Hugo Ekitike - Welcome to LFC

[rudedog]

I think with Frimpong offering actual width and pace on the right we'd see a lot of interchange between the rest of the forward line. Isak played a lot of games for Newcastle starting on the left and like i said that would just be a way of getting him on the pitch in our current system which I doubt we'll be using next season.

Was going to say the same, I think we will see various combinations depending on who is available and who the opposition is.

[Doc_Piptorious]

Agree but he's on a huge contract so that won't be easy.

Think we will try and play both next year and take a good offer for either when they come in. Hopefully Isak at this moment.

If Ekitike continues as he has started for us, and if he is happy with us, then I doubt any bids would be entertained. He and Wirtz could be deadly together within the same team for the next five or six years.

Nobody predicted he’d be this good.

If they did stay togther that long you would be talking Daglish/Rush Numbers.

Makes two of us!

I reckon a 4222 formation could be the future

Mac and Grav in midfield, Dom and Flo attacking midfield, with Ekitike and Isak up top

Width coming from full backs. Maybe a sale of MacAllister and the purchase of a more defensive player would make this even a better option

I don't know how often 4222 is ever used, but it feels tailor made for our team

Frimpong and Kerkez would almost play like wingbacks with a pure DM next to Grav/Macalister that drops back into defence if needed

All feels a bit FIFA 19 tho 😁

[Charly]

Back in my kickoff2 days, I made a tactic I called 4-4-4. One of my mates got upset because he thought I was playing with 13 players on the pitch.

Ekitike thread down on page 3. Bump.


New Fernando Torres my arse. Has been poor the last few games imo. Last night v PSG he did **** all really......infuriating when he lost the ball easily after good work from wirtz and equally infuriating thst he didnt slip kerkez in easily and instead bombed the ball wide and high.

Complete loss of confidence paired with inept tactical direction. It’s not just him. I’ll reserve judgement until we get a decent coach.

Yep no Torres MKII yet - he can't hold the ball up to save his life, and just needs to get stuck in a bit more at times

I think he's been poor for a few weeks now, that shot instead of the pass to Kerkez was just symptomatic of his poor play and bad deceision making.

[Rich]

I worry about his general attitude. I don’t think he’s proper LFC material regardless of talent.

Definitely a bit thick.
