Not sure about this line up. I really really donāt want to see the 4-3-3 unless Ozil is injured. I am hoping to see 4-2-3-1 implemented. It would be criminal to waste Ozilās talent on the wing to essentially accommodate Ramsey and Xhaka
As of today I would have a front 4 of Miki, Auba, Ozil/Ramsey and Ramsey/Iwobi.
I wouldnāt play Laca with Auba. I think people have read too much into this alleged Auba x Laca connection. Such is Aubaās quality he links up well with pretty any forward player. I donāt think thereās anything particularly special other than a vastly superior player facilitating a great poacher and vice versa.
We donāt rely on need Laca to start anyway, a classic trademark of Emeryās system is that goals always funnel to the CF. I think there would be enough offensive talent on the pitch between front 4 I stated and the offensive-minded full backs to blitz teams in the final third.
Iāve mentioned it before, I donāt see the point of ever starting Laca and Auba. Only time Iād like them to be playing together is if weāre chasing a game and need extra firepower up front otherwise I donāt see the sense in increasing the injury risk to our back up who is going to be vital in the early stages of the EL and other cup competitions.
With Laca we have a great chance to have an effective rotation at CF without there being too steep a drop off in quality whilst negating the effects of Thursday night football.
Iām curious to see what we do with Lucas. I want to keep him, his sale value would be minimal there no real point in selling. I think he showed well during his first season here and would be a good rotation/EL option on the wing
Two CDM at the base Torreira + Elneny for me personally.
Iām concerned about Xhakaās ability to evade the press, press effectively himself, ability to win balls and his awareness in the defensive third. What heās shown so far doesnāt fill me with confidence but that could change with proper coaching.
I feel Elneny is better rounded as a CM than Xhaka, he does every youād expect of a CM to a slightly above average standard and heās very energetic which, I feel, would be lead to more efficiency in controlling the midfield. Emeryās typical CM pairing has always been unglamorous, well rounded, hard workers doing the dirty work in midfield.
I donāt want to see Ramsey in CM. Emeryās systems have never been designed nor relied on goals from central midfield.
I feel he can unleash his attacking qualities better as part of the front 4 at either AM or wing. His energy would be very beneficial wrt pressing from the from the front and he can still make effective runs but without the danger of abandoning his CM partner
