The College Dropout Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 Considering that if he wasn't in the team either De Jong or Perez would play and Wijnaldum would drop back then yes i'd argue he is. Absolute rubbish. No way could Wijnaldum play in Colbacks role. What a total waste of an attacking minded player who'll score and create plenty of goals for us this season playing him that far back. It's the sort of thing I'd expect from Pardew. In fact scrap that I don't even think he'd be that stupid. He's an attacking midfielder, that's where he's played all his career at Feyenoord and PSV. Except he played CM last year and everything he's best at lends itself to CM rather than it does AM. Also i'm not saying he should to do what Colback does That's the problem in itself, Colback is far too negative and we don't create anything through the middle because of it, we need more impetus from deep positions. Not sure where you got the idea that playing CM is a waste, might want to let Yaya Toure and Cesc Fabregas know that. Aye, according to whoscored he played CM last season and he managed 10 goals. He looks to have some discipline in that role too judging by how switched on defensively he was against Soton, i'd like to see him on the ball as much as possible. You get that at CM.

Mole_Toonfan Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 Mole, I honestly think it may not work. You are practically asking Winegum to sit deeper and give more contribution, linking from the back and roam forward and get into scoring position like what he did last match. The problem is he doesn't have the stamina to do that much. Yesterday he was knackered after 70 mins. You sure he can do that much? In Netherlands may be, but in EPL, under such pace, I really doubt that. And in addition, I feel extremely insecure to have Anita the only one protecting our back four. You forgot that stupid penalty Anita gave out last season? I think Winegum should stick to where he played last match. If you want a more attacking set up, it should be Sissoko to play in centre as a box to box, not Winegum. Save his energy for scoring goals. It's not even that attacking, it's a CM and a DM with attacking midfielders/wingers in front of them. It's a standard 4231, majority of teams have one offensive minded CMs in that system. I hate how people have been brain washed into thinking that you need two midfielders sitting otherwise it's too attacking. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gallowgate Toon Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 I have no doubt he can play as a CM. With the positions Colback was taking up yesterday, I think he'd be ideal in that role. That way, instead of passing it back/sideways when receiving it in 5 yards of space, we'll have someone who can turn and run. His stamina will improve once his fitness gets up and he's more used to the league. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 I am desperate to see De Jong start and play the majority of a game with Wijnaldum and Anita. Poor guy gets put on when both are out, and then no one gets him the ball. This is what I want to see. De Jong isn't an impact sub at all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure where you got the idea that playing CM is a waste, might want to let Yaya Toure and Cesc Fabregas know that. I watched nearly every PSV game last season and he played primarily as an attacking midfielder, as he did throughout his Feyenoord career. I never once seen him play just in front of the back 4. You can't have 10 attacking outfield players on the pitch man, we'd get murdered as soon as we lost the ball if we did. David Batty was one of the most negative players we had in the sense that he rarely passed the ball forward but he was great at winning the ball and giving it to someone who would dribble with it and get it forward. He played CM in a 433, that's a fact. I don't want to get all TCD but you might want to reconsider your opinion I never said play him in front of a back 4 either, there's a difference between sitting in front of the back 4 and playing as a B2B CM and linking play between a DM and a AM. It's not an opinion it's a fact. He played up top last season with De Jong and Depay. Like I said I watched the vast majority of their games last season so I know that to be a fact. Guardado, Mayer and Narsingh generally played as the 3 in midfield with but he would interchange with Narsingh who played more wide right. Narsingh is a winger man He played with Guardado and Mayer and Narsingh and Depay were either side of De Jong. And Wijnaldum is an attacking midfielder yet you want to take him out of his favoured position and play him in Colbacks role which takes away the majority of his attacking threat. And if you think him and Anita would be a strong enough midfield pairing in this league when we won't have the majority of position in a lot of games, unlike PSV who dominate just about every game they play in Holland, then you're thicker than I first gave you credit for.

The College Dropout Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 Wijnaldum seems physically very capable. I don't think he needs a Scott Parker alongside him but I guess he's not as good as Modric but I hope can bring some guile to that position. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
