Kind of like a question of sport ‘ who is it’ celebrity reveal. Qué? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can’t even see him being a suitable back up to Youri. Youri averages more tackles, more interceptions, more goals, more assists and more key passes than Soumare does. This guy has zero goals and assists this season. There’s players out there, who could offer much more, when either Ndidi or Tielemans are out. ...if anything I see him as a metronome in our midfield!!! Not a Youri replacement but more a Ndidi upgrade. The player that makes the pass to the player giving the assist, the stats are misleading, as they do not tell the real story.

Sunbury Fox Posted 19 June 2021 Share Posted 19 June 2021 Think we're going for a 433 next season with Wilf, Youri and Soumaré (or Maddison, depending on opposition), in midfield; a front 3 of Barnes, Vards and Daka; and Ricardo, Fofana, Evans, Timmy/JJ at the back.

We would be hearing a lot more links to wingers if we planned a 433. I think Barnes is going to be squeezed into a new role when he returns. I think we have the option to switch it up but it wont be the main formation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was talking about players being on end of season holidays and at the Euros etc. But he pointed out we may also just want to pass the cost to the next financial window. The financial year for most businesses runs til April, but FFP and similar spending rules for both the Premier League and UEFA run usually til the end of the season, which is typically the end of June, no? I thought that FFP rules had been suspended for this season because of the implications of COVID. Then again, I think prem teams had to agree a reduced tv income budget for the effects of COVID and we seem fairly business savvy so it could be that we want our budget sorted for next season before we commit to anything..

I think Barnes will be a Maddison alternative, the two up top will be Vardy and Daka or Iheanacho. Both will at times roam wide allowing Maddison or Barnes to maraud forwards centrally. It’s an attempt to keep the fluidity we showed at 4-1-4-1 but not have designated wide players that are hard to attain. I think Fofana will be encouraged to step forwards and allow Ndidi or Soumare to carry the ball more. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Flair Posted 19 June 2021 Share Posted 19 June 2021 Vardy and Daka won't work together, it'll be one of those up front on their own or alongside Iheanacho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sdb Posted 19 June 2021 Share Posted 19 June 2021 Barnes would be wasted as a 10 imo. We missed his pace stretching teams so much in the last quarter of the season 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect it’s all to do with quarantine periods ? No point bringing Soumane into the UK to quarantine for 10 days, sign and then do fcuk all for a few weeks. Equally we can’t get our medical teams out across Europe at the mo either. So suspect everything will be wrapped up nearer towards the start of pre season Edited 19 June 2021 by Cardiff_Fox 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
