I agree that wingbacks with what we have at our disposal IS our best hope, however all that will get us is midtable/survival at best. I see where CT is coming from in that it’s a pretty lame excuse not to try and better the team, it CANT be that hard to get a better LB than bola and a failed winger. I still feel we could do well but we are heavily reliant on Tav, Browne and Howson to provide assists and goals from midfield. Akpom I think will improve things as he will be better at linking midfield to attack than fletcher and also allow Britt to sit higher up. That said I think there will be a lot of games where we struggle to create anything. Essentially we have less width in the team than even pulis had. -

Have you just noticed? there's been no rumours all summer -
Bielsa has played 2 defensively minded midfielders alongside a dominant central defender in a back three. Some believe that the back three needs to contain two highly mobile defenders either side of a dominant in the air, yet capable of bringing the ball out type of defender... which highlights to me that it doesn't matter about formations most of the time, we just need good players. Which kind of goes back to what Robson used to say about Liverpool, but that was decades ago, so does it still apply, do good players win matches/leagues, or good managers/systems? -
I’d like to do it again. And my personal recommendation world be Sam Morsy -
Quite a few pages of arguments about formations, and the relative merits of fullbacks, wingbacks and wingers though.
