Why? Explain why it wouldn’t work 

I don't even really understand where people are supposed to be playing.

Is Trippier meant to be playing right wing or full back?

Harvey Barnes is a winger, not a 10. You said he's scored goals from that position, he's literally never played that position in his entire career and scoring a few goals from a more central area does not mean he can play that role.

Bruno's scored a few headers from inside the box, does that mean he can play as a no.9?

Positions are for all you 1960's stans, still obessed with the WM formation, wingless diamonds and outside rights.

 

Cruyft changed all that shit in the 70s.

 

Now you're either a baller or you ain't

 

Not sure whether to ask you to pass the BBQ sauce, or to take it away

Because you are playing four players out of position you mentalist

Well it would work in our normal 4-3-3 set-up.

 

However, intentionally or otherwise, that graphic does not remotely resemble a 4-3-3.

it’s not, that’s the point. Can revert to 5 if under pressure. Trippier and Tonali can track back.. Joelinton moves in a bit.

 

Barnes and Gordon can switch around up front but while in possession, Trippier needs to be involved as he was our most creative player last season, despite the loss of form.

My concern is if things are that tight now PSR wise at the start of a new 3 years of financial regulations that we can only afford a total outlay of roughly 70m on transfers it doesn’t exactly bode well moving forwards. Or have I got it completely wrong?

3 days before the transfer window slams shut! Plenty of time…

So who’s LB / LWB in a 5?

Only one year (the first year) has dropped off. Still dealing with the following two years Isak, Gordon, Tonali etc 

 

think I’ve got that right anyway

He’s literally scored screamers from that position.

 

By this logic Fabian Schar should be playing at 10.

I could see Isak being sold next year, stock still very high, 25, maximum PSR profit potentially. Would be 80 million pure profit if goes for 100?

He’s the one player in the squad I’d be genuinely gutted to lose

Severe lack of pace in that back 3

[Lordshola]

From Eddies press conference, it’s clear we will not sign both a rw and cb. All our eggs are in the Guehi basket then…

I don’t know of I’m in the middle of a nervous breakdown or drunk, but I have this weird sense of optimism today that I haven’t had all window.

 

I think we get Guehi and Madueke before Friday.

Due to the lack of outgoings, I agree it'll only be one major signing.

 

At the same time though, I can't believe anyone still takes what Howe tells reporters too seriously.
