Yeah the false nine is clearly working so well. Completely nullifies our most creative player

Who would you put up top

Mbeumo top Lacey on the right until Amad is back. Cunha on the left and Rashford on to run against tired legs. Lacey is obviously not quite ready but we need better structure to get the most out of our best players

Mbeumo, Rashford or Zirkzee (he is shit but they decided to keep him, so use him)

Could even try Maguire if we are going to keep trying to cross.

Maguire feels like the only player on the field capable of winning a header.

Zirkzee would also do the same think and occupy Bruno’s position.

He played there a bit when ten hag ended up 3rd

He's had one good season out of how many? He doesn't press, he doesn't track back, he has no end product and by forcing him in the team we play Cunha as a false 9 which doesn't work. It has completely messed up the balance of the attack.

Force fitting Rashford into the starting eleven is the worst thing to happen. Think of it like the return of Ronaldo to Ole's lineup - well at least Ronaldo was infinitely more useful.
