The deal is all done, that’s why Moyes is so confident. It will be announced this month at some point, using it to appease fans if other signings don’t happen. TFG have found Bullshooter Bill’s guide to transfer window handbook.

Anything less than you being 99.99999% sure worries me.
And a verbal agreement is not acceptable either.

Our most underappreciated player since Lukaku for me, hope he gets credit for being the leagues best player this week.

If we ever give him a suitable partner in the middle, look out.

KDH at the 8 is perfect IMO as long as we’re dead set on playing a midfield two

The balance is ideal with KDH & Garner. If i saw this in 2023 why cant Moyes see this and insists on using KDH as a 10.

It infuriates me.

What about the balance of Tim-Garner-KDH, or Garner-Tim-KDH?

You can only hope it's because he doesn't see another player in our squad that adequately fits the role.

Get rid of the fancy named formation.

You have to start every game with KDH & Garner as 8s. Thats the foundation.

From there we can go with a 10 (Alcaraz), another 8 (Iroegbunam) or a 6 (Armstrong).

I posted the below in the armstrong thread. See if you can decipher it.

Basically it doesnt suit anyone to play 10. It just benefits Grealish and rarely Ndiaye.

1&2: A traditional 10 is different to what is classed as a 10 thesedays. There arent any traditional 10s in the league yet when you watch the games the player behind the CF is called a 10.

3: Not sure if others have picked this up but the reason we use KDH as the 10 is because of Grealish. Grealish slows the play down and attracts two or even three opposition players.

There needs to be a runner to go past the defence for Grealish to pick out. Ndiaye playing 10 for Sheff Utd was a different role to how we use a 10 hence why that experiment failed as he doesnt run past the opposition defence.

KDH does this as does Alcaraz. Thats why those 2 can play 10 in this system.

Why do we do this? Its so the opposition being dragged across to those two players and leave Ndiaye 1v1 on the right.

I HATE this for three reasons;

A: KDH is an 8 and has been motm or around there every game.

B: Alcaraz cant be constrained by these tactics, it doesnt suit his natural game.

C: I like quick football and it makes no sense to me to be reliant on a left winger to slow the play as a main tactic. Nor does it suit either player we use as a 10 to fit this system.

4: Yes it seems clear to me as well that we should go with a 433. Exactly as you say with Armstrong 6 & KDH + Garner ahead of him as 8s.

Super balance and with this 6 in play our midfielders should be closer to the front 3. For this system we need pace at the back with at least one of O'Brien / Branthwaite at CB.

Iroegbunam could also be an option of course, just needs to improve his passing and perhaps positioning.

Rohl i hope we sell in the summer.

Not sure I need to decipher it.
