As people have said, I don't think our defense was/is as bad (definitely isn't now with the signings made) as people have made out, it's the midfield in front of it and it hasn't been addresses one iota this window. It's a shambles. |

Tuanzebe is a very talented center back. But being good on the ball for a center back is totally different to the challenge of being in midfield. Ferdinand struggled when put in midfield. Tuanzebe will get his chance next to Maguire and I predict he'll have dislodged Lindelof by the end of the season. In midfield lets give a talented kid like Garner who is a natural that chance, or in home games against lower sides, Gomes. One of the problems we are having is keeping the ball. Gomes is technically top notch and his balance and nimble feet can help us. Who cares if he's a bit short?

Garner looks good, but isn’t ready yet from what I’ve seen of him. He looked a little out of his depth in terms of physicality against who ever we played in the LDV Vans trophy thing a few weeks back and in this league as we know it’s mainly about physicality and getting stuck in, the worry would be that even against the lower table sides it would be a big ask for him at the moment. Gomes further forward will be top imo and I can’t wait until he’s given a few chances to see if he’s ready for the step up, but not as a holding midfielder. |

He did play there for Mourinho near the end of his first season and looked good tbf. For me it’s about balance and we need to get the right kind of balance to get the best out of the midfielders we have, none of them are best suited playing deeper so having someone like Axel there could help. |
