Rodri and Ederson both need dropped, but I think Rodri has to be selected as we have no other option.
——————Haaland
Grealish——————————KDB

———————Rodri
Gomez—-Laporte—Dias—Walker
——————-Ortega
I’d love to see Rodri player a tiny bit further forward, this would mean playing Philips as well and as you say, Walker at RB. I think this would benefit Kevin too and get him closer to HaalandWe don't need to drop Rodri. We need to stop making him babysit an 18-year-old full-back. Even worse, he's having to constantly transition between playing as a lone 6 (his best position) and playing in a double pivot with Lewis.
It's overcomplication to a completely insane degree and nobody should be surprised that the players can't handle it.
The misty eyed, Academy devotees won't like that.Sorry but can’t see any benefit in playing Lewis. Seriously, what immense contribution to our attack or defence does he do. No offence to the lad but at the moment, his job is basically to run around the centre circle and give 5 yard passes to Rodri. A waste of a place at the moment. Let’s please get back to basic fast attacks and a proper defence.
