Yeah, it is all about systems. How does Adarma fit the system? In the Prem he did not. Under Martin it worked. I don't mind Saka at left back at all. I expect Rice will be very defensive anyway. I do have an issue with what the midfield will look like. It should be: Rice Mainoo Bellingham Tony Kane It will actually be: Rice Mainoo Foden Bellingham (getting in each other's way) Kane
In fairness he scored 29 goals in 9 less games playing for a worse side when he did play up front. but I do agree with your point. Any player will say anything to stay in their preferred position!
So many players suspended for the semi final should their country get there. ****ing ridiculous that the card count doesn't get reset at the QF stage IMO. Or the threshold is 3 yellows rather than 2.
