Not sure where to put this, but it seems like it's a viable place.
As much as we all want to see Ox and Keita in the midfield, is anyone else a bit worried about how exposed it leaves us defensively. I feel like the job Gini does goes under the radar and for us to have a thriving midfield we actually need him in it.
With that in mind, who is the better player to have starting in the more attacking role Keita or Ox? I love Keita and want to see him excelling in our team but for me Ox has shown more going forward and for that reason I would have the below midfield moving forward;
Fabinho
Gini
Ox
What does everyone else think?
It depends who we're playing.
Fabi, Gini, Henderson is defensively solid, and then later on in games, you can open it up by bringing in ox for one of Gini or Henderson.
Keita is decent defensively, and at only 24 he can become a rounded mf,and so rotate with the other less attackng MF.
It was noticeable last night for their goal, that the attack came through the space Henderson would normally be defending.
Gomez is getting back, Fabinho goes to the box, and just in front of Lovren there is a space where you would normally see Henderson defending (behind Gomez but further towards the box) that was completely open.
