Dadashov next according to Leach
That would be 4 strikers for the new season

2 rwb

2 keepers still

So that's all sorted

1 lwb
1 attack mid

Are musts

Always chance Jones and jobello learn the AM role in box I guess?

Possibly 1 cb but Drysdale and Williams may be seen as good enough back ups perhaps

Migjt not be that much left to do. Although if they do more that is fine by me too! Probably have to sell for that though

Just a point for discussion, could not should, isn’t that what websites are for ? There were a couple of likes too.
Dongo a modern term then?

Next season is going to be difficult enough without lumping L1's best RB into a random position.

Would you cut off your foot to see if you walk better with a stump?

Honestly presumed that it was just trying to "make some point" that the rest of us are to thick to "get".

Don’t know too much about him, but I think he will surprise us. And most importantly I trust MR and Badlan. It’s also great to see us doing business so early and making use of the extra time we have over other Championship teams.

Maybe he isn’t a guaranteed starter and he could be more of a squad player, but so what. That’s a good thing; we currently have one recognised RWB (Dabo) and one LWB (Mason); Dacosta can play both. Even if we sign another LWB (which I think we will), the point remains.

Looking forward to seeing him play.

somethings are so far away from a point of discussion they out you as being a complete moron by the mere utterance of them.

Should I put my bollocks in the blender?

This forum is super against trying players in new positions to an almost autistic level. I’m not saying Dabo should play DM, but I got a similar response for saying Pask could play there or Westbrooke could play RWB in a pinch.

I don’t think suggesting a position shift deserves the ridicule some on here put out. I imagine they’d have said the same to someone suggesting playing Dublin at CB the first time.

Never said he would, asked could not should There was a bit of a debate going on where Dacosta might fit as he is a right back. Amazing how some on here don’t read a post properly.

Can flip that though

Why do certain posters always literally think outside the "box"?

It can become silly. I am all for hearing someone out but every single season we need someone's specialist position changing it seems?

I am happy to have these discussions once ina while but not every season and nothing to suggest Dabo in midfield. Maybe if we had a robins soundbyte about his positional instinct to tackle blah blah or something

I think it’s as valid as any other team selection discussion. It may be a good idea or a bad one, but it’s hardly worth less as a thought than “I wonder what the players look like as girls” or whatever. And it’s always in response to either an injury leaving us short or trying to fit in two decent players.

That I agree with. Give me this discussion over cov players as girls lol

Like i said if itd warranted I am happy to talk about it. I don't really see player of season being moved position but i guess it is a funny old game

If we sign many more frenchies, we'll have to change the song:

Chantons ensemble,
Allez Sky Blues,
Si nous chantons ensemble,
nous ne perderons jamais,
Tottenham et Chelsea,
United et tout le monde,
Ils ne nous battrons pas,
Nous nous battrons jusqu'à ce que le jeu soit gagné
That would be brilliant if our fans learned that and belted it out at games.

So you think suggesting Dabo at CM is a valid suggestion

Fucking hell, make a point but comparing forum debate to autism is a dick move even for you

On point, it's about sensible discussion though, pask at CDM makes sense due to his abilities but dabo in central midfield is a nonsense that quite rightly got laughed at which I'm guessing was the original poster's aim

Id say that suggesting Trent Alexander Arnold at CM is a reasonable suggestion so saying another RB could play there isnt that far fetched. Granted TAA is suggested as an option there due to his technical attributes, whereas Dabo's main strengths are probably physicality and aggression, although he has shown really good technique and has an excellent picture of the game in his head, and physicality and aggression arent exactly a bad thing in the middle of the park.

I wouldn't play him at CM purely because he has performed so well in one of the most important positions on the pitch in our formation, but wouldnt say him playing CM is a bad enough call to be shot down the way it has when its clearly just a throwaway idea.
