I have literally no idea what a false 9 is. I suspect it means nothing.

:nod: Then he would've been for it.

But midfielders, we can find those. I want more. Play Havertz up front :-)

I'd like to see Martinelli up top, which apparently he's going to do for Brazil.

Henry is two WORLD-CLASS players in one whereas young Havertz .. :-\


So far anyway.

I'd like to see Thomas Partey back in our midfield. Then I don't care who plays up front :-)

Havertz is awful. That is why I want to stick him up front where he will do less damage :-)

It's essentially a striker that doesn't score enough goals, German or otherwise. Notable exceptions, of course.
