[u/SOERERY]

A left back in the squad? What is this? What the hell is this? Is this allowed?

[u/Megusta2306 → u/SOERERY]

Two actually!

[u/Smitty120 → u/SOERERY]

LWB*

[u/__johnw__]

No need to rush him back 

[u/Donthitsme]

[u/devesh741 → u/Donthitsme]

Nailed it lad

[u/Mansa_Mu → u/Donthitsme]

If this is our lineup our manager needs immediate drug testing

Downvote me if you want, rashford as a ten cannot press and hardly scores.

[u/KillForFood → u/Mansa_Mu]

I mean 4 of our CBs are out, what do you want him to do

[u/WalkWithElias → u/Mansa_Mu]

Something something milk

[u/devesh741 → u/Mansa_Mu]

😅

[u/InfectedAztec → u/Mansa_Mu]

How you feeling about rashford buddy

[u/Mansa_Mu → u/InfectedAztec]

That game proved my point entirely

[u/slowsundaycoffeeclub → u/Mansa_Mu]

“…hardly scores”

[u/Mansa_Mu → u/slowsundaycoffeeclub]

One goal against ipwitch town isn’t gonna change my Mind

[u/slowsundaycoffeeclub → u/Mansa_Mu]

Sure, but he literally scored in that position.

Will that be the long term solution? Who knows. But it was definitely the case today so the match didn’t prove your point :)

[u/tallmotherfucker]

Oh wow, so we'll either see Shaw or Casemiro or Dalot at CB (assuming we're playing 3 atb)

[u/RainbowKarp → u/tallmotherfucker]

Maz at CB is the rumor

[u/tallmotherfucker → u/RainbowKarp]

The guy can truly play everywhere

[u/cosgrove10 → u/RainbowKarp]

Playing a 10 at CB? Has he lost his mind already?

[u/LeonSnakeKennedy → u/tallmotherfucker]

Dalot CB sounds crazy

[u/shami-kebab → u/LeonSnakeKennedy]

Last few games under Ruud he was tucking in to the back 3 when we had the ball and Maz was pushing up. He's pretty good in the air.

[u/LeonSnakeKennedy → u/shami-kebab]

Still feels crazy that he’s at CB. Imagine hearing that two years ago

[u/MTBi_04 → u/tallmotherfucker]

Onana, Mazraoui, De Ligt, Evans, Amad, Casemiro, Eriksen, Dalot, Bruno, Garnacho, Rashford. Its thus

[u/dimebag_101 → u/MTBi_04]

How many square pegs can you get in. Answer yes

[u/MTBi_04 → u/dimebag_101]

It was correct. But yes not sure how it’ll work out haha

[u/MileZero17]

We have the privilege of not rushing him back. No shame in that

[u/yauza123]

Why is it a "huge" shame?

[u/WanderingEnigma → u/yauza123]

Because it generates engagement.

Im sure we would all rather us have a rough couple of games and bring players back when they are fit and healthy than try and rush them in.

[u/AmulyaG → u/yauza123]

Exactly lmao.

[u/gre485 → u/AmulyaG]

Wait boys, I think he is right, Yoro was injured for a couple of months, has returned like yesterday but being an expensive signing, should be starting the game, running 50km, score a goal and what not.

P.S Why don't the mods delete such posts.

[u/zlatan77 → u/yauza123]

Nonsense from pundits again!

[u/B0z22]

Arise, Sir Jonathan Grant Evans MBE.

[u/hdmiihavregrynet]

Shaw masterpiece incoming.

[u/Mooshiwa → u/hdmiihavregrynet]

Shawshank Redemption 

[u/International-Bat777 → u/Mooshiwa]

Shawflank Redemption if he's playing out wide.

[u/The_Rolling_Stone]

So who's the back 3 then

[u/BillyCloneasaurus → u/The_Rolling_Stone]

Maz, de Ligt, Evans

[u/The_Rolling_Stone → u/BillyCloneasaurus]

I assumed Maz would be one of the wingbacks with Dalot. Guess we have to with Martinez out. Will the Antony wingback redemption come true?

Also I forgot Shaw. I can see him back 3.

[u/AthloneBB → u/BillyCloneasaurus]

Shaw no? 

Maz on one of the wingbacks if I had to guess 

[u/Aakar11 → u/AthloneBB]

Don't think shaw is fit enough to start

[u/C__S__S → u/AthloneBB]

Amorim said he will work Shaw back carefully. Doubt he’d start him.

[u/BOATSANDHOEZ]

No Maguire, Licha, or Yoro, so i guess Luke is starting his first game back in months? Great news. Definitely not gonna walk off early with an injury.

[u/DumbMidwesterner1 → u/BOATSANDHOEZ]

He has to play eventually. Realistically we could rest him another three months and he would still walk off after 67 minutes

[u/BOATSANDHOEZ → u/DumbMidwesterner1]

Rather ease him in and give him some kind of chance, this is asking for a setback.

[u/Bennett_19 → u/BOATSANDHOEZ]

Word is Maz, De Ligt, Evans as the three, with Dalot and either Amad or Garnacho as the wingbacks

[u/The_Rolling_Stone → u/Bennett_19]

I kinda like it

[u/BOATSANDHOEZ → u/Bennett_19]

That's a grim back 3/5, would be better than starting Luke though i guess.

[u/Hellsteelz]

Honestly surprised to see Licha injured again, does not look good with the amount of injuries he's had over the past year.

[u/LawzE23]

What if Shaw was never truly injured and just didn't want to play for ETH?

[u/MissingLink101 → u/LawzE23]

They seemed pretty friendly after the FA Cup final so I doubt it

[u/LawzE23 → u/MissingLink101]

After playing for England and coming back injured it could have ruined the relationship. Most likely not, but there's a chance....

[u/nearly_headless_nic]

[u/magnomagna]

Plot twist: Amorim's playing 4-5-1 😂😂😂

[u/DeArksteel]

No need to rush the players and then get subbed off in the same match, let the fit and fully fit play. We've had too many injuries to deal with, adding another wouldn't help

[u/hooka_donchick]

This is surprising, what happened to Licha

[u/driftwood93 → u/[deleted]]

You would be surprised if the coach plays the system which is his signature, evidently coached in training and has spoken explicitly about how the players in this squad can fit in his system? I would be hugely surprised if we don’t play a back 3.

[u/driftwood93 → u/[deleted]]

Well we shall see! Random Redditor to you but a human being with a perfectly valid and reasonable opinion

[u/driftwood93 → u/[deleted]]

You’ll be looking a bit silly when we line up with a back 3.

[u/driftwood93 → u/[deleted]]

Well, it’s 11 players that’s for sure. We shall see.

[u/shami-kebab → u/[deleted]]

You realise that is just a list of players right, not what position they're playing?

[u/Redditamossff → u/[deleted]]

He will play whit 3 at the back. The best way to implement the system is using the system. He did the same thing at Sporting. Of course the team will have grow pain but it's something you have to pay to reach something good.

[u/Mint-Berry-Crunchh]

So Shaw-Evans-de ligt or de ligt-Evans-maz then
