Remember when Robeto played Naismith as a false nine a couple of times...once against Arsenal IIRC. Imagine Ndiaye in that role.
Only difference being is that we had pace in that attack too with Lukaku out wide and Mirallas...and we also had...
I've wanted to see Ndiaye as a false 9 for a while. Just not sure we have the other players to make it work. Ideally you want a false 9 to be flanked by 2 wingers / forwards with pace who make great runs.
Aaaaand we're back. Probably best if he's out the team for a bit. Think I'd rather start Beto against better teams like Chelsea anyway. Not because Beto is good, just because he's unpredictable.
