4-4-2 simply doesn't work with our players.

    All of these posts just highlight the problem - Ritchie, Fraser and Hayden are Champ level so putting all three on the pitch in a half-cocked 442 is ending in defeat.

    Just list the players in order of ability, then work out how the formation works from there. Currently Howe is clinging to 4-4-2 and shoe-horning the better players in to fit the formation.

    Please understand this was an attempt at a Munson lol.

    If it was mine I would have put Gayle in instead of Joelinton :emoticon-0140-rofl::emoticon-0140-rofl::emoticon-0140-rofl:

    If your going 4-4-2 which I think is bonkers then we can’t use ASM and Miggy because niether can cross for ****.

    So Fraser would come in Left side and Ritchie goes back to right side where he has played most of his career.

    You nullify Joe.

    Shelvey and a.n.other get dominated in midfield and we just continue down this road of ****ness.

    For someone spouting tactics and stats. I will say this one last time.

    Ryan Fraser is a RIGHT WINGER. he has always been a RIGHT WINGER and in the future he will be known as a retired RIGHT WINGER. He does not play LEFT WING.

    He’s a left winger mate. Honestly: do your research. He’s never played on the right all his career.

    If we're honest so is Dubz, Darlow, Woodman, Manq, Krafth, Fed, Lascelles, Clark, Schar, Dummett, Lewis, Shelvey, Willock, Longstaff S, Hendrick, Gayle, Joelinton.

    I'm Scottish - he's a ****ing right winger man, hence the reason Ritchie never got a game.

    Nope his favoured position is left winger. By his own words. And where he was mostly deployed by Bournemouth under Howe surprisingly.

    Let's all just take a moment and agree that our team should simply set up and play like this

    ----------------Dubz------------

    -----------------------------------

    ----------------------------ASM

    ---------------Wilson------------

    Let's be blunt. We may as well its been them 3 v the league for 2 seasons now.

    Ha ha: mate honestly during his only good season at Bournemouth where he setup lots of goals for Wilson he was deployed in the Left wing position.

    I am not ****ting you.
