Yeah, it's as though we think that a three-pronged attack is still just a fad, and that good old 4-4-2 will eventually find its way back into fashion.He's a wide forward!
I dont grasp how people still pigeon hole wide forwards into wingers or centre forwards when 4-3-3 has been around for decades!
Its like Rashford at United, pundits say 'eventually he will move inside, whats the obsession with moving inside'?
The reds are the one of few teams who actually understand players can be assigned as a wide forward! Mane & Salah are not wingers & they are not centre forwards, they are wide forwards
Its why we need to play 4-3-3 if we are to get the best out of Richarlison & Calvert Lewin
The ability is definitely there. He just seems to be sulking. I thought it was because Calvert lewin was playing up top and he wanted to be the main striker, but in the last few games he has played there and failed to score. I reckon it's more a case of him seeing how poor we are so he's downed tools.At the age I really expected him to kick on. Probably been the biggest disappointment of the season.
He actually started the season in great form then the derby happened and he has ever found his form consistently since. Big fan but I agree he has disappointed this season considering he was after a big move.At the age I really expected him to kick on. Probably been the biggest disappointment of the season.
It really doesn't work if James isn't in the teamPlay him left of a 433. It maybe doesn't play to all his strengths but it helps the team and Lucas Digne.
Play 433 every week.
I just think he is player at our current level but not a certain starter at any of the sky 5 clubs. We might get more money than we deserve because he is a brazilian international. Face like a smacked bum.What a really disappointing season he's had.
Reading between the lines, just don't think he has the right attitude.
Agreed, I love him but he’s just not turned up since his red card. Nod to trueblueHe actually started the season in great form then the derby happened and he has ever found his form consistently since. Big fan but I agree he has disappointed this season considering he was after a big move.
This was me, was sure he was angling to be the main man, but he hasn’t stepped up. I also worry about how and he and DCL combined and then his free kick fiasco. Next season is pivotal, he’s got to deliver much much more in goals and assists or questions need to be asked. That talk of ballon d’or looks ridiculous right now.The ability is definitely there.

‘Petulant’ best describes Baldy...I find him unlikeable because of this trait
He isn't a left winger though, he is best as a LF in a 3 but even then there are aspects of his game that are not great. I find him a bit of an odd player tbh, he is clearly a talented lad but he does'nt really fit in a team properly imo.Stick him out left. He's not a CF.
