2017/18 Ademola Lookman

[Goat]

definitely remember him playing three at the back at Hull a few times...

but aye, his 4-2-3-1 / 4-3-3 definitely is the go-to

I'd be happy with big Willy C

Ah right, I never really looked that much at his Hull time really.

 

[BlueToff]

Ah right, I never really looked that much at his Hull time really.

may have just been cos they were gash so he lumped as many defenders in as possible, mind

 

[tim cahill]

4-2-3-1 is his most used formation, followed by 4-3-3, he very rarely has played 3 at the back.

Really think he will buy Willy C and go 4-1-4-1 tho personally.

What would you do with Gueye/Schneiderlin then?

 

[Billy Dean]

I left Davies and DCL out of my ideal team to play with Lookman etc etc. I have rectified this and have now filled all positions with players who all qualify as "there is a player in there somewhere". The line up is - Robles, Holgate, Williams, Mori, Cuco, Klassen Besic, Davies, Lookman, DCL, Bolassie. Poor Ramirez only makes the bench.

If Marco can keep that lot clear of relegation he is well worth having.

There are several players in Ashley Williams

Can't believe he's cannibalised the Academy kids again...

Played 3 at the back plenty, can't see him doing it here at this stage given our options at CB. We've got literally two capable of playing in a back 3. But as BT said, would suit Lookman well.

Play none at the back please Marco, they are all tosh

Siggurdsson

Walcott Tosun Lookman

Will be interesting to see if Brands/Walsh are happy to go with this for a season and concentrate the likely more limited funds this summer on the defence/centre of midfield.

 

[Remember-the-name]

Welcome back, Ade.

 

[Tel001]

There is a tendency to talk players up when out injured let’s be honest.

Not by me and certainly not about bolasie

 

[dancing llama]

11 matches not 7.... It's a decent record as it is without having to make it look better....

574 minutes over 11 games (less than 6 and a half matches in total) not 11 matches... It's a great record as it is without having to make it look worse...

The problem is if one of them gets injured then we’ll end up with Bolasie or DCL on the pitch.

And people ask me why I don't believe in stats!

 

[Nyhus]

If Lookman is terrible, the entire U20 English side is terrible, because he was their best player.

Compared to a prem senior side, yeah, its a terrible team. Its a good junior team, but thats not the same. DCL was scoring for the u21, he’s not able to replicate that when playing senior football.

 

[Tel001]

In a 3-4-3, which Silva uses quite a bit, he'd probably be perfect on the left side of the three up top.

But we'll see.

3-4-3? If this is his plan then we literally need to buy 3 new CB... jags , Keane, Williams ? Can you imagine?
