Makes sense. He likes to attack the back line and shoot. Can't have him, Mo, and Trent on the same side. He will do well filling the spaces left by Jota and Nunez. Mac Allister seems more of an orchestrator. He is probably better suited to a more conservative role in attack.
looks comfortable in all attacking roles wide and midfield.. interesting to see how we use him, Jones and Mac Allister in the same team - if we ever do? Plus how the new signings do in breaking down the attacks and support our defenders and transition to attack ].
I suppose the challenge is how quickly they adapt to our midfield press, demands of Prem and gel with others. It took Fabinho, Thiago and a lot of our new signings a few months to get on board. that is why I think it foolish for us to not only let our out of contract midfielders, but then to add Hendo and Fabinho to the sales column.
So far looks very good. And could be a great signing = time will tell
I am actually quite excited about these two young midfield signings - but we do need to be patient and give them a chance.
I can see one of them start vs Chelsea - and us playing Jones & Bacjectic being the other 2.. Maybe even Thiago if he is fit to start.
or do any of you see us trying new formation with us playing more of 4-2-3-1 or even 3-4-3 ?
