Looks like we need a solution for Saturday, McNeill performed really well at wing back but a back 5 means keane starting. Could McNeill play left back? It's quite a step from wing back if he's never played there

He has done alright in a back 3 before, I know his name is mud right nowHe could play Holgate on the right-side of the 3
Yeah that is obviously the major problem with that, tho Gray has definitely got better with his work-rate since being here.I dont think the issue is 'can McNeil cover for Mykolenko?' as much as it is 'Can Gray cover for McNeil?'
The centre of the pitch is where this game will be won or lost, so no moving there...Real quandary this.
Myko gone makes us more vulnerable on the left.
Move McNeil back with Gray in front and we are both more vulnerable and less dangerous.
Replace Myko with a centre-back and we also have problems (e.g. Holgate).
Um...I'd be tempted to move a defensively capable midfielder there - Garner, Onana ?
Was thinking this myself.Anyone reckon Mykolenko might actually play on Saturday?

Yeah I'm really not sure what I think the best solution is, we don't even have a left footed cb as far as I'm awareThe problem with playing Holgate, is that the mutt, Diego Costa ( if he started ) would have a field day winding Holgate up and we all know what happens then.

Anything is better than holgate he shabiteCould garner fill in at left back. Bring onana into centre midfield?
