2019/20 Gylfi Sigurdsson

Not open for further replies.
Biggest problems were through the middle last night, th e pace that Villa attacked and our snail pace through the middle. Gomes and Schneiderlin are not a good pairing, too slow and similar although at least Gomes can pass forward. If it were me I would have replaced Schneiderlin with Iwobi, at least then we would have had pace and drive in midfield. Kean should have replaced an out of sorts DCL.
But the two chances missed last night were criminal, total lack of composure.
Wrong.
Iwobi plays Gylfi’s position. Stick him as a defensive mid it will be a mess
Gylfi was slow on Friday and got exposed by a championship team.
What we need is some youth and pace Unfortunately we’re limited on midfielders since Delph is made out of glass and Gbamma is injured
So
Davies - Iwobi - Gomes.

Iwobi played left mid in a 4-4-2 and played on the left the majority of his career with Arsenal.

And who's the defensive mid in that trio?
 

Dog is supposed to be our playmaker - in the first hLf Bernard was unmarked at the back of the Villa pen area screaming for the ball - Sig just dawdled with the ball chance gone play him further back alongside Gomes dropping snider and play Iwobi in his place.....
You're right but I think you're also drunk with the typos in this.
 
When a player is hopelessly out of form he should be left out of the team and that certainly describes Sigurdsson at present. That may change in a few fames.

Gomez had a horrible game against Villa but I will credit him with not trying to hide.
I think it was a mistake not to bring on Tom Davies and indeed he was unlucky not to start.
I would like to see Richarlison moved back into centre forward, Iwobi start Davies to replace Schneiderlin who is a total waste of space.

So sorry I was wrong Mourhino. lol

Agree , would have gone Iwobi for Gomes ( he was shocking on the day) and Keane for DCL would have dropped siggy into Gomes position and then had Moise up top. When chasing a goal you don’t have Bernard who doesn’t score many, Domestos lewin who can’t score open goals and Walcott who can even hit the target from 8 yards as 3 of your attacking 4 options. Taking off both of your top scorers from last season was a bit risky despite how badly their all round play was

Yes that's what I couldn't understand our two top scorers and one of our creators, who has scored our only goal this season, madness.
 
It's certainly not working with him as we have zero attacking threat through the middle. All of our players look terrified of going forward so it's hard to pinpoint the issue for me, but I would like to see Iwobi get a run of games to see the difference.
