Hear me out, I'd go
GK Pickford
CB Thiago Branthwaite
CB Tark
CB Myko
LWB McNeil
RWB N-Patz
CM Garner
CM Onana
AM Harrison
AM Danjuma
CF DCL
I'd set up in a similar way to the villa game, but with myko as one of the CBs it keeps him away from any form of possesion in the oppos half and gives us an easy fi if it isn't working to switch to a 4. Mcneil can play that role and him outwide allows Danjuma to cut inside, same on the other wing. I felt the partnership with Onana and Garner was the best we have seen in the middle and at this point Gana is a hindrance, if they get over run we have enough players on the pitch to for Harrison to drop in. It would be very harsh on Doucoure but both he and Gana on the bench give us the options to change the system. Enough flex there to set up as a 343 and allow it to become something different out of posession.
