The Case For Andy Carroll As A Defensive Midfielder.

[Megadrive Man]

He might actually have more of a chance playing as a defensive midfielder now!

[Reckoner]

Yeah, nah.

[G Richards]

There might be merit in Downing at left back, given the role of the modern fullback, but this thread is taking the 'players in a new position' thing a bit too far!

[thisisanfield]

Wow.

[Saucepan]

 

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!

[a stoner]

I know he's tall but fucking hell I'm pretty sure most could kick a ball over him in midfield!

[neopulian]

He often appears to be playing as an opposing centreback.

 

That's an insult to opposing central backs -- they anticipated the plays more often than he did.

The case for Reina at central forward.

 

Some will laugh, and I'll get some negs, but what the hell here we go.

 

He's big and mobile with decent ball skills and he can head the ball as well. We have such a rich history of strikers/forwards. Think Keegan, Dalglish, Rush, Beardsley, Aldo.

 

Is there a place for Reina in Rodgers new system?

I see where you're coming from, but I wouldn't want to lose his goalkeeping skills; however, this awesome player could maybe pull off the impossible and play both positions at the same time !?!?!?

 

In contrast, Carroll has no place in the new quick-fire-bren-gun-system; poor bugger just can't get a start.

Well he is third choice striker:

"But, as a club, I'm not sure we are in a position to have £35million players as third-choice strikers" -Rodgers
