toontownman Posted January 24, 2020 Share Posted January 24, 2020 I'd like to see this team after this window: Dubravka Shar Lascelles Lejuene Lazaro Rose M.Longstaff Bentaleb Almiron Saint Max Bowen Behave yourself. Piatek upfront, Bowen on the bench. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toon No9 Posted January 24, 2020 Share Posted January 24, 2020 I'd like to see this team after this window: Dubravka Shar Lascelles Lejuene Lazaro Rose M.Longstaff Bentaleb Almiron Saint Max Bowen Behave yourself. Piatek upfront, Bowen on the bench. Piatek would be great! But I think he will end up elsewhere. Would love us to play 4-2-3-1 with a front 4 of: Bowen Almiron Saint Max Piatek But it depends on if Lazaro can play RB. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted January 24, 2020 Share Posted January 24, 2020 To push on we need at some point need to have one less defender and one more attacker in the first XI. To do this we had to strengthen the central midfield and right wing, we may well have done this. Based on current fit personnel, a more cohesive attacking team would be: Dubravka Hayden Fernandez Lejeune Clark Lazaro Bentaleb Longstaff ASM Almiron Joelinton Clearly we need Manquillo back soon and a new left back but it’s something to think about.

Agree with that. Either a 4-4-1-1 or a 4-2-3-1(wich I prefer). Think it's something to do for next season. With a full preseason for everyone to get used to it.

Mr Logic Posted January 24, 2020 Share Posted January 24, 2020 Quite disturbed by the Dennis Wise rating on these two new guys, I know highlight reels show you the good bits and miss out all the Atsu/Dummet moments but they've got some skills between them. Not sure where they all fit in but Lazaro has a good defensive sense and should make a good RWB. VALENTINO LAZARO ✭ RED BULL SALZBURG ✭ THE NEXT SADIO MANE ✭ Skills & Goals ✭ They both seem to have a good eye for a pass so are probably going to be bewildered by the lack of movement in front of them. ► Nabil Bentaleb #10 ◄ ★ Goals, Skills, Assists ★ 2016/17 ᴴᴰ Not sure how we fit everyone in the current system and can't help but wonder if Rafa was forced to pick a team from this current crop just what he would do, because if Bruce finds a way I'll have to begrudgingly give him a small measure of respect. We all know Bruce doesn't do tactics so its probably all academical. Everyone fit hypothetical... Dubravka Schar Lascelles Lejuene Lazaro Willems Hayden Bentaleb Almiron ASM JoeL Why Hayden? Of the four trad. CM's I think he is the best reading the game defensively. Why JoeL, who else have we got? With Almiron and ASM closer maybe there's marked improvement.

That's the best 11 I envisioned with everyone fit also Really hope that's what Bruce has in mind. However I can't help but think he will play Shelvey in there instead of Hayden, which would be unacceptable. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJ_NUFC Posted January 24, 2020 Share Posted January 24, 2020 And Dummett's definitely here till he retired no matter what.

TRon Posted January 25, 2020 Share Posted January 25, 2020 I’d expect Bruce will drop Joelinton and go for a 5-5 formation Quite a stretch since Bruce only plays Joelinton on account of he's the next 6ft plus striker after Carroll who is never fit.
