So with injuries, suspensions & FIFA clusterfucks, our first choice CBs are now Rodon and Davies. Which will only drive Nuno into selecting an ever more defensive & timid line-up.
I totally agree we should have continued with the Skipp-PEH-Dele midfield and brought Gil in. Then we could have played the ball forward to both Gil & Lucas to break fast on the counter-attack.
We all know Dele is never going to link counter-attacks so he shouldn't be one of the front 3 or the AM in a diamond. But in that original 3 man midfield, Dele can be the runner with Skipp & PEH holding.
I don't understand why Nuno doesn't get this.
