messi11 Posted October 23, 2022 Author Share Posted October 23, 2022 (edited) This is where I am with the new manager If we cant get our realistic first choice which is Amorim then we should just keep Aaron Danks in charge until the World Cup then assess after. Hopefully we can Ruben Amorim tho. PSG are sniffing about. Edited October 23, 2022 by messi11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ciggiesnbeer Posted October 23, 2022 Share Posted October 23, 2022 Ignoring the silly twitter media inventions for a moment. Hopefully today gives us some more leverage and time to bring in one of our top manager targets. Exciting times! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree and he favours a 4-2-3-1, however reading the reddit article on Amorim posted earlier I think with a couple of Jan additions e.g. another ball playing CB (Ignacio?) and potentially a more athletic LB we would have the squad for either manager Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All this talk of Amorim not playing wingers. Does he not mainly play a front 3. I’m pretty sure Trincao is a winger and he was playing last night.

Sam3773 Posted October 23, 2022 Share Posted October 23, 2022 Interesting that our team selection leaked 24 hours before the game, yet the step-by-step guide our new manager supposedly handed Danks, along with the new manager’s identity remained a secret. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guessing one of the coaches or players leaked the selection info to the press, but the manager situation hasn't been announced internally yet and is still being handled by Sawiris, Purslow, & Lange directly.

True, but historically has also heavily used a 4-2-3-1 so may just be adapting to what he has at his disposal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
