Guess Erik's starting 11 next season

Do not get how ronaldo starts at all, never a Ten Hag starter.

We can’t, like some seem to be showing, go into the season with McFred in the middle. There’s literally next to no point improving RB, RW, SC if the midfield is neglected. It’s where most of our problems stem from

At this rate, it ill be the same XI who started against Palace...
 
Its insane to me, that when we need a Right back, most posters here are perfectly fine with buying a talented CB(who played 4 games at RB last season), as next season's primary right back. Here's an idea, how about we play players at their best position?

We never learn, do we.
 
I would like drastic and brave changes in the squad, but this is the most likely scenario. Only De Jong.

If we get De Jong and just 1-2 more signings, this window would be a disaster. We needed 4-6 signings at the minimum this season. CB, RB, DM, CM, CF and RW.

Sadly this is true: City's bench could bet our XI last season

Edited your post for exactly how he would settup with Ronaldo.

This likely means that ETH sees the need to fill 2 positions (CB and RB). The wing-back position is the least important in football, so prioritising a CB makes sense from that perspective.

But yes, like you, I also hope to see someone new at RB.
 
God damn you lot are a miserable bunch :lol:

Most of you have like 1 new player in your lineups. The transfer window has just opened and most of the good players are on international duty.

We will bring in 3-4 new players at least this summer.

Are you living under a rock? Wing backs/full backs are arguably the most important position in the modern game.

Pep and Klopp have revolutionised the use of them and their importance in attack and retaining possession.
 
Hard one...any 11 from the below

Ddg

Dalot/new rb, timber/varane/harry, Shaw

Sangare/ DeJong/ McT/ Fred/ Bruno /VanDeBeek

Elanga/ sancho/ Rashford/ Ronaldo / new goalscorer or rejuvenated Martial

Dumfries... Timber... Varane... Shaw

Eriksen... De Jong... Fernandes

Antony... Ronaldo... Sancho
 
Very little will change I reckon

Doesn’t mean they will all go straight into the lineup though.

That's been the usual kind of number most years now, that's the Glazer way it seems.

Honestly I'm not so sure this year. I think on the back of that season it'll be extremely difficult to convince players at this point.
 
New and simpler challenge - how many new players in the starting line up?

I'm going for 2, with another 2 on the bench.

Every signing we make this summer will go straight into the first team and be one of the first names on the teamsheet, I'm sure of that much

Fred for Donny and that’s not at all unlikely, unless Donny is phenomenal in pre-season.

It’s by no means certain that we’ll have completed our transfer business when the season opens. And new signings don’t always start straight away.

Varane will almost certainly be injured. Maybe Shaw as well.

Given that Ralf praised Rashford for his performances in training, something that plenty on here have chosen to forget, I think it’s likely that he will start. If he’s crap in pre-season he won’t though.

If Henderson is still here and featured in pre-season, I think there’s an outside chance he’ll start the first game.

Varane's injury isn't that serious, its a 2 week lay off is all.

If we manage to sign FDJ I reckon ETH will see those 2 as his main midfield and want to go back to his Ajax set up for sure. He's going to be the marquee signing of the summer for us. He'll directly replace Pogba and get his number I'd say.

Given that the world cup kicks off mid Nov, we need to bed in new signings ASAP.
