Not many teams play with the role Gana does (and for good reason). McCarthy had a good engine but he wasn't frantic. Personally I'll be happy if Delph (or whoever) only tackles and intercepts half as much but holds position as it'll be better team overall (target than just a gold star for one individuals stats), more so if he is willing to recieve the ball and able to drive the ball forward. 1 StevO reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Your blind whatever is still not wasting time on I asked on here previously for anyone to name a team that has a Gana style player at Centre Mid and no one mentioned one. Closest is a few DMs being named as similar to him. There's a reason you won't find one. Most likely as you'll not find one training academy teaching players to play as recklessly as Gana. Football is a team game, more so when it comes to defending. All the coaching is about being a unit. Gana breaks that unit and leaves us exposed. We don't need an exact replacement. 1 nyblue23 reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Finn balor 1,766 Report post Posted July 25 We are desperately short in depth and quality at right back, centre back if gana goes we need a replacement obviously. We need a top quality wide man that will give Charley and Bernie competition at the least and two strikers in my mind. I think we lack serious pace on the counter. Bernie, Charlie, gilfi, DCl, Tosun. All averaged pace. We need a player that when possesion changes the opposition shit themselves. You can see when city, Liverpool break you know pretty much the ball will end up in the back of the net. I know they have the best players but there’s no reason why we can’t do it.

Ghoat 331 Report post Posted July 25 For me, what it boils down to is what does Silva ideally want from his MF, role-wise? Davies, Gana, Morgan, Delph and Gomes are very different from each other. Due to that, how they are paired very much dictates what we do as a whole, IMO. Gomes appears good-but-not-great deep, protecting the back four, and good-but-not-great in the final third. He is great in possession and on the ball, but where is he truly "best"? Delph maybe best in defense, good-but-not-great one ball and in final third? Davies - who the hell knows, he has show some ability in all, but not played a role consistently to settle in. But damn he looked good yesterday further up being creative. Morgan and McCarthy (in the unlikely event he stays) are traditional 6/DM's. I think Gana is an exceptional player - he covers a shitton of space and flies to ball with great effect all over the pitch, but is limited in what he can do in the final third. You almost have to have deep-lying cover for him as he is chasing balls all over. And doing that means one less player offensive-minded player in transition or attack. Forcing Gana to stay deep would allow for a more offensive player, but it also limits what Gana is good at - roaming the pitch attacking the ball. ASSUMING we lose him, I can't help but think we see a change in tactics in the middle, not replacing him with a Gana 2.0. As exceptional as I think Gana is, he's a double-edged sword that limits MF tactics. Which goes back to "what does Silva really want in the MF?" Between Gomes/Delph/Davies/Incoming-player who is best suited to play as an 8, or a 6, and paired with whom? As our roster stands today, and from last year, we offer no real threat on the counter-attack. DCL, Bernard and Richy all have good pace, but Theo is the only player with dangerous pace. Siggy for all his quality is just slow for a 10. If he stays up the pitch to compensate, he is too isolated in transition by our deeper MF. If he tracks back to compensate, the wings and especially DCL are isolated in transition. No matter how good they are individually, it seems to me the combination of Siggy and Gana precludes us from being dangerous or even effective in transition. And clearly we struggled with creativity last year to break teams down when they put 9-10 behind the ball. At the risk of joining "Team-peteO," I'd be fine with losing Gana (for good money). Gana is very effective pressing himself, but I feel his style limits other's ability to press and counter and leaves Siggy in a positional catch-22. Does the permanent signing of Gomes and addition of Delph indicate a tactical preference of the MF Silva wants perhaps? Or perhaps I'm just a silly Yank, and should leave the tactical discussion of "soccer" to the adults 7 nutmegwolf203, Bailey, Sibdane and 4 others reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don’t watch enough of the shite to know The most aggressive pressers (Alpha) play higher up the pitch so it will be your KDB's and Silva's (both) who start the press and then Fernandinho and the rest follow their lead. The more attacking players make the same number of attempted tackles as the the more defensive ones. Same with Eriksen at Spurs. Liverpool are a little more rotational but the prospect is the same. The point I am taking an age to make is that most decent teams dont have 1 guy running around tackling everything they can catch.

Palfy 1,741 Report post Posted July 26 We need to concentrate on winning the ball back as a team and not just think it’s the preserve of one player to go running around the pitch blindly looking for the ball but I don’t wish to dwell on the pros and cons of Gana we’ve debated that to much only to realise that Pete Bailey myself and I think Ghoat now are right 😀 We need a MF that hunt like a pack of wolves when looking for the ball where everyone is working in a system, the pack is more successful as a team than as individuals who show disregard for the team, then you want a set of MFs who are comfortable in possession of the ball with vision and accuracy and the ability to retain the ball with a purpose. I don’t see a MF like that with Gana in it for me he is a loose cannon to much of an individual in an area that requires a pack ethic with discipline, maybe Delph is the player who can help deliver that alongside Gylfi and Gomes, but I will concede it didn’t look very convincing against Wigan, and when you saw how easily Gomes was beaten and left standing you couldn’t be blamed for thinking I wish Gana was there, but it’s early days and they need time too gel.
