Yes, and it's worsened by the fact we let Oduwa go out on loan. Truley baffeling.
Absolutely. That's the icing on the shitcake right there. Makes entirely no sense whatsoever.
What's the plan if Chadli goes down for an extended stretch? Playing Dembele at CAM and Eriksen at LW? And then if we have an important midweek game, such as in Europe? We're asking Eriksen to play back-to-back games at winger in a high intensity full press system, and then Dembele again or the incredibly poorly pigeonholed at AM Paulinho? I get Eriksen's run some incredible average distances this season so far, that's still a whole different level of physical demands, especially when you factor in jet lag effect on hormonal axes when traveling to play in Europe.
My hope is that it means Poch plans to integrate Onomah far more intensively. And of course, another perk to Oduwa departing is the possibility of Azzaoui being promoted to the U-21's. I think he's fearless enough that he could at least put in a shift.
