Match Thread: VFL Udinese vs Swansea City (12pm KO)

I think if you gave Matos a fully fit squad with no injuries this would be the 11 he would choose tommorow imo.

Vigs
Lissah Cabango Welsh Tymon
Stamenic
Franco Just
Yeo Vip Opoku

He's been on the record about wanting a tall/atheltic midfielder in there which i Imagine will be used to rotate with Franco.

Thats my interpretation of it so far from what we've seen last season, in pre season and what hes being saying so far.
Can’t start both Stamenic and Franco. Ball won’t reach the final 3rd, both way to similar. You start them 2 if you’re playing Man City and you know you won’t have much of the ball. Yeo isn’t a RW too.

I imagine thats why he wants an extra midfielder in through the door and with the additions of Lissah and Welsh in the back line to help he sees that as suitable enough?

I'm purely speculating here btw thats just what I imagine his plans are.

Could be a pretty exciting team moving foward.

4-3-3/4-2-3-1 whichever way you want to format it, it's the same concept.

Does pose the question what is the plan with players like Widell/Walta/Inoussa/Burgess who were all brought in only a year ago.
i think walta will play in the 8 instead of new dm and there no point of buying a new dm when we have fulton aswell think we need a box to box player

It's a squad game and the style of play requires rotation. Widell and Walta will get minutes. Inoussa and Burgess, who knows, but I can see getting sold.

Franco has barely played as a 6 for us and when he has he's looked absolutely lost. He's almost exclusively played as a box to box 8 getting forward. Just because he's energetic that's very different to being defensively disciplined.

Point I’m making is that they both excel out of possession, not saying they’re the same profile of player. If we’re looking to be a team that dominates the ball which we will under Matos you can only have 1 of them starting. If not our fowards will continue to struggle as they’ll have to drop deep to collect all the time. Both the top players below (Gally & Yalcouye) aren’t here now so it’s imperative we replace that skillset
