Considering Laporte can shift to left back and Stones can shift to right back, i'm surprised we haven't tried to overloading by playing 3 at the back. For once, we actually have players to do it.

Same here. It would make us stronger and drop the underperforming attackers.

We have the pefect back three set up,add Walker to the equation.We then can utilise Cancelo and Mendy in their best roles,maybe even bring Angelino back.

Strange part is Pep seems to prefer Cancelo/Mendy pairing for attacking and Walker/Cancelo pairing for defending.

Always thought wouldn't it be better if we played Cancelo/(defensive LB) and Walker/Mendy - one defensive, one attacking.

Laporte is going to have to bring his absolute A game to shift this current reincarnation of Stones.I think you do him an injustice with your comment.

this is the healthy competition we need. Stones and Dias are the main pair right now and deservedly so based on performance. Laporte has to work his bollocks off and wait for his chance and when it comes he has to take it.

Yep. And neither Stones nor Dias can afford to let their levels drop for a second, with Laporte waiting in the wings.

Yep, instead of rushing into it like we did with Lyon, why not actually train it and try and use it. Given we are struggling a lot up front, having the extra man would help.
 
Classy as always, couldn't have done much more than that to get back in the team.
 
Good performance, can't be overly critical for their goal, he got back in front of his man it was just a brilliant header. His passing gives us an extra edge, dias doesn't pass forward as well as stones or laporte at least not yet. It's fantastic to actually have options at the back, rather than who is the lesser liability at the moment. they'll all get their chance, defenders need the competition as much as strikers/midfielders and its showing.

Watch it back Lacezette was laporte's man he was on the wrong side of him standing behind him when he should of moved in front he had enough time to react to the cross being delivered

Yeah but the main fault was his team mates in front of him. Dias and Dinho covering the same zone and Zinchenko a bit suspect as well. If Laporte would've gone in front of Lacazette they could easily cross to the back post.
