Formations no longer exist in Football.
Positional Play is the Now and Future.
Gone are the days of conventional setups and no rotations.
But there’s always an origin of play(442/343/433).
All the elite teams play like this.
Chelsea need to be up next.
[MEGA THREAD] 🧵
, a conundrum as that’s why Lavia + Moi can never work in an Alonso system and why Lavia will always be a sub CM now.
We need movers, we have them outwide already and at FB, once you get Scott + another mover then the light at the end of the tunnel is very bright.
Alex Scott will be blue and is the game changer.
We need a floater around the pitch that can collect from deep + run it down + shuttles round the park ( wijnaldum ) like I said.
We’re the new Liverpool.
Deadliest front 3 itl, flying fullbacks, Caicedo - Scott ( Fabinho/gini)
Marco Palestra changes everything when he’s back + firing with Moises caicedo.
You don’t have to worry about subpar wingback play when he is basically our Bradley Barcola that should defend.
A tactical Swiss Army knife and the 🔑in an Alonso system.
With the iteration of the squad now Alex Scott WILL provide the same value Palestra provides on the flanks.
I’ve thought about it and
seamlessly be the plug in the attacking 5 & defensive 5 that makes the system tick.
Henderson is good but not dynamic enough so our build up looks
a. mediocre because there’s no collector that can act the conductor role ( Caicedo and Hendo are more stable CM’s not dynamic movers)
Can sense the mentality fatigue from the Arsenal players already.
Even if they go on to win this game you have to tell yourself the truth and notice the difference in vim / passion.
@cfc_gielho Rogers transition ability more translatable and makes him more consistent because even if he doesn’t have a great game aesthetically the transition playmaking + decision making is ALWAYS translatable
Small space operators like Doue who are not great passers can be moments players
Everyone knows the real Doue truther.
And…
Rogers is Doue with 99th percentile physicality that makes him a better #10 + SS than a Doue.
He can also play as an #8 and has an underrated passing bag to go with all the attributes.
The modern Day Kaka.
You get Rogers central in game for 10 mins and you see how good he is and how dynamic his mind is.
Yes he can do it from wide but till we get Scott / FDJ ( dynamic Tempo Mezzala that can carry ) it’s better for team dynamics he plays central and palmer dictates from the right
Centre not for keeping the ball mate.
We need more threat down the flanks from both sides like all top teams.
Rogers moment of brilliance and the ( again ) threat of pace from Hato is what gave us the goal.
I’m a believer in the fact we need to play Rogers #10 / SS, Neto on the LHS & Palmer on the Right.
Yes we might suffer with wingers ( not really even ) but I’d rather lose the ball outwide than centrally.
And the dynamic makes us x10 better in attack.
Rogers a second striker
that can receive any ball because he’s so strong and has top tech to go with it.
Palmer on the Right would have been perfect with someone more dynamic than Hendo ( Scott ) but we can still use it now.
Acheampong will provide the runs and Neto LHS with Hato is a speedster combo
