I couldn't help but think to myself watching the Brighton v Chelsea disaster at the weekend, that Eden Hazard doesn't want to be playing out on the left wing does he?. How many times did we see him come inside and even at one stage, pop up on the right wing!.
I just wonder if our left hand side is going to be the real problem this season? The only player who has come out and said that he prefers to play there is Marko Marin.
With Mata, Hazard and Oscar now fighting to play through the middle, with us still being linked with Hulk who prefers to play down the right hand side and Victor Moses who is a striker, it looks like serious reinforcements should be tracked down for the left side of our attack.
Adam Johnson anyone?
What do you think? Am I looking into things too much or will this really cause us problems this season?
KTBFFH!

And what's wrong with marko marin?
ReplyDeleteI get that this blog if for such analysis, but surely our best buy this season has been Marin ..the few times I've watched him play he has been most impressive.
I completely trust RDM
I agree with the guy above. Even though it's too early to say he's our best buy I think Marin will make the difference this season. But then I also think Hazard is waiting for the season to begin to surprise us.
ReplyDeleteIn regards to Adam Johnson, he is really talented and has often changed the game just by coming on as a sub but Marin is more than capable of doing the same.
We are well covered one the left side. We have three players who can play there. Marin,Hazard and Mata. Don't forget that Cole loves to attack and ultimately add width. It's obvious to know that we are well equiped with players that can play in all three of the attacking midfield positions (4-2-[3]-1). Let's say the starters are Hazard one the left,Mata in the middle and Ramires on the right..sub Hazard with Marin who can also play right..sub ramires and you have Oscar,Hazard and Marin who can play there. Sub Mata and you have Oscar,Hazard and Marin who can play in the middle. RDM's has a variety of options and I don't see the need to sign more attacker. We should be signing a midfield general to dictate the pace of play,especially counter attacks and who must boss the midfield. Schweinsteiger is the perfect option but hey,that's just my opinion. I know we have Oscar to play that role but I'd rather see him play behind the striker in the band of the upfront.
ReplyDeleteGosh! Please excuse all those errors. It's 3am here in South Africa so I am rather tired.
