I think he has in the past? Not sure, but I'll be very glad to see it. Just dreading the thought of johnson deeper at left back, thats going to be the cause of many a goal against this season.

Fry & Johnson on the left is a recipe for disaster. Link to post Share on other sites

He hasnt shown anything to warrant that in my opinion I think the other signing were after will be a left back then we can either play 352. 433. 4231. Take tav out of the team and replace him with roberts and were back to square one with only one creative player on the pitch. We need both. Link to post Share on other sites

Tav ended last season Under Warnock strongly, I’d agree though he’s been very quiet so far this season. Great news on Roberts Link to post Share on other sites

Great news on Roberts Tav had Roberts on the pitch with him for most of those final few games. Getting Roberts back may well free Tav up a bit as he's no longer our only creative source. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I would prefer 433 personally and play them both but i just wouldnt have tav down as a regular starter Link to post Share on other sites

We need both. I'm not convinced we do need them both on the pitch, certainly not at all times. I think the 3-4-1-2 can still work and offer us something a bit different with Roberts operating behind the strikers. But honestly, just knowing that, if this does go through, we can change the system up a bit to accommodate them both is a good thing. 3 Link to post Share on other sites

Tav as a mezzala. Definatly need another left back like. I would like one that can also play CB aswell. Especially if were playing with a 4 at the back. All 4 need to be solid. Djicksteel on the right. Link to post Share on other sites

CrazyL 2,565 Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 It’s interesting the way the window is panning out. For a change the clubs seem to have a bit of power - the closer it gets to the deadline then players and agents asking top buck will start to sweat a bit - I wonder what deal Maddison finally got at Charlton after a couple of months without a job? I think it really could be a mad scramble next week when players left out of PL squads + free agents are suddenly faced with the prospect of being out in the cold. The lad we’ve been trying to get from Europe that Warnock talks about - go back Monday before the deadline, one last chance on our terms, take it or leave it? Link to post Share on other sites
TLF10 4,440 Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 Tbd Howson Sav and Morsy all offer that industry you maybe need in our formation so they will be interchangeable. I think Tav n Roberts will be rotated too. Roberts is a bit more twinkle toed so to speak and can unlock a tight defence and win free kicks. I hope. Link to post Share on other sites
DevKWat 2,365 Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 If he goes to a 4-3-3 and puts tav in the midfield we will quickly see him back to his best. No attacking responsibility but bursting forward when given the chance 👍🏼 Link to post Share on other sites
Weasel 965 Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 Absolutely buzzing with the Roberts news. Glad I didn't change my picture! The boro are going up. Link to post Share on other sites
