I don't understand why everyone talks about signing wingers when Emery didn't employ that at all. Tielemans had his worst season at Leicester last season playing 6. His best seasons were playing more attacking 8 with Ndidi behind His best season was playing along side Ndidi that’s kind of how a double pivot works , like I said we would have seen already. We’ll see different variations of Emery’s systems this season sometimes with Bailey and Diaby on the pitch one as a striker out possession then providing the width on the flank in possession, we’ll an attacking fullback on the right from time to time and a back 3 every now and again sometimes we’ll play with 2 attacking fullbacks. The one thing we won’t be doing is exposing Tielemans weaknesses by expecting him to defend that flank out of possession. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As much as people blew their collective load over Coutinho last game he looked like he was running in custard at the end. He won't live with PL pace playing like that.

Had high expectations because of the price tag but I think we will miss him more than people suspect We will absolutely miss him loads, this is a huge wake-up call for anyone who doesn't rate him. His movement and passing are so important to the way we play, unlocking space for others and pushing us forward as a unit. We will not look the same in attack without him 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Likely to be Kamara, Dougie with Tielemans pushed forward and McGinn and Diaby with Ollie up top. Though just as likely he'll throw Philogene a start.

MackHaakon Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 Very bad injury news, again. He is a creator and a goal threat , but also a very important part of our press. We don't have a good replacement atm. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting that we’ve experimented with different systems during the pre season but not once seen Tielemans, Luiz, Kamara and Mcginn on the pitch at the same time, we’ve seen Luiz , Mcginn play central together, Tielemans, Luiz, Kamara Tielemans, but not once seen Tilemans play the Ramsey and Mcginn role z Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's versatile but I wouldn't class him as a Kamara 6. Dougie wasn't playing holding in double pivot last season to go with what you're saying. We could easily accommodate all 3 with Luiz or Tielemans occupying Ramsey role Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MachoFantastico Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 Massive blow for Emi and the club, really think he was going to play a massive part for us this season. ACL injuries can be really nasty too, so hoping he can make a good recovery. Not the news we wanted to hear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
