Dele has played much deeper in all of the pre-season matches. 4-3-3 again today from the looks of it.
Still getting forward, though.
Hope he can turn things around and regain his form with us.Loving Dele the quarterback..
lol What, because he's finally slipped a few clever through-balls through in forever?
I don't mind it, he's just never looks comfortable further back, but he seems to be finding the right balance tonight.I think it’s much better for him to have a clearer role in the team rather than being allowed to float around up front. Let him get into the action in the centre rather than hanging around waiting for the play to come to him.
Unfortunately, I just don't see it happening despite him looking pretty solid today so far. I'm not hoping that it's the case because it only helps us if he can return to form, but not sure how he suddenly turns it around after 2 seasons of mediocre play.Hope he can turn things around and regain his form with us.
