I'm wondering if we might change back to a back four soon, which might change my mind on a midfielder requirement.
Aouchiche, in my opinion, is now fulfilling the Ramadani role. He covers a shite tonne of ground in a game, and is technically decent, if not brilliant. Not immensely strong in the tackle but doesn't shirk a challenge either. Secondly, I think Kjartansson looks like he might be a player. He reads the game very well, that much is obvious, and he reminds me very much of Jack (rat Hun cunt etc) in that midfield - positionally very good and so doesn't need to fly into challenges, and also covers the fullbacks.
I'm thinking a 4-1-4-1, with Aouchiche and Armstrong in front of Kjartansson, who drops in to help the defence when necessary.
A striker, then, might be the priority. Plus a fast as fuck wide player.
Done.
We could also have the back three, of course, in a 3-1-4-1-1, but that feels like too many numbers.
