Nice problem eh, Football19? How would you work 4-5-1 with these guys?
This post has had me thinking since lunch time - given a fully fit squad and the freedom to choose the best formation to suit them... what would be our best XI?

The 4-4-2 that Beatts seems to be aiming for seems to be something like the following:

Bettinelli
Hunt Winnard Aldred Naylor
Naismith Joyce Murphy Wilson(Mingoia?)
Webber Odejayi

I can see a few ways we could set up the the squad however that may be interesting...

Lahm at Bayern has this season moved from full back to holding midfield ... the logic being put the man with the best vision and passing in the team in a position where he can effect the game the most - what do people think of Naylor doing a similar job? A possible 4-3-3:

Bet
Hunt Winnard Aldred Wilson(Liddle?)
Naylor
Murphy Webber
Naismith Odejayi Gray

If the priority is to ensure both Odejayi and Gray can play up front we could look at what Liverpool have done this year and play a 3-4-1-2

Bettinelli
Winnard Atkinson Aldred
Hunt Murphy Naylor Wilson
Webber
Odejayi Gray

We've definitely got some flexibility in the squad - its just up to the manager to get the best out of it!
