Need to go to five at the back

Recommended Posts

Whittaker and Brady as wing backs, Bennett as third centre back and it leaves you with options in midfield and up front with better line up defensively and the ability to deal with quick skillful wingers

Why? Because we have 1 premier league centre back and that''s Bassong. Martin and Bennett are championship level. Plus we only have 3 centre backs at the club right now. We can''t use all 3 of them because we won''t have any back ups!

I don''t think you''ve thought this through to its logical conclusion - we need to go nine at the back with Cam on his own up front.

Pointless playing 3 centre backs when the opposition play one up front.Lose a midfielder to play an extra man at the back, lose control of the midfield.System relies on a ball playing centre back to bring it out, we do not have one.Wingback system opens up space behind the advancing wingback and we do not have centre backs with any pace to cover the space.

Wing backs push on to make extra midfielders on the flanks enabling us to have three up front when city are attacking and cover for the full backs when tricky fast wingers are attacking city''s box

We were punished on the left side of our defence today, particularly second half. What we need is an experienced international specialist left back to be back to fitness and soon.
