2021/22 Andre Gomes

Here we go.
The Gomes band wagon

He only looks decent off the bench because his pace levels match the opposition who have played for 70 minutes and are starting to tire.

He's completely over run from the start and will be eaten alive on Sunday sadly by the likes of Schlupp and Kouyate.

Still astonishes me how we never brought a CDM in January to slot in alongside Doucoure.

Frank had no other option the other night. Down to 10 and one midfielder on the pitch

Didn’t even have a CB to throw on to maybe move Godfrey or Holgate in there or even a Kenny who has played midfield in his younger days. Is Kenny back for the cup game?

Young issac price with the squad tomorrow
 

It will be Doucoure,Gomes and Iwobi, that’s all we have, I suppose Townsend could play in there if needed.
Issac price with the squad. I wonder if he plays wing backs, maybe Kenny and Mykolenko with 2 midfielders and a number 10 ( gordon/iwobi) to help the midfield. Palace tend to play with a DM so you could see the number 10 sitting on him.

Then 2 up top. Richarlison and DCL?

If Branthwaite is available I would be tempted to put either Godfrey or Holgate as a makeshift CDM in a 3 with Doucoure and Gomes unless he puts Iwobi in there and gives him free reign with Doucoure and Gomes sat more deeper.
 
We can’t start Gomes ! Shown too often he can’t do it ! Yes he understood the assignment when he came on the other day ! Don’t think I’ve seen him be a little terrier that like that before ! Charging in reminded me a bit of gravesen when he had a few mad moments ! But he can’t start Sunday ! He doesn’t have the nouse to do it for a full game and he’s too relaxed in his play for a full 90 !
 
Or Gordon who played central v Newcastle
Not for me, playing Gordon centrally blunts his attacking runs. Keep him on the wing where his pace and direct style will ensure their fullbacks dont get a licence to get up the pitch whenever they like? i would keep the defence that played on Thursday personally and maybe try a kid in the midfield, just for their energy? Will we have Kenny back?

Yeah maybe Iwobi as a 10 for Palace. I don’t think we have any young midfielders likely to step in tbh.
Kenny is back.

Still think Gomes should start against Palace though, he's got to go hard and sharp from the start, if not, hook him again
