There are free agents available that would resolve some of the issues.
Dele Alli wouldn't want personally but has worked with Frank before.
Ryan Kent
Leonardo Lopes
Brandon Williams - a left back he may have attitude issues but come on a left back
Daniel Amartey CB
Deli Ali no thanks .

Need to sort out left wing back. We have two contradictions. Bidwell fine defensively but rubbish going forward and Dasilva the other way around.

It's been a weakness for a long time. Hope FL can see that and finally sort it out.

Think it’ll be on his list as while Dasilva will do the attacking work he wants, defensively he is suspect. Bidwell being the opposite

Let's hope driving isn't part of Williams contract then....

This is the hill I am willing to die on. Please tell me what I am not seeing. Why are we not playing our best players in their best positions…

1) MVE - on his day heads and shoulders above any other player in our defensive unit. Play a back 4, play him on the right of that back 4 and let him do what he does best. This back 5 is wank, we are haemorrhaging goals, it doesn’t work.

2) Tats - he plays on the right, he doesn’t work in a 10, he doesn’t work on the left, it’s been tried multiple times play him where he plays best.

3) Haji - play the bloke on the left, 20 goals last year from the left, play him there, he’s our best player, play him where he’s most effective

4) Rudoni - play him in the 10, he isn’t a 6, he isn’t an 8, he’s a 10. He’s a creative player with a wand of a left foot, get him in advanced positions, don’t burden him with doing tonnes of defensive work, play him in the position he was signed to play.

Every signing in the summer was signed around a 4-2-3-1 formation, play that system, let it bed in.

Tell me that this isn’t our best side

GK (fuck knows which one right now)

MVE Thomas Binks Bidwell
Sheaf Eccles
Saka Rudoni Wright
Simms

People may disagree with the Simms shout but in my opinion Bassette is too erratic right now, his runs are all over the place and make it very tough for our midfielders to find him consistently (he’ll get better at that) he’s good in games where we have to play on the counter and look for quick balls in behind but when we have a lot of possession I’m not sure he’s the one, I also don’t think BTA has done enough to deserve a start.

Simms got 20 goals last year he can cut it at this level and proved he can be very effective with Wright, for me give him 6-8 games and let’s see if he can find that form again.

Your most influential players need to play in their best positions, simple as.

Tats should always be on the right, but should only play at home as he's shit away from home and disappears wayyy too often.

Lampard is a 433 manager

play

Dovin
MVE Thomas Kitching Bidwell
Sheaf. Eccles
Rudoni
Sakamoto simms wright

until January, see how we improve and then make signings from there
Funny you should say that. probably exactly why DK has gone for him so he can make best use of the players he has invested heavily in to play exactly a 433 system

Completely agree

Think FL will go with JDS as Bidwell is so poor on the ball

As soon as he came on against Sheff Utd we lost all attacking impetus down the left side and it was game over

I really like the idea if him as an experienced, hard defender but don't think he is better than average in that regard either unfortunately

Left footed MVE is a must in January (although even he has been v underwhelming this season)

Sheaf or Eccles sitting, the other one + Rudoni or Torp going.

Big thing for me is telling Sheaf to stick to what he’s one of the best in the league at. He’s been a bit too ‘involved’ for me since Hamer went. Focus on winning the ball, securing defensive shape and get us playing from deep. That would undoubtedly help others play their game.
