Billy G. used to be a no. 10 before Lamps came in. Billys dribbling and passing Skills are way superior than Mounts. But Mount used to be a better goal scorer.

Billy can play higher up too but hes not the right option either. Just depends. I think Mount is becoming a bit jaded, hasnt scored in how long and his last assist was vs Burnley and while thats not a fair representative of his performances, hes played a lot of games this season. When Ruben comes back he will be a big plus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fernando 6,585 Posted December 1, 2019 Share Posted December 1, 2019 Yeah I thought we was toothless after Jorginho left. The problem we have is that after Jorginho we don't have a better option. He is the only one who is creative. After that the false 9 shows how woeful we are in the striker department. My priorities continue to be striker and cb, Lb. I might add now a replacement to the Jorginho. We don't have a replacement for him. No one can help us control the game like him. kellzfresh and Vybz Kartel 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mount has been underperforming for a while now and he gives him again a chance. Horrible decision. Pedro is not good enough anymore. Giroud is Giroud. Can't expect him to be on Tammys Level. I just hope Tammy is not out for too long Gesendet von meinem SM-G920F mit Tapatalk I would have giving him a chance. The problem was subbing Jorginho and not him. Other than that for rotation it was perfect to start him. But the issue is the striker department. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ironic thing about Jorginho is that even with him in the XI, we always seem capable of losing control of games easily - last 2 games the perfect examples.

Last two games because the man is over play. His form has taking a dip. And we don't have a replacement for him. That's why in the transfer window we should get another creative player like Jorginho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have Jorginho & Kovacic in the XI and sometimes we still allow games to get too frantic too easily when they should be controlling the tempo for us. Kovacic can play a similar role to Jorginho if we tweak the system a little. Buying another Jorginho-esque is a waste of money, particularly when we have someone like Gilmour in the ranks. If we're gonna get a midfielder, it should probably be a specialized defensive midfielder. communicate 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well if your going to play Kova in the role of Jorginho then okay, in that case play Kova and Kante as 2 midfield. Mount in the middle is not cutting it. I don't know if it's also a dip in form for Mount or he's better up front instead of mid. Because he used to do good in the position of Pulisic..... In that case then yes a DM would be good. But I don't think its a prioirty unless there's an option that is available in the window that you cannot let the chance go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mount has been doing fine in the No.10 position right up until the last game, where he was really poor. Otherwise, he's been the key figure in linking up the midfield and attack, setting off the pressing from the front etc. A dip in form from him is to be expected, after all he's only 20 years old.

Tomo 21,751 Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 One thing I really hope we bring back given our lack of threat in the air are short corners. I never understood why people got so upset when Conte started us doing them, it was the right thing to do as ever since JT and Ivan have been phased out we've had little threat from corners. As much as Willians delivery doesn't help, the main problem is who's in the box, get Beckham to take our corners and they will still be dealt with comfortably 19 times out of 20. Short corners are our best chance of getting any joy from those situations. Fernando 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When mount was playing where pulisic is playing. I thought he was doing that position greatly. Now he's part of the mid 3 with Jorginho and kovacic. But other than that yes agreed expected to have a dip in form giving that he's 20 years old. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Short corners are our best chance of getting any joy from those situations. However, we do have some players who are good at heading the ball. Tomori and Zouma are pretty good and have gotten close pretty much every game. A good delivery can also create chaos in the box, which is something that can result in goals. Cahill scored many goals from chaos in the box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you're overthinking this position thing for someone having a dip in form. Mount has been the No.10 when he's not playing out wide. And he's not even a wide player!

In an era where high pressing and midfield domination is key, those are the areas you have to look at first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
