The fact that it's in real life is unbelievable for canadian soccer fans! Not in Football Manager... Not on Fifa... Not in PES... It's in real life!

TOcanadafan Posted September 1 Share Posted September 1 Davies not starting today. Worried Kompany may have the directive from Hoeness to let Davies rot away on the bench this season. narduch, WestHamCanadianinOxford and ahmedou 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worried Kompany may have the directive from Hoeness to let Davies rot away on the bench this season. I doubt it. He didn't seem to be on the same page with Gabry last match. When Pavlovic dropped into his spot in possession Davies either occupied the same space as Gnabry or aimlessly drifted inside. To be fair to him though, I didn't love that tactic anyway, but I'm sure he'll get more chances. ahmedou 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is similar to what Leverkusen play with Schick on the pitch and it lets some of Bayern's best players do what they do best. Musiala, Olise, Kimmich and Pavlovic are all where I would want them. It basically needs Davies to take Tel's spot in it. Which may be tough. But if he did I think he would thrive, similar to Frimpong on the other side for Leverkusen.

I don't mind it as a tactic, but I feel like Davies would be more comfortable and effective taking up the wider position rather than moving inside. More like how Barca seems to using Balde from the little I've seen. But Gnabry usually seemed to be hugging the touch line Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InglewoodJack Posted September 1 Share Posted September 1 What is the formation they’re playing with? FotMob has a strange set up with 3 CBs, including Guerrero. Are they playing with two AMs, Pavlovic the only DM? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not watching today, but last game Davies was part of a back 4 out of possession, but in possession Pavlovic assumed his role and basically drifted into an attacking mid role with Gabry on the left wing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they are getting a little too cute with with the movement/switching in a system they don't know super well yet but I would say Kimmich is a DM who sometimes drifts wide. 15 minutes ago, Aird25 said: I don't mind it as a tactic, but I feel like Davies would be more comfortable and effective taking up the wider position rather than moving inside.

But Gnabry usually seemed to be hugging the touch line In a firm version of this system, the wide player (wingback/midfielder) would always stay wide and would be responsible to cover back more that Tel is. Which I think is perfect for Davies, rather the CB/Fullback hybrid. Edit: Unfortunately Coman is a more like for like substitution for Tel.

I don't always agree with Alejandro Moreno on ESPN, but post-game, in his polite way, ripped Kompany's tactics / set-up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
