How would Can be still marking Lukaku when he would be playing in Lucas roll ?
The answer is he wouldn't be marking him. The CB that BR brings on would be now marking him or Sakho.

I'll say it one more time Muppet.

THIS WOULD NOT CHANGE THE SHAPE OF THE TEAM.

------------
I see you've never played or prepared for a game.

1) can would have trained in preparation for this game to deal with Lukaku. He did it brilliantly today. As good a player as he will be, he didn't just turn up to Goodison today and got told "today you're marking Lukaku"

2) the best place to do that would be in the back line, where Lukaku would run the channels.

3) if Can would have played in a defensive midfield role ONLY due to an injury during the match, who would have picked up Lukaku? Can would have still been the one with the most preparation to do that.

4) thereby if he was picking up Lukaku, it would have changed the shape of the team as the DM slot would have been emptied at various times when Lukaku got the ball.

You should understand it now. If not, I suggest going out in the real world and playing football and not just playing it on the Xbox.

Can't believe this stuff has to be explained.

This is just proper juvenile xbox/fifa generation thinking.
I'd laugh, but you're actually being serious, showing a severe lack of tactical and match play knowledge.

Put it this way.. if you had been playing FIFA consistently on a Xbox and someone who did likewise but on a playstation, offered you a match on a playstation for a bet of a significant amount of money - would you take the bet?

I've never played on Xbox or play station mate. So your saying no other liverpool defender was prepared to mark a CF ?

You said it would change the shape of the team by moving Can to a holding roll and bringing on a CB.

It wouldn't change the shape. It would change who was marking Lukaku but not the shape of the team.


Fûck me your a Muppet.

Why would you want to change who was marking Lukaku when he had zero shots due to Can marshalling him brilliantly?

Hindsight can be 20-20, but in this case you're asking to fix something that isn't broken.

Like I said all too simplistic an argument that wouldn't work in the real world. Might work on paper; but football is played on the pitch, not on paper.

You're talking about changing the critical aspect of the game plan because Lucas got injured.

That's stupid.

Shown to be stupid seeing as Can V Lukaku worked brilliantly.

Wouldn't have changed the shape.

Thinking singularly, simply, no -

Do you think overlapping runs change the shape of a team?

LVG said if you take out the five goals Leicester scored, man u's defence is as good as chelsea's.

He also said the pitch and the referee were a reason why a £160m team couldn't beat league 2 Cambridge.

At least people like LVG tell it how it is.
