Re-quinn1888:
I have noticed even before ( RatFace ) left, we were overran in the midfield with our 4231- same vs huns : teams have sen this and flood the mid - thus we loose control on the game and seriously struggle to break them down. 3-5-2 or even a 442 would be better. I’m sure Lenny will have seen this and make the changes required.

At present we have quantity over quality and with Broony reaching the 'veteran' stage of his career, we are very short of ball winners and 'bite' in the midfield, where we are lightweight and easily bullied.
The main positions we are looking at are well documented, but McGinn was a missed opportunity and we need to look for similar if Eboue is definitely not the answer?
Of the 'bigger' midfielders - Rogic is a luxury, Ntcham has lost his way and Bitton is a good squad player, but maybe too slow.
Under NL I would hope for more a lot more pace and power in the side when required and at least a couple of signings to compliment the great talent and quality already there.

If Lenny seen this then why didn't he change formation in the last 2 games.

As he said himself he just wanted to get over the line without changing the team too much.

4-4-2 would only be the same issue as we are sacrificing a midfielder to play up front? And still only having 2 in the middle of the park. 4-3-3 seems to be the ideal formation against them. Need 3 robust midfielders in the middle that can dominate their midfielders as we are too lightweight. Also playing Rogic in a 4-2-3-1 doesn't help either as it's basically a man down as he doesn't have the engine to track back and defend when we don't have the ball.
