ruralblue wrote:Yaya might just be the problem running down the spine of the team and he may also be the reason why Komps has lost his head. The whole cake gate thing must have really fucked off the likes of Zaba and Komps. All that fuss and he just walks into the team. Half arsed performances and turning his brilliance on when he feels like it and..... he stays in the team. It would certainly fuck off the players who give their all. Could also be partly why Milner is stalling on signing.
Don't get me wrong when he does decide to turn it on and goes on his no stopping runs towards goal he his one of the best in the Prem by a mile. He isn't showing this at all since coming back from Acon.

Very recently Doomie and myself were discussing this particular option as being something worth trying (starting with the next pre-season's games), just to see if it had any value or merit.
Didn't meet with universal approval though - in fact it didn't meet with much approval at all.

In one month, Vinnie will be 29 years old, at this stage it is almost impossible to change the profile of a player. That is not a solution, after all these years playing as a defender, he will need at least one year and a half to understand his new role. At first he will be very sloppy, he will be a target for many teams.
Move him there and he will be the most hated player on this forum.

Anyone notice what happened when City ever managed to string a few passes together last night ? Or when Shalke did v Real Madrid ?
Ans: they ran straight through Barca/Real respectively & could easily have scored on several occasions.
Kompay meanwhile, was up against Messi, Neymar & Suarez with no cover whatsoever.
Make him available, & both of those will be in for him, along with Bayern, Chelsea & probably PSG.

Bayern was a fluke, roma are not all that, Barca ends this phase, Yaya we need for 2 months sfter that the 'Spaniards and Pellers can jump on a plane and explain this season to the boss, good luck with that".........

absolute bollox. He's probably played more of his career since he started playing this game as a MF than a CB i would bet.
Move him up, move Yaya up if we won't sell...sell Nasri. Promote Denayer to Vince's spot. Try it the fuck out. Partner Yaya as a No 10 with a striker and let Dave keep roaming. Let Fernandinho partner Kompany and then add a Reus or Isco or Pogba....then we just need a fucking actual LB and we're laffing.
4-3-3, 4-4-2, 4-2-2-1-1, 4-2-3-1 fucking. whatever. you call it.
cheers

The guy is short of confidence and is struggling with the ball at his feet, and you think he would flourish in a role where he constantly will get the ball with his back to the opponents with no clue of what's happening around/behind him?
