I like 2 up front, and I'm comparatively a footballing newbie.I don't think Poch makes the distinction between home and away. And why should he? What I'm trying to say in a cowardly way, is I like 2 up front. But I'm a footballing dinosaur.
It will be the next 'big thing'. I think we'll end the season playing 4-4-2.I like 2 up front, and I'm comparatively a footballing newbie.
I hope you're right, and I think you are.It will be the next 'big thing'. I think we'll end the season playing 4-4-2.
Edit: or 2 up front at least.
Just remember that a lot of players looked good against Milan, and then didn't have a great game against Everton. I get what you're saying, but I just don't see him coming in to take anyone's spot just yet. Give it a couple more games to see how everyone's doing, and then make a switch if need be.Wouldn't you say his impressive performance against both Inter Milan and now Everton shows that it would be justified to actually start Janssen. Inter Milan was pre-season yes but an impressive pre-season was what saw Mason get a chance in the Spurs team a few years back.

I agree that they are similar types of players, but both have the ability to help push the ball up the field when needed and neither really did. I think that it just goes to show that Poch still doesn't have a great option that he feels 100% comfortable with in that position outside of Moussa.It's not so much that I'm saying Janssen should be our leading man after two decent performances but rather that Dier and Wanyama as the double pivot doesn't work.
It was my fear ahead of the season and it's been proven correct - they are just too similar.
I don't agree with Alli or Eriksen in that role, as I just don't think that it's suited to their particular skills or style of play. But I just think that it goes to show that Poch still doesn't have that player that he's 100% comfortable with at the moment outside of Moussa for that role. Mason is just too shaky at times, Bentaleb is obviously falling lower and lower in the pecking order, and some of the youth players are maybe just too big of a risk for him.You are then left with the choice of which of the two are dropped and who plays alongside them. I think Alli or Eriksen in there would both work well. And it's pretty hard to justify keeping Janssen out of the team after the way he changed the game.
Or 5-3-2, it wouldn't be too different from how we set up anywayI wonder if Poch would ever play a variation on a 4-1-3-2.

don't worry - these things are cyclical - in a years time you'll be a long range visionary with seer like qualities in determining the direction professional football should be taking.I don't think Poch makes the distinction between home and away.

This x1000I'd give Kane a week off and play Vinny J
No he didn't you liarIt's where he played for Mk Dons
Lampard was never a 'depper' player - what the fuck are you talking about?Because Dier and Dembele are better in central midfield and he is too good to leave out so trying to make him more of an attacking midfielder when in my opinion he will always be suited as a Lampard/Gerrard deeper midfielder.
No he didn't you liar
No he would play central midfield alongside Essien with Makelele behind them. Both played central midfield with Makelele the defensive midfield. Chelseas formation was nothing like ours, so you're wrong, again. Don't worry though, can't always be that perfect poster Arcy boy.Lampard was never a 'depper' player - what the fuck are you talking about?
He played exactly where Alli did last season
