Surely be to God he isn't asking Gnonto to play wing back?

Must be 4-3-3

Good subs, but we need to step it up and stop sitting back

Is Farke headed for a tonsure?

Off day for Aaronson, James got better after a very dodgy start. Good game from Tanaka

This game is just how I imagined it would be, Brighton comfortable in possession and because of our injuries we are looking slightly disjointed.
Let’s see if the subs make a difference as in the last game.

He's a box to box midfielder

I expect if you compared his passing creative stats to someone like Aaronson Ao comes out on top.

I wouldn't be shocked if his chance creation isn't far off Stach and he takes corners and set pieces.

Ao is probably our most progressive player imo
Yeah thats a good point, would say though that as a box to box midfielder his defensive game is weak, be interesting that comparison, will have a look after the match. Tanakas key passes are in the 89th percentile per 90 for prem which is outstanding as are his crossing stats so guess its about balance for farke. If he was great at everything wouldn't be at Leeds right now (hopefully would be in future :lol: ).

Not sure Rutter is a "boo" player, but not really deserving of over the top fanfare either.
