Szoboszlai in the middle moving the ball side to side slowly... Until the 80th minute where we lob him up front for the last ten and hope.
If only we had Maguire
I would like to see a midfield that can create. I was thinking about all the wild subs and maybe we just need more midfielders to control the game and give us confidence.
That said, we don't really have options. Hopefully Nallo can get his third red card in a row

Coincidentally, this just popped up in my timeline.

That's another case of a player improving by not playing. I love Endo but he's been proper shit every time he played this season
I don't know what we expect of players like Endo and Gomez. We know that they're a tier below the regular starters, but we don't give them any minutes, save when making up numbers with a bunch of youngsters. In the case of Gomez the message is also "I'd rather have a midfielder play in your position than have you, RB by trade, play when Frimpong and Bradley are injured." Seems like setting them up to fail.
Watch us beat Eindhoven today and then lose to West Ham on Sunday. Unfortunately, I see it coming. But maybe not. We could lose today as well.
Every time I see Dom put in the RB position it does my nut in.

He's also not the tallest, so isn't necessarily going to help with all the set piece goals we've been conceding.
True, but he might help cut out opportunities in midfield a bit better.
Considering slot sees him as our 4th or 5th choice CB, I don't think set pieces matter
Because he's a stubborn, pigheaded cunt.
But this is the problem with Slot. If he is forced to bring players in from the cold, they are proper shit, because they haven't played at all. You can't expect Endo to just perform when he's getting no football whatsoever. Chiesa has had scraps but he's had enough to drum together some kind of form. Endo is literally getting 5 minutes every three weeks, he hasn't even got the luxury of League Cup football because the chump decided to throw it.

How far is Bajectic off playing? Slot will never rate Endo. We won't be signing a midfielder in January. Jones is being Jones, and Mac Allister has somehow forgotten to be a footballer. Bajectic returning to the player when he burst through under Klopp is the only source of change I can see at the moment. About a 5% chance of it happening, though!
