Ketsbaia Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 Need a proper winger too, not this left-footers-on-the-right cutting inside craze. It's so easy to defend against and it's too predictable. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye but Rafa likes to employ that tactic quite a lot, it's about the overlapping fullback giving the width as the wingers drag players inside. Prefer the old fashioned winger getting a yard and whipping in a cross myself. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 Would be canny cool if we'd just signed a two-footed winger who could cut inside and shoot or go outside and cross. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's so easy to defend against and it's too predictable. You reckon? It might be predictable, but it's often unstoppable regardless and with an overlapping fullback you can get the best of both worlds. Old fashioned wingers aren't really a thing anymore, although wingbacks are obviously making a big come back in 352s. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wingers that just try and go round the outside of the full back and whip it in are far more predictable Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeyt Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 We do seem to get linked with loads of left footed right wingers. Saw we were linked with Snodgrass again this morning Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LRD Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 How many left-footers do we currently have? Seems a fairly high number. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
afar Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 So Boro are buying Randolph and Reading are going for the Mackem, suddenly the market for Darlow has disappeared. Should have taken the 5 Million imo, since Rafa obviously doesn't rate him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The College Dropout Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 Love a two-footed player. Andros was okay with both feet iirc. Martins could shoot with either. Very rare to see 2-footed passers. Cazorla is the only one I can think of in recent memory. Nani could shoot with both but I thinke he passed and crossed with the right. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ikon Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 This is what we need in my opinion. I could live without a new GK even though it would be nice to get a better one. I hope we have money in the bank Maybe we could loan a player in one or two of these positions. CM (strong defensively) ACM/#10 (one that can play both roles) LB (one that can pass a ball and defend) Striker (fuck knows) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 I could live without a new GK even though it would be nice to get a better one. I don't get this at all, mind. Elliot and Darlow just aren't PL standard. What good is it building a functional attack and vaguely solid midfield/defence if the keeper absolutely isn't up to his end of the bargain?

Elliot and Darlow just aren't PL standard. What good is it building a functional attack and vaguely solid midfield/defence if the keeper absolutely isn't up to his end of the bargain? Yup. Fairly certain Rafa is after a GK who can organise a defence properly, and then release the ball with precision. We haven't had one of those in eons. We've had, for the most part, pretty good shot stoppers and that's it. I'd rather a GK be involved in organisation, using his position to read the game, than having to pull out class saves all the time to bail us out because the defence is all over the shop.
