Went with Willock as our two best home performances (Forest & Man City) so far this season have been with that midfield three. Also because I genuinely don't rate Longstaff at all, watching him attempt to pass the ball is excruciating and we're likely going to have >60% possession on Saturday.

Agreed with his general passing ability, but he's directly laid on at least two assists an assist this season that I can remember.

I don't see what Willock is bringing currently 2, really? Can only remember the Liverpool one. Just thinking Willock as I'm assuming that Bournemouth will sit off us and he'd be an extra body or late runner into the box when we attack. Similar to the Forest game which is probably the most similar pattern that Saturday will take. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Similar to the Forest game which is probably the most similar pattern that Saturday will take. I might be thinking of a pre-season one Ok my point is less valid now, but I do think he's capable of playing a good pass forwards and takes the onus off Bruno a bit, I'd have him in front of Bruno and Joelinton personally so he's less exposed with his pace defensively. I think Willock is stronger in a game like City where we're going to be under the cosh and he can break with pace. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted September 15, 2022 Share Posted September 15, 2022 Willock might be a great option off the bench tbh. You'd expect us to tire Bournemouth with us having lots of possession; bringing his energy and running on late on could be a good weapon if the scores are still level.

Longstaff for me is useful for breaking things up when we're sat deep against better sides; Man City were getting between our midfield line and defensive line far fewer times after Longstaff came on for Willock. But I don't think that Longstaff is good enough with the ball when we have the lions' share of possession in games, we saw that against Tranmere and at Wolves.

Miercoles Posted September 15, 2022 Share Posted September 15, 2022 I've been wondering about Willock/Longstaff myself. I'm wondering if its worth starting Longstaff over Willock so that we can push Bruno further up the pitch and leave Longstaff as the holding player. I want to see some more backheel volleys, ya know.

He was utter cack in the last couple of years after his body broke down, but he showed some promise before than. Like many others, the club just rekt them.
