Quoted from Tommy


I just wouldn't play Hewitt anywhere other than RB, as that's where he looks at least half-decent. I can understand the temptation to try him there because he delivers a good ball into the box. But it's an entirely different proposition receiving the ball higher up the pitch under pressure and trying to get a cross in. Just think his skill set is either receiving a ball set back for him to cross before the winger gets up to close him down, or joining in as an overlapping full-back to make a 2v1 and thus, again, a bit more time and space.

If it means we haven't got a right sided midfielder to play RM in a 442, then just dont play 442. We've got to use a system that allows us to get a strong XI out and then use them to the best of their abilities. So a formation to suit the players we have is vital.

A lot of pressure on the starting xi cause the bench looks weak (and a man light?!).
