Lads I think we need to be more fluid, we need more players capable of playing different positions, there might be a time for a old fashioned 442, there might be times for a 442 diamond, other times we need to play a 433 in some way or another. It depends on which low block we need to demolish, or which Champions League team we are playing but then again if we just find something that works every game we need to stick to it but we still need that threat of being able to change it up. Cause otherwise we will be found out in the long run, teams will learn how to combat our tactics.
I´ve been pretty vocal about what kind of profile I want as a forward for us, it´s basically any top target that can play over the front three or more positions.
No player can own any position unless he delivers over 20-30 goals and assists per season in the league, I actually want more to be honest. 20-30 goals and assists should be the minimum for a forward in the league.
We are pretty certain to get Diomande, we are so advanced in the talks I don´t see anyone else stepping in unless we give up and I do not think for a second that we will give up. If Leipzig wants more money that money will come in clauses such as winning the Champions League.
I can see him and Wirtz having a understanding on the wings actually. Diomande being more direct as a right footed winger on the right and Wirtz more of a playmaker left. In theory you can not leave one of them unattended and that would stretch any defense.
Then Munoz seems like a excellent squad player for now, he is one of the fastest in Spain, likes to dribble. I can´t remember another youth player that has attended both La Masia and Castilla and then gone on to say no to both of them and fight for his chances at a smaller club. I reckon his determination is out of the roof but we need to show patience with him, he is gonna look like Nunez in front of the goal.
