One good thing about Tanganga is that he can do a job at right back. Looked at through that lens - and considering the ridiculously low price - perhaps there’d still be two more centre halves coming.

I would accept him more as a back up RB than I would a CB tbh

I'm not a huge fan of him as a RB but as a back up to Hume (and potentially Huggins) then it makes more sense

If he's one of the 1st 4 choice CBs I'd be worried tho

We played that out of possession, in possession it was usually a 433

I don't think we will change it this year tbh

There will be games where we might tweak it slightly

Still played with two striker and two wide mids

@U_D_Almeria
Luis Suárez is mulling over his options
The club is considering several offers for the Colombian
Sporting de Portugal and Sunderland have already shown interest, but he’s also catching eyes in Italy, Turkey, and Saudi Arabia

I wonder if his mobility would mean he’s probably about as likely to succeed at pl level as Ballard tbh, but I wouldn’t see him as anything other than cover. Fully expect us not to do ‘two players per position’ anyway as it’s a bit noddy. We’ll go for defenders that can cover multiple spots plus a small handful of stick-on starters. Maybe Tanganga coming in allows us to get Seelt a season loan. For the price it’s good with me.

Tanganga is bad. I understand the fee is low and he can play multiple positions (poorly), but he's a midtable Championship player imo. His speed gets him out of a lot of trouble in the Championship, that won't happen in the PL.

It's an Ipswich and Luton signing imo and I can't see us going for him as we have squad players at the minute

It performed well as a defensive formation for us, and was our second most used formation no way it gets totally disregarded as an option

Prem is different mate, we will still likely use a 433 where it becomes a 442 out of possession

what happened to giving new players a chance? and not writing them off?

one bad club doesnt equal one bad player everywhere they go, have some faith,

there is a reason why we are after them, RLB/KS/SH see something in them, trust that

We might not be after Tanganga though. I think its lazy journalism and perhaps he was on our championship list

I remember accusing them of being skunks the way they were going on.. anti Sunderland. Then one of their journalists who posts on here came on to swear they were reporting fairly and well balanced. Agreed to disagree based on opinions.

Edit: need to clarify, called them out on here, and one of them posts on here, well, did at the time

They’re on the wrong side of history the way they’ve gone on about KLD and Speakman. Not that they’ll admit it.

I am not saying we will play it with two wingers as such but RLB clearly liked playing the two banks of 4 with two options to counter attack, he will need a squad of players to be able to at least give us options to play two forwards together even if it was just when we are chasing games, I think we need 2 more forwards probably one striker and one bit like Lauriente

Pace is always handy, especially at the back. Ask Mepham about Wembley
