Nah But they need to get on with training and ease off on the experimentation after the tour is done. It's.fine to do a lot of thst but the squad is now very much in flux.
Can't say I've ever seen a pre-season that isn't about experimentation - it's what it's for. Also, if we ever need to see the difference between a team giving its all and one that's not so fired up we only have to think back to last season after the title was won.
Tbf, much as this playing a full back at CB when we're trying to break the deadlock or desperately need an equaliser thing is driving me nuts, now really is the time to experiment. Today we confirmed that Rio should be in the 1st team squad. We saw that even in desperate times, Tsimi, especially, is garbage at CB. And I thought Morton was not bad at all. No concerns at all, but we need to pick a back 4 and start getting them used to each other now, but here's a wild card - let's try Frimpong at #6.
It's all about fitness, always as been and always will be. ATM, our players all look like they're running in quick sand whist towing a caravan.
Playing tsimikas at cb wasn’t an experiment it was a needs must. Gomez back home. Vvd and konate doing a half each so we at least have 1 cb during each half. Wasn’t about seeing who could do what, was just about giving every 45 minutes. Also I’m not sure if serious about Frimpong at 6 but the guy is about explosiveness, pace and beating players. Putting him in the 1 place where that isn’t needed would make zero sense
