a Townsend alternative (4m). Who knows who we are going to target as a Centre Forward. Certainly not this Ramirez, too much of a risk given the predicament we are in - Maybe in the summer if we stay up.

TRon Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 Would rather not sign Berahino if it meant the end of Perez to be honest. Would be completely pointless. Totally different players though. Perez and Mitro work okay together, but both are almost support strikers, neither of them will get behind defences with their pace in the way Berahino does. We are relying too much on Gini's goals in the current set up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kanj Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 Whoever you sign, you sign them as a Wide Forward on the left or Winger on the left. That'll properly balance the attack and keep Shelvey in his CM role, a DM that we will always play, and Gini in the #10. Sissoko in some sort of right hand side / wide right midfield position will then continue to remain as he's our main counter attacking outlet.
