    I'm not a fan. But everyone who has played centrally for us has struggled. Is it a system issue more than a player one? As in slots way of playing requires a more technical forward than either nunez, jota or Diaz?

      I've never understood why Salah never gets the nod in the centre.

        Yeah it is odd.

          It's a good point, not really sure what type of forward we need for our system.
          The only gracious way to accept an insult is to ignore it; if you can't ignore it, top it; if you can't top it, laugh at it; if you can't laugh at it, it's probably deserved.

            Because (and I say this knowing some people will find it controversial) he is so productive with goals and assists out wide. I know what you are saying though- we just currently lack someone to play up top AND score consistently.

            Prime Firmino would be mint in this team.

            His goal return was always decent but his ability to bring others into play as well was second to none.

              I have been saying this for ****ing ages.

              Move Nunez down the right, or bring Elliott in there

              Salah gets more of the ball and can lay it on. and probably doesnt need to run as much.

              Its like there is not actual threat on the right flank. Salah needs to be as close to the box as possible.

                He is not really producing anything "out wide" though, is he?

                Its only when he gets into the box that he actually has any product. Being that he is not running the ball in from a wide position, he is wasted there, imho.

                      Especially as he's so good at holding up the ball and bringing others into play.

                        Would've been worth experimenting with tbh.

                        Problem is we have no other good option on the right other than Elliott. Diaz, Gakpo, Chiesa and Jota are all LW generally.

                          Moving Salah to the centre and giving him a two year contract and buying whatever sort of player Slot wants for the right could be a solution that solves a couple of problems.

                            Chiesa can play any of the front three positions

                              Clearly Slot doesn't fancy him.

                              He'll be gone in the summer

                                Shame he was utter garbage against Plymouth - that game has really set him back & this is coming from someone who really hopes he succeeds..
