I agree it's a problem position but it's a nice problem to have.
I think a bigger problem is who plays alongside Adams. I think we need Adams to
protect the back 4 which means we need a player who can go box to box alongside
him. That's not Roca or Greenwood. I think we look vulnerable i midfield when
teams come at us. Roca is slow and Greenwood defensively is poor.

No 10 would appear to be the 'problem' position
At No.9 we have Rodrigo, Bamford, Rutter, Gelhardt - cant drop Rodrigo
at the moment
For wingers we have Gnonto, Harrison, Sinisterra, Summerville and i
think Rutter can play there as well
For No.10 an out of form Aaronson - who i think Jesse prefers outwide
anyway.
I thought Greenwood was going to play there yesterday, as thats where he
played for the U23s - but he seemed to be largely out wide.
I think its worth a go - as i agree his dead ball delivery is valuable.
Clever of us to get our new left back injured, before he has even played
left-back.
Starting at centre-back between Firpo and Llorente must be fun

I think he has to drop Aaronson. He is behind Gnonto, Rodrigo and
Bamford on impact alone; he is also behind Harrison who had a quietly
effective game yesterday - I noticed he was doing a lot of shouting and
organising of Gnonto and Firpo up and down the left, he also set up the
2nd and 3rd goals. He is also, presumably behind our record signing.
A word for Rodrigo - who is so full of confidence at the moment, it is a
real pleasure to see him playing so well and thriving.
And then Sinisterra. And what of Gelhardt? Perkins?
No idea what Ayling was trying to do with that cross…
We desperately need to learn how to defend… and, yeah Roca was mainly
pants yesterday.

I am pretty sure Rodrigo will start and his recent performances and goal
scoring means he deserves it, but Paddy is certainly looking good.Jesse
also needs to work out if Sinisterra should start, is he fit and sharp
enough? Also Rutter , what does he do with him ? Assume bring him off
the bench but at €40m he should be first name on the team sheet once he
gets up to speed. The one whose place should be up for discussion is
Aaronson , his recent displays have not been good but he is a Jesse
favourite and looked very good in his first few matches
Most of all he needs to work out the best back four, Wober played CH
last night rather than as the left back we bought him to be, can we rely
on Firpo as left back? Ayling was massively at fault for their goal , so
does Rasmus get the nod ahead of him. Then with cooper struggling who
plays alongside Koch
It may be overdoing it to say this game will determine Jesse's future ,
but if he wants to keep the job he needs to get it right. A defeat will
make his position very shaky indeed and the crowd will turn, of the 4 of
us there last night, 2 want him gone, me and another are hoping it will
come right but are worried and not far off joining the 'out camp'. A
win at least gives him breathing space and may provide a platform for
the upcoming games
Looking at highlights from last night all 5 of our goals were excellent
Paddy just look so comfortable and composed for his two
