    Think you may be right there. Remember Wolves.

    I am liking the look of this offensively. Be worried anout the back though. We would have some seriously unhappy full backs there too.

    If Guido does a three man defence it will be a dabble for certain games .Britton would be perfect for it too .
    If we need a box to box guy I think Cork would fit the bill .

    We don't do 3 in defence, It's silly to expect our defenders who have been fairly good to adapt to 3 at the back now. Football is an easy game if you do it right. Keep playing 4 at the back and keep playing the way we are with the addition of a new striker.......New Midfielders,defenders,keepers and whatever should not be our concern until the season is over.

    I haven't a clue what any of this means. <sorry> I was responding to a post that stated you were unhappy with everything. If you read my post I pointed out that wasn't quite true.

    As for Guidolin it looks as if he likes to mix things up a little and I like that because it wrong-foots opposing managers.

    I'd be more than happy with these signings and Gomis leaving.

    The fact that Guido wanted Paloschi and has gone and got him looks like a sign that Jenkins has realised his mistakes in transfers etc and is learning from them.

    Gayle I'd be happy with too. Young, British and a point to prove.

    We are all excited because he can't be worse than the offside donkey we currently have.

    Cork is our closest box to box CM.

    3 in defence? We may in future. As far as I can see, Guidolin comes to the Club as the most experienced manager in our Clubs history. He probably has more nous and experience than all our other managers combined, so the main thing to expect is the unexpected! It's likely we won't be stuck in a rigid system. This is what 4-4-2 Magazine had to say about him:

    Tactical nous
    “Guidolin is renowned as a studious, hyper-tactical mind who favours an attack-minded approach. He’s never been rigid to one single system and has overhauled his entire formation mid-season in the past. His stress may have been linked to this tendency to overanalyse. Additionally, he possesses the vital skill of being able to adapt the system to the players at his disposal.

    The former midfielder isn't averse to using three at the back, which he went into detail on after spending four days as a guest of Pep Guardiola at Bayern Munich’s training ground last year: “I was pleased to discuss [Arturo] Vidal operating behind [Mario] Götze in a 3-6-1 system [with Pep]. That formation is the direction that the great teams are favouring with three defenders and only one pure centre-back. There are then many players making the midfield dense and lacking points of reference.”
