Possibly at Bournemouth but against City I reckon we need to be more pragmatic and having Moder will help bolster the midfield. He can get forward for set pieces and help defend them also.

You're right, but I was just responding to a question, and posed the best alternative (other alternatives are available too).

Buonanotte on the right, Adingra on the left, Joao Pedro just behind Welbeck, and Moder on the bench.

RDZ has said Buonanotte is not good on the right side, he is a number 10. He may still play him there but he drifts into the middle.

Or we could go for an old fashioned, straight 442 with a right footed right winger, left footed left winger - none of this inverted winger stuff - and two out and out big men up front, proper old school and see if that flummoxes Pep!:

———————Bart
Veltman - Van Hecke - Dunk - Igor
-Adingra - Gross - Baleba - Barco
———Welbeck - Joao Pedro
