Quote from: Matt Collins on July 10, 2017, 10:55:37 AMIf we are going 352 then we need more centre backs and centre midfielders and fewer wide players and full backsSo eg Jedinak and whelan as DCM, plus Lansbury, hourihane, Thor and Lyden as the other options. Happy I let Tshibola and Gardner go Chester Terry and baker plus (Richards? Elphick? Can bree play there? Even Taylor? Jedinak? De Laet?)In a back three, having someone who can also play full back is really helpful as it gives more balance (e.g. Azpilcueta, Staunton, etc)I could definitely see Jedinak dropping into a back three if we go with that formation. Could be something like: Johnstone Chester Jedinak TerryEl Ahmadi Whelan Taylor Lansbury Hourihane Kodjia Hogan
