He’s getting quoted a very high price. I doubt we could get him, but I wonder if this is the way Ancelotti will go, in the near future, as at times Ruiz played wide at Napoli, when Ancelotti didn’t play 2 out and out wide players
Pick
RB. CB CB LB
Gbamin/Gomes new CM.
Ruiz
RW. DCL. Richarlison
Ruiz did also play next to Allan in the centre quite a lot, and at times swapped with Zeilinski and played wide.
I could be taking complete rubbish, but as we seen v Chelsea, it’s easy to get over run in the middle playing 442. Unless you have 2 world class machines in the middle. Doesn’t help when you have Walcott & siggurdsson wide. I doubt iwobi or Bernard would have made much a difference. And Ancelotti will have to change the formation and personal at times next season, when up against the top sides.
