Maybe a tad, but you can see where I'm coming from, we would have to play Izquierdo due to his experience and (hopefully) quality, and then it's a toss up between Knockeart and March.

I would have March start ahead of Knockaert for the time being.
We all know March's quality and that was showcased on Saturday, Knockaert still coming back from injury. I also think March is better at decision making than Knockaert.

Iza ..yes I agree ..certainly be strange leaving our record signing on the bench
Gross will have cemented his place by the time Brown gets over his injury. Jose/knocky/Solly will provide 2 out of 3 wingers starting, with the other on the bench and Murphy as cover.
That leaves us with Murray, Hemed and ANOther up front, along with Baldock and Brown who'll be cover for Gross or second striker if we go 442 I guess.

We need the 3 amazing wingers and Murphy backing them up. 3+1 is needed for the 2 positions as people will miss games. When all fit it's a great poition to bring someone fresh on with 20-25 to go anyway so they'll get game time.
Hoping March stays fit as this really could be his year.

there really is, Brown offers an alternative 10 to Gross. Gross wont play every game.

He will when he's fit, in the league at least. I doubt we'll see him much in the cups but he'll play in the league games. Gross is on a different planet to Brown.

When you say "different planet", are you referring to the gulf in talent between the both of them?

Agreed, looking at him so far I have no idea how we managed to get him and so cheaply too.

Yes. Brown looks like he can do all the pretty tricks and flicks, but Gross is capable of spreading passes and setting up moves. He's a class act, as proven against Atletico.
Brilliant bit of business, and so early in the window as well. If this were a deal we'd have still been chasing, the fee would be £10million by now. We'll make a killing when we sell him in a year or two, league positions dependent.
It's also possibly the finest example of overrating March that's been posted so far, but there are plenty of other examples to compare it against.

Gross is the starting attacking mid. Izzy is in to cover all 4 attacking positions but particularly Gross' and importantly push Gross on so he has to work hard to stay in the 11
I think both will do a good job

Perhaps not but Gross has played the majority of his career as a centre midfielder and will be returning there if we get any more injuries or suspensions as he is probably 3rd choice now after Propper & Stephens. Brown is more than capable of shining as a number 10 when he returns from injury.

Both, March seems to know when to use pace or skill to get by a player. He then knows when to release the ball bwttwr...

Anyone know if he is training with the squad today? I'm assuming he is free to train, but not play?
I don't think he can train as that would be seen as working in the eyes of the authorities....Has to sit out...
Picture on the Open Training Session thread of him sat in the dug out in his casual clothes.
