what happened to Grimaldo and all those full back rumours ? are we waiting for dropping out of top four :( . I think we should bring in new faces just to boost morale , the least
At least we've not got long to wait to get things back on track. Back to the formation that served us well at the start of the season.
Bravo
Sagna
Otamendi
Stones
Clichy
Fernandinho
Silva
De Bruyne
Nolito
Sterling
Aguero
Hopefully Pep will remember that his best formation was the first one.
The manager obviously believes Kolorov is a better bet at present. As I have said before I don't expect too many of our Academy to makeIs giving Tosin some EPL experience a better option than persevering with Kolarov?
And why have we sent out young fullbacks out on loan? Is that a ploy by Pep to put pressure on buying fullbacks in this window?
The opposition sussed out very quickly how to deal with it which is basically to get players and ball quickly into the spaces vacated by the full backs and put us under pressureI do like the look of this team I must admit and for some reason, it always feels right with Nolito in there.
What's actually happened to the full backs tucking into midfield which Pep used to great effect at the start of the season? He seems to have binned this tactic for some reason which I can't really understand???
So you were wrong then?Said weeks ago we will be sixth by new year,it's been absolutely shocking the last couple of month.
It's absolutely criminal we went in to the season with only two centre backs and let Mangala go.3-5-2 is okay as long as Kolarov isn't one of those 3. Kompany aside, we basically have 2 centre backs so it's always likely he will feature be it 3 or 4.
If Kompany was fit I'd feel much more confident with him alongside John and Otamendi. Use Sane and Sterling as wing backs. Silva/De Bruyne/ Fernandinho centrally with Sergio and Gabriel up top.
That for me will be our strongest formation/team but Kompany and persistent injuries just fuck the entire thing over.
We desperately need a CB and 2 new full backs.
Its Burnley! We are aiming to win the Champions League, surely we can't be worried about a team that hasn't won away all season???.......
