It’s not even crowding the middle he can play closer to goal and not get in the way of Darwin and tbf Darwin looked comfortable enough out on the left at times in the 1st half when Luis went more central, he’s playing as an out and out winger pretty much and nikkas just doubling him up :snoop: I think the 4231 shift is coming, Darwin up top and Bobby, Momo and Luis behind him has potential.
And folks double him Cuzz nobody else is seeing a threat ( relative to mo) at least with mane teams would also focus on him to. Ohh well .that proposed starting line up looks hella slow though lol

They was doing it last season when we had Sadio :francis:


It’s blindingly obvious that there needs to be a change with what we are doing in midfield cause it’s not working :manny:

So are Tottenham playing like this because Fulham are more counter attacking than them, or are they finally acting like they have better players?

Yeah too many injuries and a couple of young bucks that show promise but not ready in Jones and Elliot.

Let's see how melo does and I still think Trent should be moved up to the middle lol

But wasn’t Liverpools midfield mainly for pressing and winning the ball back, till you wanted to act fancy and play Thiago there?
Lol wat we when Thiago plays he adds a new element that was not there..and it's not like last year his addition hurt us, another cl final another 1 point 2nd place couple of cups. The evolution of the midfield has nothing to do with the regress of the team. Yes we need more pressing no doubt but the addition of Thiago helps when we cant break teams down and can't control the middle.

Too many injury prone players in that one key area sadly

and mane

should have paid up

Nah it was a good time for Mane to move on. He came alive towards the end of the season but was :flabbynsick: for large parts. We got him out the door before the inevitable decline... Dude's 30

Let him get one last payday and stat pad at Bayern :myman:


Plus Diaz hit the ground running and continues to improve
