Ive calmed down from the nasty stress that was furiously building up in me today, caused by our beloved Spurs. The 2-2 helped. But, we all know that was a shit result really, and the worst game of the season performance wise.
Whats up with the tinkering?
For me it should be, when fit:
.......................................Lloris
Walker.....................Fazio............Jan...................Rose
.......................Bentaleb................Mason
.....................................Dembele
............Chadli..................................Eriksen
...................................Kane
It worked very well, with Lamela in there, but Chadli is the better player.
Regarding Rose and Mason, we have Davies and Stambouli who should be breathing down their necks, and introduced the moment the other two start costing the team.
Mason has been poor for the last few games....yet because Stambouli has been exiled for no reason, we are not even in a position where he can slip straight in.
Why has Poch suddenly dismantled everything to give Townsend his place back out of the blue?
Lamela and Townsend together is a no go.
A Plan B, for me would be to use some wing play and two up top. A classic 442.
.......................................Lloris
Walker.....................Fazio............Jan...................Rose
Lamela................Bentaleb........Mason.................Chadli
....................................Soldado
.................................................Kane
Im not sure whats going on at the minute, but now is really not the time for experimenting.
Of course there will be variations of all sorts, but IMO we need a fixed 11, and an actual game changing back up plan for mid game, that is not based on guess work and a mish mash of players doing whatever they want.
Thoughts???
P.S, any hysterics about this meaning I want Poch out you need'nt bother joining the thread.
