Because I think Jake is better

Better then Michael?

Never ever ever thought I’d say this, but you can’t drop Keane atm.

Drop him in a heartbeat

He most certainly can be dropped.

Every one of those defenders could be dropped at the moment.

How many times did the ball bounce over Tark as well btw.

He might be cooked.

Shite him

Think Branthwaite makes them all look better than they are.

Wouldn't mind giving Jake a run at CB now with Garner at RB.

Wait until Jan to when we inevitably don't sign a RB.

Pickford
Job Keane tarkowski garner

Rohl KDH

Ndyiae Alcaraz Grealish

Barry

Garner is a big problem in the midfield, get him left back in that weird inverted role.

Gana is losing it I fear, time to see if we can play without him.

Alcaraz in the ten. Much needed directness, willingness to get in behind and get shots off.

Rohl needs to play. You can’t compete in the prem these days without a lanky runner.

Get big Micky up front Davie... at least he can finish

Lyons?

It’s obvious to everyone now that teams are targeting us in the full back area and Moyes needs to react I agree that Jared makes us so much better but we probably won’t see him until the new year I wouldn’t put garner at full back myko is grand defensively offers nothing going forward change right back and midfield and we will be better

Full back issue is really killing us isn't it?

Both wide players hugging the touchline as they can't drift inside because the full backs don't overlap or offer nothing even if they do.

Grealish and Ndaiye doubled up constantly, some times trebled up meaning they can't do much unless they somehow skin several players... Which they do manage sometimes but it's a big ask of them to produce our chances in that situation.

I'm back to wanting Grealish in the 10, get Garner RB, Ndaiye on the left and give Dibling a run on the right.

At least with Grealish central it creates space for Ndaiye and Dibling because it's harder to double up on the wide players when Jack's drifting around in a free role centrally.

The system we have currently would have some merit with McNeil left and DCL if he'd stayed, but drilling crosses over to Beto isn't going to yield goals and isn't the best use of the creative players we have.

What did he say after the game on Sunday?

Played well, undone by 2 set pieces which he's not happy about and we should have done better on them.
