    Should stick a false moustache on Commper and unveil him at half time, pretend he's some other * we've just signed

    Even though he bigged up Sinclair, you can tell he's a fair bit down the pecking order now behind Tierney if he's wing back. McGregor if he's left or inside left and the exact same for Edouard..

    When the first team were playing Sparta Prague, he was with the kid's playing the other the same day..

    When Sinclair is brought on it can change into a 4-2-3-1 if Dembele or Edouard are subbed.. but until we buy a RB or he starts to use Gamboa we’re not capable of playing that system effectively.. There is flexibility in the system, but Lustig Ralston(might make a decent R/CB) & Hendry aren’t dynamic RBs to make the most of 4-2-3-1

    In the 3-4-2-1 Edouard has been playing closer to Dembele tho..

    Bain
    Hendry Ajer Simunovic
    Forrest Brown Ntcham KT
    McGregor Edouard
    Dembele     ​

    It looked more of a 3-4-1-2 in Armenia..

    4-2-3-1 suits Sinclair, as I was saying to Crow it doesn’t suit us just now tho as we don’t have a RB who can play it effectively and we have so much quality in Brown, Ntcham, McGregor & Rogic that it makes sense to build a system around that midfield power..

    Would like to see us change it up now and again tho..

    Aye it did, Edouard was much closer to Dembele.. which is a slight tweak from the way he played it last season.. which I’m all for against weaker opposition.

    Completely agree..

    We were much more in game flexible during Brendan's first season as well..

    Team's definitely sussed us out a bit last year. Sit back and occupy the 1 man up top and we struggled (albeit with loadsa injuries)..

    A quick attacking right back and 1 or 2 more pieces to the jigsaw and I can see us reverting back to all kindsa formations that will cause havoc..
