If anybody is going to be anchoring a diamond its Allan
Its what he does
Perhaps Decoure on the left, Gbamin anchoring and Allen right, sometime this season. Much more solid defensively
same with the attack, getting the ball to the forwards
the more breakdowns, the more the opp can't get the ball through the midfiled, the more quality ball to the forwards, the more the opp goes on the back foot
Allan can play right mid, playing to the box,
working the play with RB, RF
waiting, looking for the chance at an assist, goal
The current build for me is 1 weaker link on the left to go with Digne and Richarlison
1 weaker link on the right to go with Allen and whoever is brought here from either RB or RF
Well, hopefully they'll get that far this season, anyway.
Width and threat from both wings.
Chances for players.
Interesting to see if Gomes would play 10 in a diamond, rather than Hames
with a free role to journey anywhere and distribute the ball
with Hames a free attacking role to mirror Gomes.
Ahh the possibilities! It all gets down to a solid midfield
