The same people who support Enzo are those who want him and a No10 together and see no gaps in midfield with such a set-up

Ultimately we anti-no 10s who like to see 3 traditional CMs and no No10 are the ones vindicated

And if we must see a no 10, Enzo cannot be one of the two DMs behind him
I can only imagine how suicidal that would have been last night.

Enzo can have his flowers, he put in a good shift still but I never and never wanted him with just Caicedo. Maresca got that one spot on.

If you check, Joao Pedro made a run that made Vitinha start to leave Palmer to chase JP, expecting Beraldo to shut down Palmer

It's a standard move, but Beraldo did not cover Palmer as he was similarly distracted by JP, causing Vitinha to return to Palmer after switching his stance to chase JP, but by then Palmer already had the 5 yards to get his shot away. You can watch the video, also highlighted below what Vitinha was expecting Beraldo to do while he covers JP. Vitinha showed good pace and robustness in that move but was ultimately undone by the JP run causing a miscommunication with Beraldo

The main ghost worker is our CM than cannot be trusted in a 2 man midfield, but at least we made tactical adjustment to accommodate him with 2 DMs behind him
The last lines though.

Talked about keeping things compact by fielding a three man midfield but some folks talk say PSG no dey see opponent midfield play.

Baba,you can put 3 men in midfield and still get exposed if your full-backs and wide players aren’t locked in.

Dembele and co don’t wait for midfielders to string 10 passes.. The key isn’t numbers in midfield, it’s cutting passing lanes early and not getting dragged into unnecessary duels in central areas. PSG punishes overcommitment just as fast as they punish under-commitment…
How far gee?

Nobody died now. Death has happened a long time ago according to your friend Nnamdi Kanu cheesy

Either way, true or false, Kanu has something to talk about inside Kuje.

They might be better than last season...but those players are still mid table players.

The club itself doesnt inspire winning mentallity
It’s about quality of those players and I doubt they’re actually mid table players.

Kudus and Morgan won’t have problems playing for any of the top teams in the PL. Look at City, Liverpool, Chelsea and Arsenal, their are couple of players there they can dislodge from their positions.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Club World Cup Champions 2025-2029 by Griffon: 12:25pm On Jul 13, 2025
Thomas Frank is low-key building a tough team with Spurs.

After securing the transfer of Kudus on Thursday, they’ve launched bids for Morgan-Gibbs and Palhinha. If they join they’ll be a very different and solid side, then you have Thomas Frank who is a tough nut to crack.

I think am too senior man.

But, Maresca can just make us go mad by starting James in midfield.

I cannot can.
Then the positional indisciplined Gusto starts against Kvara and Doue?

Mbanu!

..................... Sanchez.......................

James... Tosin... Colwill... Cucurella

........... Caicedo....... Lavia..............

.... .................. Enzo...........................

.... Palmer....Joao Pedro... Neto....

If Lavia is not fit, play Santos.

Anyone thinking Enzo will be benched in this match is just deceiving himself. He is one of the first names on game day team sheet, unless injured or suspended.

Palmer's pass, JP's link up play, Neto's pace will be crucial for the route 1 counter attack football we gast deploy today grin
Replace the unfit Lavia with Santos and you have nearly my idea. Perfect!

You beat me to this that's why when analysing, context matters alot. PSG didn't need that game. As for Santos, I like his style. If the coach decides to play him, I'll be happy.

In fact, whichever way sha. In the voice of Scolari when he was here--"We have to win" grin
Didn’t see the game but I knew very well his stats from the game were outstanding.
