It's Quiet 17 - Glory Thread

Laporte played LB v Wolves, so Atleast Ake or Laporte would be make us defensively solid but does put a lot of pressure on Rico the other side to slot into midfield and create.

Maybe in the summer we’ll actually sign a proper left back.
 
pep was serious when he said he wants midfielders in every position

Yeah at the end of the day, he will not worry about LB position at all.

He can just put any player in that position with the way our tactic works, we really don't need traditional LB to play the role.

With Rico Lewis as inverted RB and Walker as a RB.. and Gomez as an inverted LB it's logical that we will sign "Walker Type" LB soon..
Someone like "Theo Hernandez" or something like that..

This will help Grealish as he always moans about having LB at Aston Villa who would support him and free some space..

Let's see... But what about current season ?

Windows still open,either way though sounds like Cancelo wasn’t going to play so better he doesn’t Play away from the squad.
Where is JWE at the moment?
 
Phillips is better than the Fernandiho of last season by quite a bit. Gomez eas never intended as our left back , Cucerella was, when that fell through se didnt panic buy.
Maybe we dont have somebody lined up , but would be surprised if we don’t, anyway there will be a long term plan thats good enough for me.
Have to disagree on Phillips.

Fernandinho’s legs had clearly gone last season, but Fernandinho with a zimmer frame would still be far quicker at getting around the pitch than Phillips.

Ultimately we don’t know how bad Cancelo’s behaviour has been and how much of a distraction he’s proved to be over the past few months. We may just be glad to get rid and if we get good money for him in the summer, then it may be the right move. But if you deplete the squad by buying players who aren’t good enough, even if they’re only meant to be back-ups, then you leave yourself open to bigger problems when players lose their form or spit their dummy out, and that’s essentially what’s happened this season.
 
We’re basically playing 3 atb now anyway in build up so the lb can ba a LCB of which we have 2.
