Think his adaptability to play in different positions will suit Amorin. Might be a squad player, but that is still going to be important!

It’s going to take time for these players to get used to this system, whether they are here for the long or the short term!
We will see a bit of a shake up on Thursday… perhaps Ruben is eyeing that up as a β€œcan win” trophy??

I can’t see him not starting the Club Captain on his first game. For all of them this will be their chance to impress. Any that don’t fit the system might well be on the bench Thursday night…

No way is he starting without Bruno!

Exactly! I can’t see him changing the captaincy so Bruno will be in there and the others around him.
Other than that… I don’t have a clue! (Possibly Onana in goal 😬)

What we need are options in all positions and if Ruben can get that out of Antony then great news! It’s not only the starting 11, but having players to make an impact off the bench. We’ve not always had a smooth transition when making subs, hopefully everyone will know their job in this system!

If humans could fly, I think some of us would. But it probably takes the same amount of energy as running. So realistically, I think most of us would end up like pigeons & loiter outside of convenience stores instead of flying across the country.
