Formation for next season 4-2-3-1?

[bluebell]

Nunez up front, who plays behind him, if Salah's on the Right and Dias on the Left?
If Fabs and Thiago are unavailable then it's Hendo and Naby?
If Nunez is injured, then is it Jota upfront? Where does the likes of Jones, Elliott and Fabio fit into this formation.
Personally find this hard to square up with our squad

 

[Modo]

Midfield: Jones
Attacking midfield: Carvalho
Right wing: Elliott
Left wing: Jota, Diaz

 

[Frogfish]

Never heard of this Dias you're continually on about. Now Diaz is a shoe-in on the left.

We signed City's centre back to play left wing. Its all part of the master plan

Ah, it was only ONE letter he got wrong. Don't be so strict, Fogfish.

It's not a typo - he's never got it right! Add that to Thiago (Thaigo) and Firmino (Firminio) etc.

What's your name, Amber Heard? Do you want to be sued for defamation? Naby's name I get wrong, but everyone else I've got right other than dias and at some point I'll be writing Nunes.

Haven't we don't this thread very recently? It feels very groundhog day.

Yes, “evolution or revolution” thread was partly about that.

Darren Bent has claimed that although you can’t directly replace Sadio Mane after he joined Bayern Munich from Liverpool recently, ‘forgotten man’ Diogo Jota and the Reds’ other attacking options are more than capable of stepping up and providing the firepower in place of the Senegal international.
The former Southampton man made the switch to the Bundesliga giants on Wednesday and brought to an end a stunning six-years on Merseyside.
He won every major trophy possible at Anfield, but it’s now time for Jurgen Klopp’s side to hunt down silverware without the 30-year-old’s regular contributions.
“I don’t think you can replace him straight away just man-for-man because I think he’s too good,”he told talkSPORT (via Sport Bible).
“But if (Luis) Diaz gets his numbers up in terms of goals and assists and Jota’s scoring goals… He was kind of the forgotten man towards the end of last season, but he stepped in and was brilliant.
“Diaz, (Roberto) Firmino’s still there and obviously (Mohamed) Salah speaks for himself, so they’ve still got so many different options in that front three area.”

The one problem with 4-2-3-1 is that we don't have a ready-to-go, genuinely good number 10 - an attacking midfielder who can play behind the striker.

Carvalho and Elliott COULD end up being great there, but would we want to go into a season relying on them in the role. Firmino could certainly play there, but does he still have it? Judging from the latter half of last season, that's a toss up too.

If we had a prime Thomas Muller or Steven Gerrard, 4-2-3-1 would be a no brainer.

The one thing I will say is that we are maybe becoming too predictable in the current 4-3-3.

Could Bobby not be that number 10?

You after so many Bent Signs meme over the years I clean forgotten what Darren Bent looks like. Like, is he even white or black? In my mind his name only evokes a piece of metal

 

[Markeh]

There’s a list of former pros i tend to pay no attention to, Darren Bent is on it.

Also Robbie savage, Clinton Morrison, Tim Sherwood, Rio Ferdinand and your man that’s still young enough to play but is on talk sport now because his career sank like a stone. Plus many more.

I like you Red, but who the fuck, gives a fuck, about what Darren Bent thinks?

I'd much rather wait for Ja Rule's opinion on the matter

As soon as some fucker says ‘no offence’ ya know they gonna be offensive!
WTF is the need..hey ho..takes all sorts I guess

 

[mom]

Why change the formation we’ve had so much success with? Why buy players who make the rest of the squad accommodate them? I think you’ll find the new chaps have to play our style and system

Well I think the obvious problem was always gonna be replacing Salah, cos wingers who score 25 a season are extremely rare.

It's not a particularly sustainable system because of that.

So instead you buy a central striker to try to replace the goals. But then that might require a tweak to the style...

It basically all follows from that I guess.

This Country was one of the highlights of my lockdown. Kept me entertained for a few days, so it’s a compliment.

Gotta disagree there for once. It's possible to differ, even sharply, from someone but do it in a polite way. Saying "no offence" shows that's what you're trying to do. I actually wish more people would - provided they mean it of course!

 

[My_Blood_Bleeds_Red]

Actually i realized it was a distasteful joke/comment even if I meant it lightheartedly. Admittedly It’s not exactly the nicest compliment in the world to be compared to Kerry. It’s kinda worse than being called Amber Heard cos at least she’s got the looks. I’m digging my hole deeper ain’t I ?

Anyway, no offense yeah xx
