You make a fair point re midfield 3 giving us more control over a game.
But what I fear is that with a 3-5-2 where you don't have any creative or attacking midfielders, and wing backs aren't huge threats; the pressure on Kane & Son to score is way too much.
I know you'll respond with Bergwijn's poor scoring stats, but at least he makes good off the ball runs which then frees up space for Kane and Son.
The only way we're beating Liverpool to the punch is if the player we want absolutely hates Liverpool.Bissouma would be good. Levy will have that Liverpool diaz hijack on his mind now. In future he will fuck them over in a deal to get back at them. Hope he does.
First time I've encountered this fella. He made me miss ArcspacE.
Boro in Hendrick loan talks
Newcastle need to allow a few players to leave to offset the arrivals of Bruno Guimaraes, Dan Burn, Kieran Trippier and Chris Wood to the squad.
And Jeff Hendrick could be the first - the midfielder is in talks with Middlesbrough over a loan move.

"I had a very good time, I hope to return one day", apparently.
If he has visited the City before and met the localsThe only way we're beating Liverpool to the punch is if the player we want absolutely hates Liverpool.
Surely what this comes down to, is would Kane & Son prefer a third midfielder to join PEH & Skipp, such as Bentancur or Winks; or would they prefer Bergwijn? I think Kane prefers the latter as he has 2 options now to ping his through balls too; while Son would prefer being marked less closely due to the presence of another attacker on the pitch.As I said there is no formation that makes up for our shit MF so for me I prefer to play with a front 2 that I think suits Kane/Son over the front 3.
In thinking Kulusevski might fit the 10 role in a 3-4-Kulusevski-2
Or one of the sides in a 3-4-3
What if Hercules and Trix are Levy... And he's got them paying to use a forum.JJ and Paul O'Keefe are pretty on the ball when it comes to comings and goings.
No one is ever one hundred percent. Well unless your name is Hercules or Trix, who are both related to Levy it seems.
His recent peeformance was an anomaly IMO, his "potential" has been found out, its severely lacking. He's just a teenage donkbag babyBut Bergwijn is starting to perform, came on and scored 2 at Leicester and was one of our better players against Chelsea - He had a couple of decent matches in December but has been interupted by injury.
We knew he had potential, we just needed a coach to unlock it and Conte is starting to do it and we are starting to see it.

I would agree with your argument on 3-5-2 (which we concurred on this summer) if the third mid was someone creative who could create chances for Kane & Son and really stamp their authority on the game. We don't have that option.
