Sorry how many do we need ?
Looking at our first pre season game, of course it's hard to judge without Cabaye and Tomkins playing but if we are to play that 3-4-3 formation most of the season. Then how many do we need?

Gk
Rwb (1 or 2)
Cb- (2)
Cm-
Rf/lf
St-

7 players for squad or is that overkill

think we are after a RB def, a CB def, too many transfer links, GKs have been mentioned, two particular so yeah.

CM hasn't once been mentioned nor striker nor other wingers. Would be interesting if we go for any forward positioned players.

He may think that Cabaye can play as that number 10, the little striker playing off of Tekkers, who knows..so with that in mind, Wickham is the back up Target man, cabayes back up would be whoever replaces the possibly outgoing McArthur.

Sorry just posted this in wrong thread!

Yes wing back would be a great signing. Can see why we're potentially interested in George van der Weil.

Can also see how Munri el haddadie would be a good striking option as he can play in any position across the front three.

I believe JR has been brought to play as left wing back but maybe just as a squad player and or cover for LCB.

I think we're serious about Martins Indi which will make a massive difference compared to today's outtting. Damo is a legend but he'll be to exposed.

So....

If we can get a keeper,
Bruno Martins Indi as left CB.
Chambers as right CB (if not Tomkins should be able to do it)
GVDW as right wing back
Munri as a forward option

I'll be very very happy.

That's five more signings so probably won't all happen but maybe if one or two are loans.

If we play 3-4-3 then we definitely need a right-wing back, but in those positions you really need someone with pace (it's a pity PVA or Schlupp isn't right footed).

In terms of centre backs, you have Tompkins, Jairo plus one other. Could Dann fit into being the centre of those 3 ?

A new keeper (ie. Clissen) would be good, but I feel another centre forward is badly needed.

I think it depends on the system that de Boer goes with if we continue with this 3-4-3. We don't have an adaquate Rwb so would need 2, our defenders don't suit it maybe without the exception of dann and Tomkins. We need defenders that if there pulled out wide they're comfortable and Delaney certainly isn't. I thought Benteke was too isolated yesterday despite a 3 man forward line.

1. In my humble opinion, Townsend is not a wing-back as he struggles defensively in this position.

2. As for Delaney, the last thing he wants is to be drawn out of the centre and exposed on the flanks in a one-on-one situation.However I don't expect him to start and one would think his appearances will be limited.

3. Yes Benteke was isolated, I think because Liverpool had the possession and control of the game so we never really threatened in the final third although we had our moments.That said I thought he could have been more physically imposing.At times we had 5 at the back with our wing-backs pushed deep and had trouble getting up the pitch with Liverpool employing a 'High press'.Certainly our defenders weren't comfortable playing out rom the back !

Lots to consider for De Boer and his team and if they haven't already will undertake a deep analysis of the game/performance etc. Yesterday's game might have taught them a lot !

This is a worrying development as far as I am concerned.

We all have our opinions of course but to my miniscule mind, Puncheon has been a big disappointment for a while and we should have been looking to show him the door.Staggering decision as far as I am concerned.

I agree , he's been great for us and is a leader but he's been missing in too many games. I was hoping this would be the season we improve our attacking midfield options! It will be very disappointing if we don't.

I agree to me our biggest need is a creative no.10. Yesterday showed yet again that if our wingers are stopped we have nothing going through thd middle. Puncheon is just too slow, seems to wait until he gets the ball before deciding what to do with it and then gets dispossessed too easily. Having said that, if we are really playing 343 shouldn't wilf and Andros play further infield, just behind benteke?
