Plus with the promised Premier riches available you'd think they would be more likely to not try demanding over the odds for a player they don't need. Yeah I agree they will always have a core of players who they deem not good enough for PL. Depends if those players want to play or are happy to sit on their contracts for a year or two.

gurujuan Posted September 9, 2020 Share Posted September 9, 2020 Well instantly this would look better, in a 4-3-3 (forget the three at the back nonsense) Dawson Palmer Iorfa Borner or Dunkley Penney Luongo Brown Bannan Kachunga Zohore Windass 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve a pretty good idea how it looks, with half the centre backs looking distinctly uncomfortable in the system If we do stick with it, out of interest, which of the forwards would you leave out?

Spot on this, also the relegated clubs who need wages off the board. Look at Watford for example they have about 10 strikers on there books !!!

Well if we sign Zohore I would play him and Windass first choice. I agree that some look uncomfortable in the 3 at the back. Specifically Lees who stinks in that central role.

We switch to 3, then people say nah let’s revert to 4. The decision has been made. Monk has already said 352 was their main focus in pre-season. Let’s give it a go.

Not everyone is going to be fit at all times so we can’t just bank on a first eleven plus there’s competition for places and the days we have to go more direct to consider. That 4-3-3 looks a very able team but there’s no reason we can’t mix it up a bit when required. I think we have the team for 4-3-3 and 4-4-2 minus the strikers we need but the 3-5-2 hasn’t conceded so far and needs more work than the other two systems.

You try getting a player to commit the next 2/3 years of his career to a side who are probably going to be in the third division after this season, it’s not an easy sell. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A certain chairman would be apoplectic if we managed to beat Boro to the signing on the basis of wages! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
