He's made it clear he's not doing that, he's been so stubborn about it he now has to stick with it and it could end up being the thing that costs him his job

Quite similar to Ange who played his ridiculous high line, even when his fast defenders were injured he played it, even when they went down to 9 men he played it and that poor league finish is what cost him his job

I do agree a 4-2-3-1 with the current lot could work

Lammens/Onana
Mazraoui - Yoro - De Ligt - Dorgu
Ugarte - Casemiro
Mbeumo - Bruno - Cunha
Sesko

Until he gets a dynamic CM that's the formation he should go with

I wouldn't play Ugarte I would play Mainoo however it looks like he's not in his plans.

I do rate Mainoo but he's not a 6 and I'm not even sure he's an 8 either

He's more of a hybrid between an 8 and a 10

I would play him as the 8 and not the 6.

I can see that working if you play 3 in midfield, then with the right kind of profile of the other 2 midfielders he can thrive but as we've already said Amorim isn't playing that

Obviously striker is our priority but I'd love for us to sign him, think with the likes of Tonali/Bruno providing the legs in midfield he could really thrive and we know Howe has a great record of developing players

Yes howe has good record.i think 3 more games Amorin should get if he doesn't get results should be shown the door.
