deano Posted September 9, 2020 Share Posted September 9, 2020 Must admit I do prefer a back 4, provides a better balance imo. However we know Monk wants a 3 so he's only going to change if it goes drastically wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. True, but I think the system was used to give us more attacking impetus, but there’s no evidence that it does. As far as defensive solidity goes, maybe that too is inconclusive, but all the players I’ve suggested in that back four are relatively good fits In a back three, that’s not the case. Of course, they might get better with more games, but at the moment, I think the extra forward is more beneficial Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worked wonders in the 5 home games we played after lockdown! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted September 9, 2020 Share Posted September 9, 2020 1 hour ago, 0114 said: He’s a very strong runner. Just watched his goals for Cardiff and it’s surprising how many goals are where he runs in behind a defence, especially for a 6ft 3 player. Doesn’t seem to score a lot of headers. He’s very well rounded. Agree with this. He might not be a '20 goal a season' striker but he is a physical presence, certainly more mobile that what we have been used to up top, can hold the ball up and bring others into play and can be useful in different styles/formations. Would be a really positive addition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ellis Rimmer Posted September 9, 2020 Share Posted September 9, 2020 Always skeptical when they play for a minor nation like Denmark and haven't been capped or not has many like Abdi.

Ahead of him in the National team are Yussuf Poulsen who plays for RB Leipzig and has been strike partner for Timo Werner. Also infront of him is Kaspar Dolberg who is playing for Nice in Ligue 1. He looked as though he may go straight to the top when he came through at Ajax. On top of that you’ve also got Andreas Cornelius who scored 12 in 26 in Serie A last season and Braithwaite, who may not have set the world alight at Middlesbrough is still a Barcelona player.
