Weah was asked about playing the 9 and basically said that the guys there are doing the job and he is happy to contribute from the wing.

My biggest frustration watching the game last night was the lack of creativity. Musah doesn’t have great passing range (neither does Acosta), and while LDLT was a step up when he came on, it still seemed like our plan is get to the wing and cross. One of our best moments of the night was one of our players (Pepi?) cutting across the box to then take a one time shot, forcing a save. It was a nice bit of incisive passing and movement but there was far too little of it. As has been said above, we struggle at breaking down a bunkering/low block team due to a lack of creativity. I think Reyna in the place of Musah (centrally) would help solve this issue.

I’m also annoyed that Gregg doesn’t rate Scally. I don’t see him coming back into the picture unless we are forced to by injuries.

Sounds like a coach speak answer to not offend any of the 9's.

I think he gets a shot in Nations League this summer.

Dest and Jedi are locked down starters, but the depth at the outside position is wide open.
