Ikon Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 I still think he’s best in a deeper role. Preferably in a double pivot. Would like to see him and Tonali together with an athletic and technical attacking midfielder in front of them. Purely when it comes to player ability and style someone like Cunha would be perfect and it would also help Isak as well as giving more variety beings able to be really dangerous from central areas instead of going wide all the time. im not expecting to see us go similar to 4-2-3-1 but I REALLY think it would be the best way to go. Especially when you consider what we already have as well as what we need going forward. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lotus Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 Think Willock could’ve been in for JL yesterday as a runner in the 10 role of a 4231. Then bring JL on in the 2nd half and revert to our normal shape. Would’ve allowed Bruno & Tonali to play closer together as a deeper midfield 2. Been thinking for a while they’d both look good there. Anyway, didn’t happen.

Kanj Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 I mean I get what you guys are saying but we’ve won 18 Pl games with 3 man midfield setup on top of a cup. We’ve won the most games in the league outside of Liverpool and are sat at 3rd place right now. We were handedly beaten by a team needing a response after the CL exit and had fresher legs in key areas than us. A team that has only beaten us twice in 3 seasons. Not many top managers chop and change their formations when they are at the top end of the table either. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanj Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 ^ also want to add our world class manager is sick in hospital. No matter how good the setup is it’s going to eventually be a problem for any club. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

joeyt Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 In a match where you need your triangles at the edge of the box to be working really precisely I thought he was invaluable to us today. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

People vent genuine frustrations with players and then those players get defended. Everything you say is true, but the issues are definitely there and need addressing. Roy Keane regularly lost it and was an all time absolutely mint captain. People aren’t perfect. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gbandit Posted yesterday at 17:25 Share Posted yesterday at 17:25 Pretty conclusive quotes there, he’s not leaving unless something very unlikely happens, e.g. Real Madrid come in for him. Can’t imagine him signing for basically anyone apart from Real Madrid or Barca but don’t think either will be interested so he’s ours Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

dave s Posted 8 hours ago Share Posted 8 hours ago in the past we had players come and use us as a springboard to a better wage packet.. it doesn’t seem to be on Bruno’s mind in the slightest He’s captain of a team on the verge of qualifying for champions league twice in 3 seasons, lifted a cup, automatic first choice, family happy, good wages anyway- he’ll never be short of money .. go elsewhere and what happens?
