If we are considering switching to a back 3, why arent we doing that now, in preseason.

I reckon hes back up, we got VERY lucky that Tarks and Branners hardly missed a game last season, we honestly wont get that lucky again.

Its the Beto issue again, we bought him cos we didnt expect DCL to play all season, he did, so Beto fed on scraps and "suffered" to a degree, its forward planning, if we get "lucky" then it seems silly, if we dont, its sensible, forward planning, its new to us.

If we intend to go to a back three we'll know soon enough as we'd have to sign another CB else we are in the same situation in regards to depth

If Jarrad isn’t sold, I can really see a back 3 on the cards. If only to take our fullback issues out of the equation. Again, I have no idea how the manager rates O’Brien so we shall see.
 
We did have that cup game last season where we battered villa away playing 3 at the back.

Agree though that we would surely be playing a 3 right now if we were going to go that way.
 

Keane had a certain pedigree in that he was a premier league hardened operator before he signed for us.

This guy no one can comment on because he has no body of work
He’s talented enough that Lyon, one of the big boys in France, wanted him. He looks like he’ll be handy at set plays which is good enough for us
