Finally, someone has whispered Frank’s ears that Christensen is not good enough to be our CB at this level. I hope someone also whispers to him that Jorginho is not also good enough to be our holding midfielder at this moment. I prefer Kovacic to be sitting there and supported by two attack-minded players. one way to play is to move Pulisic to the no 10 positions and draft Hodson Odoi in on the wing. if we are to be playing with Alonso I would move Willian to the left to assist him defensively. or move Azpi to the left-back and bring on Reece James at right back.
There is no way we should be sitting and looking to defend against Liverpool, simply because we are not good at that. so let us do what we good at. i would go for 4-2-3-1, Reece – Rudiger – Zouma – Azpi, Kovacic-Barkley, Odoi – Pulisic – Willian, and Giroud up top.
