KaKa Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 All he had to do if he wanted to play Gayle was have Joelinton play in behind him, Almiron on the left and ASM on the right. Why is that so difficult for goodness sake?! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
loki679 Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 I've come up with this revolutionary new formation. 4-4-2. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kanji Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 Simeone’s Atletico have been using it for a while, no idea if they have this past season. They played it the other day versus Liverpool. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeyt Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 There’s bloody nothing wrong with 4-4-2 the issue is he came out with the absolute worst lineup for it and I’m sure the tactics will be non existent I can’t think of a single successful team that has played 442 since arguably Ferguson’s Man United. It’s been a dead formation for years unless you like/want Allardyce football Leicester? Okazaki was more of a 10 though wasn’t he? I think they went 4 4 2 when they played Ulloa but yeah okazaki was probably a bit deeper Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KaKa Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 Kinda hoped it might be more: Dubravka Manquillo Lascelles Fernandez Rose Hayden Shelvey Ritchie Gayle Joelinton Almiron But if it's Dubravka Manquillo Lascelles Fernandez Rose Ritchie Hayden Shelvey Almiron Gayle Joelinton then it's fucking pap. Yours might be worse Gayle on the right man?! Woah Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ikon Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 If it's 2 vs 2 in CM I can see this paying off considering how dynamic Shelvey is. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kanji Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 Regardless don’t beat him for the 4-4-2 just beat him With knowing that whatever formation we have set up and the players out there they’ll be fucking lost and useless. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 Kinda hoped it might be more: Dubravka Manquillo Lascelles Fernandez Rose Hayden Shelvey Ritchie Gayle Joelinton Almiron But if it's Dubravka Manquillo Lascelles Fernandez Rose Ritchie Hayden Shelvey Almiron Gayle Joelinton then it's fucking pap.

mrmojorisin75 Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 Starforth reckons it might be 4231 with Joelinton on the left. Watch him play Almiron on the right. Imma lose it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoveItIfWeBeatU Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 Weird how Matty Longstaff hasn't got a game for awhile considering he has actually had some shots on goal and scored a couple of goals. I see Muto still never gets near the squad now that he has recovered from injury. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ikon Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 I'd try with this front four I think. If I had to use the same players. Or maybe switch Miggy and ASM. Joelinton ASM. Miggy Gayle Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest neesy111 Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 Starforth reckons it might be 4231 with Joelinton on the left. Would be even more daft to leave ASM on the bench if we are playing that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoveItIfWeBeatU Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 Matty not getting a look because he’s not signing their shit contract offer Possibly. Not getting a game and not getting the contract offer he wants will make his mind up for him to leave. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 Win this and 2 more wins will see safety comfortably achieved. This will be the equivalent of finishing 5th under Pardew, only the King had much better players and could wing his way though storms. Next season Bruce takes his beloved home team down. I’m hoping it’s this season of course so next season he avoids a double relegation with his beloved home team, finishing an impressive mid-table. Newsflash mate, he never got the Man U job.

Stifler Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 ASM benched, he’s fucking thick as fuck. Our only real outlet and he’s benched him. Bruce needs to be locked into a mental institution. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
