once Jesus returns.

Now while I consider Crooks to be a know nothing gob sh1te of the highest order (see also Tony Cascarino) whom I only read for comedic effect, thinking about this is sort of interesting:

Rambo
Ben Tequila Gabi Ziny
Saka Partey Ode Martinelli
Jesus Eddie

Hmmmm :rubchin:

He just put Romero in his team of the week. Romero should have had a straight red. They are desperate to validate him as decent player, all I see is a massive liability.

NB: He also put Partey in, after one his poorer games. Although that burst of speed to waltz up to Anthony and nick the ball was probably worth his admission alone

was thinking the same. Crooks is just awful though so I am not surprised.

Yeah but we'd have two up front. One of them a proper no. 9.

Think how happy red would be. :shrug:

Yeah, let's take what is quite possibly, one of the most tactically advanced formations and teams we have ever seen that is blowing away the rest of the premier league and the suggestion is to throw all that work and progression in the bin and turn out in a few weeks with a 4-4-bloody-2.

We may as well ask Mikel to leave and bring Sam Allardyce in for the rest of the season and have POMO as our moto.

Give me fcuking strength.

I can't help but feel that you are overreacting slightly here, Marv.

First of all, it's not entirely serious. Second of all, what formation you play is only a very small part of tactics, you know.

I think you need to chill.

I loved the 4-2-4 at the end of '92. When Limpar and Merse switched flanks with IWWW and Kevin Campbell up top.

Well said, W! Crucial factors which are all too often criminally ignored, neglected around these parts.

So you wouldn't go with Smith Rowe as a false nine then, red? :retreatstoasafedistance:

These young whippersnappers around here, eh red? Disrespecting the no. 9 with their fancy Dan tactics nonsense.

Jesus is actually part no. 9 so it would be like having more than one of them! :love:

I actually don't care about the 44 bit, I just like the idea of the 2 bit. Arteta can p1ss about the with the tactics all he wants with Eddie and Jesus up front imo.

MA did that for the last 2-3 mins vs Sperz. ESR came on for Eddie and played there. No reason why he can't. He's used to playing in MF so can drop deep as MA likes. He can press. And he can create and score goals.

Really happy for Trossard - astute signing and to have a hand in the late winner on debut is Divine. But I hope we don't stop ESR's development. As MA said when he was injured, when ESR is fit and playing at his best, he's hard to leave out of the team.

England front 3 should be Saka, Eddie and Smith Rowe imo.
