Re: [LU] If i were t'gaffer
Isn’t the point of wingbacks that you don’t have to have conventional wingers? Agree it would be the best use of Firpo, but it would make the team as a whole worse… Sent from my iPhone > On 16 Feb 2023, at 12:18, Richard Walker via Leedslist > wrote: > > I don't think we can accomodate a left back that can't defend.

Re: [LU] If i were t'gaffer
I don't think we can accomodate a left back that can't defend. He will cause us problems. Firpo nearly always get booked in games as he hasn't the pace or know how to defend on his back foot.

Firpo has looked decent going forward but suspect defensively, so wing back should suit him. The new US pairing in centre mid looks dynamic and destructive , albeit lacking in guile/ killer passes so should be solid and win plenty of ball .

Re: [LU] If i were t'gaffer
My mates and I were discussing whether 3 at the back with 2 wing backs would be our best option - wober , koch and cooper or Struijk. Firpo has looked decent going forward but suspect defensively, so wing back should suit him. The new US pairing in centre mid looks dynamic and destructive , albeit lacking in guile/ killer passes so should be solid and win plenty of ball . Add any 2 from 4 wingers - Gnonto, Harrison, Summerville and Sinisterra to run at defenders and create havoc and then Bamford at 9 with Rutter as back up.Would make us more solid at the back and 3 CHs would help at set pieces, and we have enough power to win midfield battles and lots of exciting options in the final third.
