Fwiw Smith mentioned Kodjia was making him consider playing with two up front towards the end of last season. Not sure that means anything beyond he was considering it, but we have a few players now who are arguably better in a two. So maybe he is going to put it as an option for us?

PieFacE Posted July 21, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted July 21, 2019 (edited) Well Smith has recently said that we now have the option of playing 3 at the back, so there will be opportunity to go 2 up top if we switch to that formation. Wouldn't surprise me if we started a few games with 3-5-2 formation in pre-season. Steer Engles - Mings - Konsa Guilbert -McGinn - Luiz -Targett Jack Wesley - Hogan(lol) Would be interesting to try that with a better striker than Hogan...

skarroki Posted July 21, 2019 Share Posted July 21, 2019 I don't think we will be bringing in a striker even in the scenario where Hogan leaves. Davis is looking very good in training and preseason and would be good enough as 3rd choice striker. Adding a 4th in there would add great competition but then you'd expect Davis to leave and I'd rather have some more continuity from last season than another exciting link Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJ Posted July 21, 2019 Share Posted July 21, 2019 I opened up this thread this morning, and saw there was 10 + pages. I was excited. I thought we must have signed someone! Nope. What we got was Daniel Sturridge, Welbeck, posters arguing about who has the most boring posts, gifs, Sting puns, and who Bournemouth are signing. Well and truly sucked into the six degrees of speculation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SirSteveUK Posted July 22, 2019 Share Posted July 22, 2019 Apparently, according to a disreputable rag, Brentford have "slashed" their asking price for Maupay Brentford are no mugs - they don't need to sell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skarroki Posted July 22, 2019 Share Posted July 22, 2019 As a discussion point and not suggesting it could / would happen. IF Bale leaving Madrid meant we had a chance to bring him in on loan for a season, would you sign him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
