Lets leave Dm first with the current defenders can we successfully play a back 4
With a partner for Koulibaly and a new DM, we are good to go.

lol..

Paredes you have always wanted as matic replacement no longer robust enough to play DM..

Gana that the coach didn’t find useful to his set up now pursued out for refusing to wear gay flag..

Psg has the characteristics of playing 4 at the back .

Two solid Cb, three solid attack,

But chose to play 3-4-3 with a robust DM..

Guy man, you know how to make up things..
Paredes is just another CM in a two. Not the main DM. Paredes as replacement for Matic with the back 3 formation of Conte is very suitable, as Singapore1 has explained to you, you don't need a killer DM for a back 3. Context has always eluded you.

Yes Gana is being pursued for not wearing gay flag. Defying the executives with a new manager in charge who has no allegiance to Gana is enough for him to be frozen out. Gana seriously improved PSGs robustness and helped them to UCL final after several years of failure. I will throw away Jogginghoe for a 32 year old Gana right now. I have always been a fan of Gueye even when he got relegated with Villa. You will be mad to say Gana has not been a big improvement to PSG whatever the politics going on now. Watch players and assess them individually, their strengths and weaknesses and what they can bring to a team, not following hype or ignoring context


Ibime:
I like when people see beyond the obvious. . . such as this piece on Idrissa Gueye who could be a good signing for someone. . .

grin but they have robust mildfielder

Paredes, gana,

You always have them in high regard.

Why are they selling??
Paredes is not robust and Gana got pursued out for refusing to wear gãy flag. Gana has been carrying heavy load in that team admirably, with the front 3 refusal to do work.

exactly! Playing to the team's strength is the key after everything. I don't care the formation we use as long as it yield positive result. We can't afford to play 4 at the back this moment; we don't have the machinery.
You can also get rid of the teams weaknesses. Allowing a front 3 freedom who pay you back in goals is different from covering a DM who can't be trusted in one on one situations.

There is no part of Jogginghoes career that does not involve teams being rejigged to protect him from one on one situations, whether that is Italy and Sarri playing two robust CM/DMs in front of him or Tuchel playing back 3. The trade-off for altering a teams structure should be a specific strength he possesses like possession keeping and assists ala Pirlo. We have seen that his possession keeping means nothing to us because it always breaks down when the game is hot like under Sarri, and he does not have the long range vision of Pirlo, therefore replacement is better than cure.

PSG are officially using back 3 this season
PSG using back 3 because the front 3 don't do any work, so they need to pack men at the final phase after various overloads up the pitch caused by the front 3 allowing runners through. It's insurance policy against Messi, Neymar and Mbappes laziness, but that front 3 will pay them back in goals for the defensive laziness. Our own back 3 is insurance policy against our DMs sluggishness.

champions League qualification

Europa League win was with for at the back.. going unbeaten ontop.

Napoli scored the best goal of Thier life time at the 4 at the back.

All of them has one catalyst present. JORGINHO..

Others things you mentioned are your usual lies..

Ranging from Napoli played two DM , to Italy played 2 DM in front of jorginho to Italy played packing the bus..

Bla bla bla, same old lie been recycled EVERYDAY.
So you now celebrate UCL qualification after being hammered and disgraced severally in the season?

Nobody cared about Jogginghoe until Tuchel minimised his weakness with the back 3.

Italy have failed to qualify for World Cup after packing community midfield ontop Jogginghoe to sneak through tournament football

Jogginghoe cannot operate in an expansive team. Anywhere bodies are not tightly packed together, and there is space, Jogginghoe is an utter liability. Know this and know peace.

All these talks that we can't play 4 at the back with jorginho are just sakamanje with no proofs..

Man has played all his life in both club and country in a back 4..

If not anything, this 5 at the back is what we can't play with jorginho..
We saw how things were playing back 4 with Jogginghoe

I bind any spirit that wants to take us back to 6-0 and 4-0 losses,or parking the bus like Italy to get to penalties, or playing two DMs Infront of DM like Napoli

This time last year, I stated Jogginghoe will not smell top 20 in the next Balon d'Or to show his last year nomination was a fluke simply based on Donnaruma winning penalty shootouts for Italy and Kante winning UCL for Chelsea. This was met by much condemnation by Jorgisexuals who thought their one-summer fluke was here to stay at the top echelons of football. Today, most Chelsea fans want to see him gone.

When you know a player is crap, don't let hype change your opinion of him. It's not about being stubborn. He was crap yesterday, is crap today and forever.

With the Blues preferring to have a three-man defence and wing-backs, there is room for just two central midfielders, who as a result have a higher physical workload.

That perhaps explains why metronomic playmaker Jorginho - Best FIFA Men's Player and UEFA Player of the Year in 2021 after inspiring Chelsea to the Champions League and Italy to the Euro 2020 title - at times looks ill-suited to the style of play, forced into 'grunt work' rather than manipulating the ball and keeping things ticking over.
Joggingho wey 3 man defence dey help cover him escorting. How Jogginghoe been be when we dey play with back 4?

Dem say DM dey ill suited to work. Ekaite, come and see

With Yaya Toure being the engine and motivator of the team, when he heard that Pep was coming to city, he realised that his career was screwed for the second and last time.

Before 2013 Bayern has failed to win the league in 2 consecutive seasons. Yet a Juup with rug pulled won the treble setting the record points and smashing every team on his way to win the CL
Nonsense talk. Bayern was already 9 points clear when Juup was retired, with farmers they can play with eyes closed. Not every squad will down tools on a lame duck manager but City certainly did.

They pulled the rug from Juup and announced his successor in January 2013 and that didn't stop him from winning the treble by May 2013
Farmers league is not EPL where players can switch off and still win league. City stayed competitive in UCL under Pellegrini which are the big nights the players turn up for. Same with Chelsea last season after the sanctions, players downed tools in EPL and turned up only for UCL

Man City that Pep inherited was neck and neck in title race and looking likely to win it until the rug was pulled from Pellegrinis feet
in Jan with the announcement, and he stopped trying while the players stopped playing for him. Below are match week tables before Pellegrini was cãstrated.
