All of your line ups have very serious problems. Son out of position on RW, moving Porro to RW is a big risk, Kulu is not suited to RCM, and your LCM Bentancur is injured for months (understand that Skipp can play DM, Bissouma LCM, but means Sarr has more positions to cover as back-up).A few options should Maddison get injured:
Son ------ Kane ------ PorroNotes:
Bentancur ------ Kulu
Bissouma
Solomon ------ Kane ------ Son
Bentancur ------ Kulu
Bissouma
Son ------ Kane ------ Kulu
Bentancur ------ Sarr
Bissouma
- Son & Solomon (+arguably Gil) can play on both sides.
- You might consider Kulu out of position, but some people are jazzed about AM being his best position.
- People are similarly jazzed about Porro as RW.
WouId I welcome a back-up AM (eg Scott); sure...... Bring it on.
Would I prefer GLC ahead of any of the above? No.
Scott is not PL ready yet.
The fact you would prefer all of these ahead of a player who starts in RCM/LCM for Argentina and Villarreal in a 433... is irrational.
Emery is a smart manager, knows the difference between PL and La Liga better than most, and knows GLC inside out.
I wonder if you believe the rumours he faked injuries and are letting emotions getting in the way?
