oldishowl Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 We need to decide which system we are going to be playing. Kachunga is a wide player in a 433/451 system. Can’t see a role for him in a 352 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can’t see a role for him in a 352 My thoughts too, but also worth considering that 343 the formation of choice for a few clubs these days. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NOT jack whitham Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 Job for Beatie to turn him into a regular goalscorer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S72 Owl Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 Would be a good signing if we were going 4-3-3. Not sure where he’d fit in 3-5-2 because I couldn’t see him at wing back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beauchief Owl Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 If he's what the new staff see as fitting into their plans, then it's a reasonable move. I would like to see Murphy back but I think Newcastle will sell him and he'll cost too much a bit like Hector last summer. Disappointing considering how money has been thrown away on lesser players than these. Nevertheless, DC is clearly backing the manager and is still investing heavily in spite of the criticism he gets at times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeonLeon Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 Could see us playing a 3-4-3 with someone like Odubajo and Reach at the wide men in the 4, Bannan and Luongo in the centre. A big man uptop with players like Kachunga and Windass either side. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hughes has worked with him at Huddersfield. Scored 12 from RW, on a free I think it’s a good signing. Good point on the Hughes link, not a player I would have been looking at but Hughes worked well with him previously so might be a factor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They did a job for the team in that position, Murphy especially but defending isn't their game and I would expect Murphy to be looking for a move where he will not have the defensive responsibility of wing-back next season.

Bluesteel Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 (edited) He was good the season Hudds went up but I still felt Huddersfield lacked a proper focal point and we’re a good striker away from a good side even then. Hasn’t done much since. We’d be hoping to do a bit of a Wilder rejuvenation like with Clarke and Mcgoldrick. Clearly some ability there but hasn’t gone his way in recent years. I think Dunkley should be a good one but perhaps unsurprisingly we are going to be lacking in guaranteed quality and taking plenty of gambles. We need a good few strikers though so some will fall in this bracket. 28 years old though so not much resale value Edited August 13, 2020 by Bluesteel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe we will ditch that. It could’ve been temporary with the players available Edited August 13, 2020 by Bluesteel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
