I'm a little confused by this one in terms of midfield make up.

CDM - Neil
8 - Diarra / Sadiki
10 - ELF / Rigg

Would that be right?
 
We aren't just going to sign extra CMs to cover the AFCON tho

I'd still want Miller as an option but I do think Hendersons leadership skills could be vital and he would be down the pecking order
So who've we got during afcon:
Rigg
Enzo
Neil

Triantis?
Browne?

However worth noting that afcon is during the January window so any injury issues can be fixed.
 
This is the first with zero links at all for a while

yeh. although in reality this itself is a link but I see what you mean. Its insane its got until after the medical to become an immediate "here we go".

I reckon its come straight from KLD. chances are the contract is signed and they're waiting on work permit but KLD wanted to cheer fans up post-Bulka
 
Sadiki covers 3 positions. Diarra 2/3 ELF 2/3 Rigg 2

I’d say we sign 2 more midfielders

one more like Hendo experienced and another too develop (unless someone stays in the squad like triantis / Browne)
I could see us keeping an extra one, just don't see us signing another 2 CMs - unless Neil was to leave
 
Or maybe we will pivot to having two "8s" and lose the 4-4-2 defensive shape
Would agree actually, that's how I've thought of it but for some reason still separate the "advanced 8" and one that sits deeper.

In reality we now could have 4 8s in Riggy, le fee, Diarra and Sadiki who can do both and interchange through the game.
