With our winger's especially if we sign Nketiah it is time to put round pegs in round holes play Elanga as a left winger and Hudson Odoi on the right
Because everybody and his dog now know their modus operandi cut inside and shoot that's ok if we are going to play a false 9 but with Nketiah Awoniyi and Wood this is not the case maybe we give Sosa and Jota a run out after an hour against Wolves next week
Good start lads but the real work starts against Liverpool and I think we can do well.

Anyone else think Nuno is planning to play 3 at the back against the bigger teams? Might be worth a try.

Apparently the Deal for Eddie Nketiah is off.
Fresh bid of 35million for Gimenez.

It's getting to the silly season part of the transfer window. Agents and clubs playing brinkmanship with how much money to accept/ pay. Anything could happen.
GiveMeSport are now reporting we are in for Arnaut Danjuma.
Who blinks first on fees and wages decides where players go.

Hope we can pull that one off, Ripley. Rather have him than Nketiah out of the two.

If we end up with danjuma out of this I'm supporting pies would be one of the worst signings since carvahalo.

Definitely Polly.
Hopefully ?.

Cyclist, I’ve been saying 3 centre backs all season. Nunos certainly practised the system in pre season. It’s an attacking option in the fast counter attack sense. Look at Liverpools first goal today. Brentford corner then 3 passes later it’s One nil to the Scousers. I think Murillo would thrive in this system and there would be cover for his lack of height.
But, in Nuno we trust.
The only trouble is shoe horning our hugely talented full compliment of midfielders in there?

Yep Stokey, 3 at the back suits Murillo in terms of support in the air, but also he is brilliant at picking a quick pass and setting up a counter-attack. Three at the back makes so much sense against teams like Liverpool, who will inevitably dominate possession whatever formation we play.

Leaves you short in midfield though cyclist, unless you play a false number nine.
