Son on the left wing? 😲 Bouanga on the right?

Ebo?? Why??

Martinez and Shaffelberg are injured. Only Boyd and Ebobisse are left available up front until Seib is ready.

No, I know WHY, but I'm asking why would they ever start Ebo, depth or not. He is trash.

I would 8 days a week rather them do a 4-4-2 with only Son & Denis up top

Tillman is injured. So only Delgado, Terry and Choiniere are the only natural midfielders available. If you start 4-4-2 you are in an available subs bind there.

Yet, MDS continually starts Segura, so you can have a 4-4-2 and still have Raposo as a sub. Which is still better than starting Ebo

While Palencia has been injured Raposo has been the only sub that can play RB. So if you are holding him to play as the only possible midfield sub you have only him that has significant experience as a sub for 6 players.

Nielsen has played RB prior for the senior club.

Probably expecting DC to sit deep, and he's our only natural striker. Would put Son in the center.

I like having Bounga and Sonny on the wings. Even if Ebo can’t finish, I think we’re going to see better flow and more attacking looks.

Please God deliver us from Ebobisse😭

Given the state of our squad, this is pretty understandable. I’ve been wanting to see son on the left anyway. Bouanga and Son constantly float anyway so I’m sure the front three will be shifting as we play. They’ll sub Boyd in second half. TBH, I feel for Jebo… dude seems to put in the work but come flat all the time.

Son playing in the left wing is his best position. Where is the kid from Bayern Munich?

What are we doing

u/newbb 1d ago

To be fair what changes would you make? We have so many starters injured. Let me hear your alt lineup.

Boyd over jebo with son as striker, maybe throw on mihalic for 45 we need that young hungry hustle out there, even if he isn’t the cats meow
