Thread: I know everyone looks good on YouTube but Timber can pick out a pass.....

  1. #1

    I know everyone looks good on YouTube but Timber can pick out a pass.....

    If was fit, could Timber play DM, with Cala inverting to make a double pivot?

    You'd not only have 2 pwoppa CHs covering the back-line, but either could drop back into a conventional LB spot when required.

    And given BW was originally an Eng intl CH, we'd be starting with 5 CHs which GG would have loved.

    We have Partey, Jorginho and Merino, plus Rice should we move him back. Why the **** would put a centre back there?

    It's a bit like the idea that Tent Alexander Arnold can play centre mid...

    The reason these players work are because they are NOT playing in centre mid but they invert and overload it at the right times from their main position. If Trent could play centre mid, he would be a centre mid. If Timer could play centre mid, he would play centre mid...

    This young kid, Skelly something or other.... he looked pretty tidy in pre season, if a bit showy.

    I think it is also partly because he is ****ing **** at full back. Same with Zinchenko. If they were actually decent full backs you wouldn't feel the need to create a role for them.

    Nobody ever asked Nigel Winterburn to invert

    Selley mate, Ian Selley. Gonna be pushing David Hillier for a place in centre mid for sure. Especially when Hillier picks up a suitcase he shouldn't at the airport...

    I was talking about now, when we have an injured Merino for a while, and Dec will probably be playing further forward. So it was to replace one of Jorgy/TP5.

    Nah. It'll be Steve Morrow that makes the biggest impact in MF for us. {On his shoulder.}

    But we have no Tierney, Tomiyasu, Zinchenko or Calafiori at the moment either - would weaken one part of the team to not necessarily strengthen another
