Why, in this time of crisis, doesn't Poch give Foyth a go in midfield?

Because Foyth is a CB not a midfield player.
Playing someone out of position was exhibited today when Rose did a very bad impersonation of a CM for 40 odd minutes.
We've tried Son at WB (didn't work)
Horses for courses.
I think we are trying to compensate for the lack of invention in our midfield.Also, lets never play a back 3 again? Worked with Walker and Rose in their prime, not with these FBs.
Whatever happened to our 4-2-3-1? We seem to be crying out for it sometimes this season.
Quality of football was like watching stoke burnley ffs
I read the other week that he played as as ACM. Fancy that.
Also dear Christ we miss Dele.
Neither is Eric Dier. Wanyama's goose is cooked. And if I am being kind, Sissoko is fatigued.Because Foyth is a CB not a midfield player.
I was talking about Foyth, Baz.Danny tried his best but not his position
Best out wide
Well we'll be losing at least two members of our spine in the summer - so he should care.
What it means is that yes Kane was in an offside position when the free kick was struck, but the offside offence shall only be called if he makes an attempt to play the ball or plays the ball.No idea what that means. It sounds like, even if you're fouled after being offside, the foul should be awarded?
When the free kick was taken, Kane was offside and therefore a free kick should have been awarded. He was then fouled and a penalty awarded.
We were very lucky.
I prefer to play badly and get a point, than play well and get nothing. If Woolwich had won today the pressure would have been really on.Quality of football was like watching stoke burnley ffs
I get the intent, I just don’t agree. What’s wrong with Winks and Sissoko as the 8 and 6 with Eriksen-Dele-Son in front of them and Kane up top?I think we are trying to compensate for the lack of invention in our midfield.
This sounds right and wrong at the same time.What it means is that yes Kane was in an offside position when the free kick was struck, but the offside offence shall only be called if he makes an attempt to play the ball or plays the ball.
As Mustafi fouls him before he plays at the ball he has not yet committed and offside offence and thus the foul should be awarded.
False dichotomy friend. Wanting to improve the squad ie 'spend[ing] money' does not mean throwing it around willy nilly (another one for you bus-conductor ). Wanting to spend money doesn't justify janssen. Having actual fucking scouts that get around or are based in other fucking leagues would be great. Not just "oh we've done business with those folks let's see if they've got people we can buy".Do you wanna spend money or not?
No, when you shell out 42 large it HAS to work in our situation. This ain't some lower league 5M punt, that is real money.Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn’t.
Who said anyone has written him off? What has been said, and I have agreed, is that right now he is lacking.And to write off a CB at age 22 is lunacy.
It's all opinions but he has never been the best player on the pitch for me. There have been games where he has been error free I admit but they are few and far between and due to the frequency of his errors I never feel comfortable with his play. Foyth has made errors but they are the kind that don't make me feel nervous. His tendency to overplay does though. Routine shit makes me nervous with Sanchez because he has an error in him.there’s been matches where he’s been out best player on the pitch over the past 2 seasons
What are you talking aboutI really hope Winksy is ok for tuesday or it could be a really long night. If we play like we did today dortmund could do the unthinkable.
Absolutely delighted to not lose but fuck me that was diabolical-no response after Burnley at the racists, no reaction today in either half after Wednesday and we got really lucky to nick a point. If Woolwich had anything about them esp with the quality of those three subs coming on they would have hammered us second half.
Hope the purse strings are being loosened as we speak because we are going backwards compared to those around us and desperately need quality in and deadwood out this summer.
What's the answer?
