Strongest 11 when all fit

Can't find another thread for this so started a new one...

If we stick with 3-5-2 and can keep a fully fit squad (very optimistic!), this would be my starting 11 for the rest of the season:

 

I think Brown has to be in there. He just gives us a bit of balance in that midfield. Feel like we will always need a proper battling ball winner in the middle of the park, hoping Soro is going to be like that too.

Christie and McGregor don’t mind doing some dirty work and putting tackles in. But they should be left free to push forward.

 

Forster
Elhamed Jullien Ajer
Forrest Brown McGregor Taylor
Christie Elyonoussi
Edouard ​

 

Did ye no even look at yer own thread

Haha, knew there was one somewhere. Laziness got the better of me.

 

From a few days ago come on man.

 

June 2018... been a long few days ae

 

January 27th long few days.

 

We don’t have a strongest team, so many quality players it’s completely dependant on form.

Rogic Christie and Ntcham should all be starting with their talents but instead scrap over one position

 

Forster
Frimpong Jullien Ajer Elhamed
Christie McGregor
Forrest Rogić Elyounoussi

ElHam, Ajer CJ

This is 2020

 

No way seriously.

 

We played pretty much like this the other day

Forster
Welsh -----Jullien----- Ajer
Brown
-----------------------McGregor
Forrest-------Ntcham-----------------------
-------------------------Edouard---------Taylor
Griffiths​

I'd like to see this

Forster
Elhamed ---Jullien-------- Ajer
Brown
-----------------------McGregor
Frimpong----------Christie-----------------------
-----------------Rogic--------Forrest----
Edouard
​

Not ideal Forrest on the left but Christie can make runs out there and Forrest can come inside nearer the middle even at times going up front as Edouard isn't the best at leading the line and tends to come deep, him and Griffiths work well in that now when Edouard comes deep the defenders remain occupied with Griffiths keeping them back but i'd like to see Rogic playing instead of Griffiths to see how that works. In this kind of 3-5-2 set up Rogic can be carried easier as theres 3 at the back 2 wide guys and then 3 centre-mid to do his running and tracking back, keeping him reserved for attacking.

Frimpong will be suited to being left wide open in space on the right and us congesting the left more.

Elhamed will offer better balance to the team as well since he can get up to the half way line and use the ball more going forward. The current version of the 3-5-2 with Jozo and Welsh playing there means we keep using the left as Jozo and Welsh unlike Ajer don't take a ball forward and are less likely to pass it forward which left us always going to Jullien then Jullien giving it to Ajer so most moves were coming down the left.

Even that but with Griffiths instead of Rogic and then when Elyououssi is back he will also suit the left role were Forrest is and Forrest and him can rotate with Frimpong. Same way Griffiths could rotate with Rogic and Ntcham can come into Christies position and Christie could move into Rogic.

Suits everyone except Forrest.

 

Depends on the formation we play. Any variation of these are very strong, and depending on who starts it also gives us good options off the bench.

 

Forster

Frimpong Hatem Jullien Taylor

McGregor
Ntcham Christie

Forrest Eduoard Moi

 

Depends on the opposition and who’s in form.

Wouldn’t say we have a cemented strongest XI.

 

Forster

Frimpong
Elhamed
Jullien

Brown
McGregor
Christie

Forrest
Edouard
Elyounoussi

I would like to see elyounoussi uptop alongside eddie also, i think they would link up brilliant.
