Nope. We are talking about the same position. Call it inside right if you like though.

So, as I described then. The position employed by KLL / Buckley on Saturday.

Ah, so you don't go to games then. Got you. I'll remember to ignore your opinions.

All the reports from the Maccabi Tel Aviv fans and the Spanish media are that he is very comfortagble and very committed to his philosophy, of 433. I can't see him changing it, except late in a game as a reaction - when a gamble is required. Minor details BG. This discussion was about whether...

WTF. I suggest you read the thread back through, petal.

I agree with you to an extent on that. IF oscar chose to play 442, with two proper strikers, THEN there would absolutely be a case for CMS alongside Ulloa. He won't though, and in the event of just one up front, the choice is undoubtably Leo >>>>> Barnes >>>> CMS.

Right. 1. I'm not comparing him to Defoe. Someone else suggested Defoe. 2. I actually DO rate CMS as a decent Championship striker. For the right team / system. Which is not us. I'm saying that CMS up front in OUR system (with one up front) would be hopeless. It would work less well than with...

CMS might, as Bens Grandad suggests, get a game or two in place of Buckley / Lua lua in one of the wide roles. He is really not a good enough player to convince Oscar to completely re-draw his philosophy and system. Never going to happen. And even if it ever did, Barnes would be better...

Defoe, ratty little scrote that he may be, has finishing ability approximately twenty times better than CMS. Did you see Defoe's two finishes in Spurs European game on Thursday? CMS scores the occasional great goal, but could only dream of tidy, reliable finishing like that. Johnson is quite...

So you say you disagree with my assesment (which is that CMS is very far from 'the perfect striker for our system') then go on to say that you'd have to play him somewhere else to get him a game. Got it.

To suggest that CMS is 'shit' is fairly idiotic. To suggest that he is the 'PERFECT striker for our system' isn't far behind though. The role of the ONE striker Garcia plays is to be strong in posession. To win the aerial balls. To lay it off to the wide support men. To hold it at his feet...
