Don’t be under any illusions we lose that game 9 times out of 10. We should be 3-0 down at halftime. That isn’t a sustainable way to win games and even performances like that will get us relegated. We need to find a way to get consistent control in games #dcfc#dcfcfans
My preferred midfield three:
Mowatt - Ozoh - Clark
Mowatt: Holding midfielder - controls the game and solid off the ball
Ozoh: Physical player who secures possession
Clark: Ball carrying and main attacking threat from midfield.
This provides the best balance.
There’s a lot of discourse on here about what Derby’s best midfield is but there’s a massive lack of detailed analysis supporting these opinions.
If you’re interested here’s an actual breakdown of Derbys midfield options and where we struggle the most.
A thread 🧵 #dcfc
Fraulo is a number 10
That allows him to focus on his biggest strength creating chances.
The problem is fitting in a player who struggles of the ball so much into a team that is conceding so many goals .
