All the credit to Moyes this half. Thrilled to get O’Brien in the lineup but the set up didn’t make sense to me and it’s been brilliant. Jesper really making the most of this and obviously everyone doing their part.
Uh, this can’t really be a back four with O’Brien at rb can it? Or a back five with lindstrom at rwb?
I guess if given the choice I’d prefer the latter but heavens neither sound ideal.
I'd love to see him in a back five with Myko, JB, Tark, and JOB. Have Myko sit a bit more defensive and allow Garner to push forward and look to attack down the right with Lindstrom in front of him and NDiaye CAM.
Moyes didn't ask nearly as much of him in terms of hold up / link up play, we generated a couple looks for him out of open play and he still couldn't finish them. Frankly, I think he may look worse under Moyes than he did under Dyche as it seems Moyes is going to look to him to make progressive runs and finish and I just don't think he's capable of doing it at the level we need. The system will be a step in the right direction but it remains to be seen whether DCL is the guy to lead the line.
