Jimenez will be a bigger miss to Wolves than Martinez will be for us (I think). They don't score many goals.
-
If Leon Bailey does play left wing back and plays well there then we have the makings of one hell of a team, we really do. A 3-5-2 with Bailey and Cash as the wing backs and Buendia playing just behind the striker is the stuff dreams are made of.

Agreed but 50k a week for a back up keeper is an insane amount of money. I don’t think we’re there yet. Much more sensible to get a young keeper in who is competent and happy to learn from Emi on 5-10k a week.

Anyone coming here to try and compete with Emi isn’t going to play much.

I think the obvious area we could improve on is left wing back if we persist with the 3-5-2 (Unless we have plans to plan Bailey there). I like Targett, but think he's suited more as a left back than a left wing back. Maybe a reserve GK aswell. I still think we'll go big on a central midfielder in the Summer.

And the fact he was a burly centre half at Walsall doesn’t exactly scream ‘glamour’. I love Dean Smith. I’d love him even if he had been sacked after we lost to Leicester a couple of seasons back and he was on the brink. He’s given us this club back and if for whatever reason he does leave and the next manager continues with the progression, let it be known it was Dean Smith who built the foundation for success. What he’s done for this club can’t be underestimated, regardless of the backing he’s had. He made us believe again.
-
It really would. I thought he looked a bit tired against United at times. We have lots of options so it’s important we rotate him as well to avoid burnout.

Thoughts on this? Martinez Konsa Axel Mings Cash Luiz McGinn Targett Buendia Bailey Watkins

A valid point tbf
-
I wonder if we’d be a better side with Buendia playing as a 10 behind Watkins/Ings in our current formation? Personally, I’d have him behind Watkins, but it’s a tough call to leave Ings out.
-
One thing I will say is, you can’t keep dropping him after he puts in a good performance. He’s going to want to leave if we do that. Time and time again, he comes in, plays excellently, and is then immediately dropped. Personally, I think he keeps his place in the 3 if we persist with this formation. He’s not as quick or as good with the ball as Tuanzebe but he’s stronger and better in the air. I guess you could play either or depending on opposition but he’s not going to sign a contract if he keeps being benched.
-
How very dare you.
-
Maybe Ramsey and Ings benched and Buendia and Bailey in?
-
What a legend this bloke is. Never lets us down and the best player we have in the air at the club. In a 3-5-2 I’d have him in there everytime ahead of Axel because he doesn’t lose anything in the air and he’s also a massive threat from set pieces at the other end. Really likeable character and a fantastic squad player. We should be giving him a new deal.
-
I think we’re all glossing over the main issue here.. How the hell does he fit Trezeguet into this side?
-
He’s been superb this season. Absolutely superb. I had my doubts as to whether he truly belonged at this level but he absolutely does and then some on current form.
-
How does he fit into a 3-5-2 I wonder?
-
Deano doing the business yet again. I wonder if the Grealish transfer has somehow helped him a little too. He can play different formations and play different systems where everything doesn’t have to go through Jack.
-
He’s been superb all season. Fantastic improvement from last season. Turning into a very good player!
-
Just wants to be careful. He can’t put in many performances like that and expect to keep his place when we have Buendia, Traore, Bailey and Archer to pick from.
-
I knew this was coming . Luiz and McGinn have started so well this year, they’re superb in there and Ramsey (although poor today) has been excellent. Long may it continue!
-
He’s a class full back. Best we’ve had since Luke Young. He actually reminds me of Luke Young, only, he’s better going forward.
-
What a win. Unbelievable performance considering some of our players didn’t actually play that well?! McGinn and Luiz have been immense all season, as has Cash. Can’t wait to see how good we are when Ings and Watkins actually click..
-
Both had poor games, but we’re playing well!
-
He’s not doing it at the moment. With the amount of talent we have on the bench, I’m surprised he hasn’t been taken off.
