I think Deki can play very well at RWB in this formation. What do you think about it?
I love that. Deki wouldn’t be too up against it defensively with the 3 holding
 
Just like to say a massive fuck you cunts, whats the score to all the Leicester players giving it the big en after the retaken penalty especially you Dewsbury-Hall you little runt cunt. Rant over.
 
we used that 5-3-2 against Chelsea when we couldn’t get the ball out of our own end and it changed the game and got us back in it.

I’m don’t remember us playing it all besides today and Chelsea (besides garbage time).

There’s a clear lesson - we are better when the midfield is not overrun.
 
He wasn’t alone by any means, but Bentancur wasn’t at his best first half. Couldn’t fault his effort but things just weren’t coming off. When Bissouma came on second half and gave us the additional player in midfield, Bentancur started to really play. He was taking balls on the half turn, looking up and forwards and his passing became much more crisp and accurate. Looked so much better than first half.
One leads to the other, in a 3 there is generally an additional option, and, 10-15% extra angle of grace due to this proximity (and opposition have 3 to mark, making pressing the middle very hard).

Would like him to practice Kulusevski as the 8. Then we could swap between.
