Maddison is a number 10. :thumbup:

Yeah play him narrow and have the three of them rotate throughout games

He's a number 10, that's his best position. You don't want him tracking back all the time when he's at his best higher up the pitch.

That's fair but it looks fairly likely he'll be signing but I'd want Iheanacho in the team as well so I tried to fit them both in, and with him being right footed he could play narrow and cut in from that left hand side

Would be stupid IMO. Not only would Chilwell get battered by having lack of cover from James, he'd also being cutting in from the left all the time due to his lack of pace. I prefer to have someone who can beat a man out wide.

That's not how it works.

 

If you want both of them you put them in a 4-4-2 diamond with Nacho and Vardy upfront and Maddison at the tip of the midfield.

Putting 11 players on the pitch based on ability but comprising on balance and structure will never work at top level football. That’s something you’d do on FIFA. I think you could find a place for them all, like someone above just said.

Or something Garth Crooks does every week for his Team of the Week!

Brilliant to see that we’ve addressed our obvious issues so early in the window. Now it’s time to move some players on and improve on them and sort the ongoing Mahrez situation out once and for all. Good work by all involved so far.

In a nutshell. Sensible and realistic......wait this is Foxes talk isn’t it?

The guy who flopped here and can't even get a game at Nice? 

 

A little harsh I know, and perhaps there is still a place for him here in our squad, but starting?? Yikes.

replace mendy with Iborra and this would be perfect

Iborra doesn’t shield the defence well and whoever is playing CDM needs to be able to cover our attacking fullbacks. 

 

Mendys a long shot, i wouldn’t mind seeing Choudhury in that position.

 

But tbh, I don’t think a diamond would work, looking at that line up we’d be reliant on one player to create again, this time it’s not Mahrez it’s Maddison which is a step backwards.

 

To replace Mahrez’s input i feel we need wingers alongside Maddison in the 10 role.

I also don't think the diamond would work. 

 

Another reason why, is that I think Vardy is at his best when working as a lone striker. He has free roam of the complete width of the final 3rd and can make those runs he loves without having to consider where his partner is in attack.

 

I still think the best option is to have a no.10 behind just him and with this diamond formation, people are looking at him partnering with Iheanacho.

 

I'd go for something like this..

 

---------------------Kasper------------------

Periera----Maguire----Evans----Chilwell

----------Loftus-Cheek----N'didi-------------

Shaqiri----------Maddison---------Hazard

---------------------Vardy-----------------------

 

Need another 3rd choice CB.

Silva/Iborra/Choudarry cover for CM.

Gray and Diabate cover for wings. 

Iheanacho cover for no.10/Vardy

Sign big lump no.9 for plan B.

 

Would cost a fair wack but not impossible.

Ambitious I admit! lol

 

Although when you think we have £60m coming in from Mahrez, plus whatever else we can get for Slimani, Musa, King and so on.. On top of anything the owners are willing to throw in... We may not be that short of £100m to spend - Shaqiri 12million. Hazard 35m maybe? Loftus-Cheek is the real unknown but as I've said, I'd take him on a season long loan, which certainly isn't a stretch of the imagination, if he isn't starting for Chelski next season. Maddison £18-20million. 

 

If the owners want regular top 6-7 finishes, then this kind of business would certainly help us take a big step towards that.

I’d spunk all the Mahrez cash on Zaha
