Our attack looks vastly improved playing with a 10 instead of the triple pivot


I think we'll see almost exclusively that once Gio is back in the fold. There's no way you're benching Weah or Puli and if Gio maintains his form and health he would be a menace underneath a 9.

Question would be who would be the other 2 between Adams, Weston, and Musah.

God love Tyler, and there will obviously be some rotation, but it’s McKennie and Musah.

Tyler provides absolutely nothing in the attacking half besides winning the ball back on the counter press

Ya, but outside of the flub in the Dutch game he was borderline world class in the World Cup. Id lock him in and Weston for now, but by the time 26 rolls around I bet Musah will be the 2nd best, if not best player in our pool.

I think he’s our most important player in the pool right now.

I go back and forth on this a lot. When Wes plays like he did this camp he is undroppable. Musah is incredibly press resistant. I have actually read that Adams’ progressive passing numbers are pretty good compared to others at his position.

Musah will carry it out of danger where Tyler will pass it. And in the attack both are pretty useless. Musah has no clue what do within 30 yards of goal

You pick between those 2 to pair with Wes. He is your 8 that provides danger in the attack

It amazes me how clueless Musah looks once he gets into the final third.

In a double pivot alongside Adams it has to be Musah. We saw Weston in that role all spring at Leeds and he can't do it. He is much better higher up the pitch.

In a world where it is a 4-2-3-1 playing Weston next to Tyler is square peg in a round hole.

He reminds me of Nagbe but Nagbe at least scored the occasional worldie.
