I will wait to be convinced.

Stop setting us up with 2 in CM then Christian. We might have a chance of actually controlling a game then.

FACTS !

I know it’s been said by many on here but just go with Kane & Son up top and drop Kulu into an ACM. Mix it up a bit, it really is that simple.

Cue us paying like the Simpsons parody of "soccer"

Wing to centre, centre to wing... Etc.

Will believe it when I see it.

Didn't people say that's what Conte wanted to but the players didn't get it? Same again then

Just go 433. Drop a centre back and put in another midfielder like Sarr

There you go another option! We’ve actually got quite a few! Trouble is who plays with Romero as I wouldn’t trust Lenglet or Dier without protection

Lost count of how many times myself and others have posted that over the last 4 years. Sad its true.
Playing like that with Kane and Son in your team, absolute disgrace.

 

[Twizzle]

so he's finally worked out that you have to score more goals than the other team ?

you forget we have a young pro in Alifie Devine who can play that role,
lets give the kid a go.

it’s hardly without protection with the three suggested in CM- probably Skipp would be the better anchor in there than the other two

 

[jolsnogross]

The 'protection' talk is exactly why this 5 at the back system needs binning as soon as we have a new man in charge. 3 centre halves, 'protecting' each other. And they 'protect' wing backs. And nobody takes responsibility to win individual duels, while all the 'protectors' stay behind the ball and never break the lines. It's a bloody nonsense, encouraging a team of flakes to sit back, invite teams on to their layers of 'protection', pass sideways and backwards, and bore the pants off everyone.

Attacking footy would be very welcome, but it wont be happening with this interim coaching staff.

It really is. We should be playing 532 and allowing our front two to just attack and not worry about coming back to defend. The old counter style of Kane and Son destroyed teams, with Kane winning the ball in midfield and playing Son in behind the oppo defence. With Conte's stupid system the two wide forwards spend half their time tracking back and pretending to tackle, while the middle 2 CMs get completely overrun. Its ridiculous that the managers can't see what's happening.
I would be happy with Hojbjerg sitting as CDM and letting Kulu sit in centrally next to Skipp. Or to just play Sarr instead with Kulu and Danjuma coming off the bench in attack if we need them.

I agree, have a spare man protecting means they have someone in space. When I played we man marked and were responsible for our player and it was still possible to cover for your team mates if they got beaten.

If only he had some kind of control over that.
