Cash will certainly play as pretty much a winger and I'd expect Digne to also push right up the pitch. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sidcow Posted October 8, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted October 8, 2023 If Digne has his crossing boots on we could be in business, but generally I'm never a fan of 3 / 5 at the back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maltesemike Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 Is this Unai’s first Derby? I can’t remember, regardless I’m sure he’s well up for it. 3 at the back looks interesting to me. UTV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rugeley Villa Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 I like that team and I’m digging the 5 at the back. Set up strong hit them on the break . We need to control that midfield today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The back three will slide across to allow one fullback to slot in while the other one bombs forward. And they'll alternate. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomaszk Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 I wonder, I wonder...if Konsa will move to whatever side Neto is playing on. Very tough player to stop but Ezri is the man to do it if anyone can. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tayls Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 Opportunity to rest Zaniolo as well. Hopefully he will be make an appearance later on so he can get his goal finally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very tough player to stop but Ezri is the man to do it if anyone can. So you could see Konsa moving to LB if Neto is on the right? No chance.

burchy Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 That line up allows us to shift across if either cash or Digne are bombing on, with Pau dropping in at left back and Konsa doing the same the other side, assuming Carlos plays centrally. Feel for Xaniolo as he played well mid week 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn’t keen when we signed Wright but he was tremendous for us. Think we signed him from Blackburn if I remember right. We got Charles from Derby who was decent too but a little slow. Forgot about Nelson , but he was another success . Southgate Ugo and McGrath at the back what a defensive line that was, with Bozzie in goal. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
