How difficult can 442 be.

KDB dislikes this post

I think we do what we’ve done on occasions and have Cancelo pushing up and basically playing LW in possession, allowing Alvarez to move central off the left of the front 3. Which in turn means Foden RW. Back 3 in possession, as usual.

In possession:
……………………..….Haaland………………….……
Cancelo……Alvarez….……KDB……..….Foden
…………………………………………………………………
………………Bernardo….…Rodri……………………
…………………………..….……………………….……..
….…Laporte/Ake…RD/JS/MA…Walker……..

………………………….Ederson………………………..

I'd give him a minimum of 3 weeks break.

Lol

Lol

Lol all you want, but he's basically not had any break from football for nearly 2 years.

Apart from anything else, he needs to go back to Argentina and celebrate their win with his team mates.

If he's back with us in mid January, he has plenty of time/games to contribute.

He's been sat on the bench most weeks for City, he only started games once Haaland picked up an injury. He's young aswell so will be fine, Pep knows what he's doing with him. He'll probably get a week or two off like the rest of those that have been involved in the World Cup.

I absolutely love the guy though, think he'll prove to be an upgrade on Sterling and Jesus once he settles and gets more opportunities with us. He reminds me of Carlos Tevez the way he plays. An absolute terrier without the ball but a real quality finisher with the ball. I'd love to see him, Haaland and Foden as our front 3 at some stage.

I'm sure we will.

Not sure it matters much, he's 22, and still being integrated into City, yet since he arrived he's been involved in 20 games for us (all comps), and scored 7.

Also he's basically not had a break from football for 2 years, so he's doing very well for me, and has looked very good at the WC, once he got into the team.

The finishing of Aguero with the work rate of Tevez! What a player and worth at least 4-5 times what we paid for him

All I will say that is that it will be criminal to put this fantastic world cup winner on the bench. It’s up to Pep to find a position for him in the starting 11 now
