Our midfield 3

[philb]

They may look good on paper but my god do they have any clue what their roles are? 😡

With the exception of Etebo to run around aimlesly.

It doesn’t look good on paper though.

We knew they can’t track men/hold position from last season.

Etebo looked exactly the same in the World Cup.

It looked like a samey, gappy midfield.

We need a DM desperately.

Afobe is more isolated than that football team in Thailand

It’s got to be 4-2-3-1, this is fucking crap

Rank basic football if you play a 3 man midfield.

1. Ball winner.
2. Ball player.
3. Runner.

We have 3 runners.

Only 1 is really running too.

Getting that DM will determine our whole season and was the key position to address.

But here we are. Fucking hell

Badou looks atrocious.
Has he touched the ball.

Central Midfield.

The weak link last season and will be the weak link this season.

All 3 are still in our own half when we attack and all 3 can't defend.

Allen is a nothing player, the fact he will play every game hes fit for will be our downfall again. He offers nothing, poor defensively, poor attacking, average passing and gives it away too easily. Hes awful and his name carries him.

Badou clearly wants out and gives no shits as you could see in his play.

Too early for Etebo to make any real decision but he looks decent enough.

Unless we drop Allen. Get a DM and an AM then we will struggle again this season.

Also don't get me started on Erik and Shawcross, both should have been replaced last season.

I hate to say I agree
