And silva knows it. He was very very explicit that he wanted a left footed player to play on the right. We didn’t get him one though.
Sometimes the right player isn't available at the right price. There is still enough in this team to sort out a competent attack and he should get on with doing it rather soon.
 
Starting to get concerned to be honest. I know he's a young lad, but these dips in form seem to happen a bit too frequently still.
 
Why are we playing Brazil’s number 9 on the wing and DCL upfront.

He’s not a winger he’s stiff as a Rolf Harris board and doesn’t create or assist ffs.

We had the entire board saying he was a winger last year. He just needs to improve how he controls and passes a ball. He's got all the ability but right now he isn't reaching the levels he can.
 

Even though I would like to see Iwobi as a 10 some to spell Siggy. I could see Richy central and Iwobi on the wing some. DCL has been given time to prove his worth but is struggling.
 
Nothing to do with ability. He's in terrible form right now. Silva and him have to find a way to get him back in form

And before the position thing is mentioned again. He was fine there last season as it stopped his poor midseason form
Capture.webp
 
I still don't know what exactly is what he does?

He can't dribble past a man, can't pick a decisive pass and his heading is poor.

He just gets in the right place to slot home everynow and then.

Surely in the last 10 years we could have scouted half a decent left footed winger suited to modern football.
 

His passing is quite Pooh , he holds the ball to much and dives and whinges a lot . He’s young tho and scores goals so hoping he can improve them weaker areas as he gets older
 
Why are we playing Brazil’s striker on the wing and DCL upfront.

IMO Richy and Bernard need to be switching places throughout the game. Include DCL at times switching spots as well.

It all seems predictable from a defensive standpoint.

We down the Flanks every single time and it does my head in. Never see the ball played into siggy or rolled into the strikers feet. Our only tactic is to mess about with it and hope to play Coleman , who can’t cross , into a crossing position to them deliver the ball to our static striker that can’t score from 6 yards out. Digne gets played in too but again it doesn’t really produce and chances or goals. We try to be to precise with our passing and it’s dull and slow and must be relatively easy to defend against hence our poor goals showing in pre season and our shots and chances created this season. Gomes and Morgan should not be playing in the same team and deffo should t be our first choice pairing. Both are slow, don’t take risky passes and don’t score goals or even create chances. It Iwobi can play 10 then maybe siggy in Cm with him taking the number 10 spot and paying some Russian mafia members to kidnap DCL so Keane starts. Walcott shouldn’t be at the club never mind on the pitch and Silva needs to realise, as much as he loves 4-2-3-1 it’s not creative or fluid enough with the players we have. I get he likes that formation but you have to get the best out of the players you have and we don’t have the right players to play that way imo. Siggy doesn’t suit it , DCL doesn’t suit anything , Coleman can’t cross and Bernard doesn’t score enough.
