Shane Posted 8 August 2018 Posted 8 August 2018 If we are moving to 3 at the back then we need another LWB as comp for Chilwell unless Albrighton is back up for both RWB & LWB 1
Koke Posted 8 August 2018 Posted 8 August 2018 352 is useful but I prefer 4231, and i think Puel prefers that too. 1

I don't think it really matters. If more desirable clubs than us were interested in him they'd be given the nod that he'll be signing for Leicester in the nest 24 hours unless they make a move even if we were totally oblivious to this signing happening.
Ian Nacho Posted 8 August 2018 Posted 8 August 2018 It's either 3 at the back or Maguire is gone then.

No offence Rachid. It gets Iheanacho and Vardy in the team together. Plays to Ricardo and Chilwell's strengths. Maguire absolutely excels in a 3, as well as Soyuncu by the sounds of it. Obviously Puel hasn't played this formation at all in pre-season, but he's had no Vardy or Maguire and perhaps he finally sees this as an option to get the most out of certain players. I personally think it would be our best formation and a system that gets our best players out on the pitch. Couldnt agree more. That is our best 11 bar none. Looks awesome. Surely Puel must see this provided we retain HM. 1

st albans fox Posted 8 August 2018 Posted 8 August 2018 Just a note on this fella - arsenal aren’t out of the picture - hope we aren’t being used by his people to get that deal done ....
Lesta2014 Posted 8 August 2018 Posted 8 August 2018 Find it hard to believe we going 3 at the back having not tried it once all pre season! Yes players haven’t been available but why haven’t we tried it, we’ve had the midfielders available and would of been no harm playing an under 23 striker in vardys role in his absence.
tsintskaro Posted 8 August 2018 Posted 8 August 2018 (edited) 3-5-2 makes only sense with all these possible signings,but has Puel ever played this formation? Edited 8 August 2018 by tsintskaro

Saxondale Posted 8 August 2018 Posted 8 August 2018 Looks amazing. Why are we signing every centreback in the whole world? New 6-3-1 formation?

Vardinio'sCat Posted 8 August 2018 Posted 8 August 2018 40 minutes ago, Finnegan said: Makes sense, our two first choice full backs are much better as wing backs than they are as defenders. Meanwhile, we're very thin on the ground for wingers, haven't bothered replacing Mahrez sufficiently and only really brought in a budget reserve wing option who can also double as Maddison cover. I'm normally the last to start raving about 352 but it's starting to add up. Besides, Evans is old and Maguire will go eventually although not this season. Surely we're better getting in young replacements now than panic buying later? Maybe, shock of shocks, we're learning from our mistake with Riyad and getting replacements in early. 30 is not old for a CB 1

So any two of those three can cover both positions no problem.
EnderbyFox Posted 8 August 2018 Posted 8 August 2018 We are gonna be lethal at corners with Maddisons delivery and 8 CB's on the pitch
