Re: Keep Right on Podcast
ThrillhouseRight now I think this is what CD is picturing in his head:
Beadle
Bright/Laird - Neumann - Klarer - Cochrane
Doyle - Paik
Fujimoto/Thor - Stansfield - Gray
Kyogo
Two key things:
1. I love Iwata, but I don’t think he’s undroppable. Ultimately I think Doyle gives CD a third option he trusts, which is the important thing. You’ll see more rotation I think in that central area than last season; I just don’t think CD trusted Leonard to do what he wanted, hence the flogging of the nice Asian lads. So it’s a fun problem to have. Far cry from Sunjic and Gary Gardner!
2. Due to the way CD’s system positions itself with the right wing back providing all the width and the right winger occupying the half space, I think Bright is there to share minutes with Laird, rather than to primarily be a winger. Take the pressure off both of them as it’s a ridiculously demanding role.
Having spelled this out, it does look like we could use another 10/inside right forward.
I agree with you on the line up and the points you make. Fujimoto tucked in off the right hand side allowing him to dip in onto his left foot with the width outside him.
