It's Quiet 17 - Glory Thread

Never seen Leao play on the right, where he would be needed here, sadly.

I'd like to discuss the fit of Felix, as Tolm suggest was an realistic option. Not pacey but damn technically gifted beyond word.

That's a good point I had not considered .

Felix works but you would lack any sort of natural width most probably unless you went to a formation with wing backs and then he would be perfect.

Forden/grealish/mahrez all cut in.

Didn't some report recently say he'd only go abroad if moving. This report was around March i think. Perhaps situations change. Thenumber

Yep that is my take on it but a chance to stay in the Premier will be still appealing for Raz.Thenumber1blue has mentioned that Liverpool has burnt their bridges

Cucurella and Cancelo at Full back can provide the width if you wanna play inverted winger(s) and overload one side.

The only club I could see him considering in the Premier league would be Chelsea- they are the only ones who give him a realistic chance of winning and playing. Liverpool I can't see at all tbh- he's a London lad not a scouser also

True... But there aren't many wingers that can widen and speed it up like Raz in today market, sadly

I just think we have heavy numbers in midfield and wide positions for us to switch to a formation with wing backs and ultimately lose a position to a additional centre half- where we have the least numbers with fullbacks

I meant in a back four, i wouldnt play a three. Sit the LCM slightly deeper in a 4231. wingers cut in, full backs overlap etc

 

[smiles]

100% but just throwing the name in bcuz ultimately he would be the perfect replacement- a swap deal too far maybe?

Good shout

I guess if u play two sitters you will probably be okay- he currently usually only wants one of the fullbacks bombing on tho hence the cancelo/walker partnership with just Rodri sitting. Cucarella is quick but I'm not sure he's quite got the recovery pace of walker. It's definitely an interesting one

I still think we’ll play pretty much the same as we always do.

We've switched into a 4231 for the last 5 games or so, wouldnt be suprised to see a double pivot implemented with Silva being the transisition player and KDB pushed right off Haaland.

All I’ve seen is Bernardo drop deep sometimes to help with the build up. Theres no way I’d describe him playing as a 6 though.

4-1-2-3.

Ultimately, Pepball has 5 defenders and 5 attackers that rotate constantly.

no wouldnt count as a 6 either. Gundo/Rodri were defo used a CM pair though over a 3 last few games.

Nah, same applies. Gundog wasn’t a 6, he was a pseudo 10 against Villa!

If we are after a right sided forward/winger, what are everyone's thought's on Bowen from West Ham. Fantastic player imo.

 

[skyblue_brother]

Any one think sterling goes back if mane leaves ?

I doubt it as I don’t see Sterling taking a pay cut and I don’t see dippers paying £300k per week, tbh I doubt he’ll move this summer as I don’t think he’ll find a club willing to meet his ambition and salary expectations but if he does id Rather see him move overseas as I think he’s a top player…..

Decent shout!

Just go and take salah for 3 seasons from the dippers.

We already have one. Palmer!
