Well that tells you all you need to know about the lack of creativity in our midfield.

For me McGoldrick should be playing behind McBurnie and Burke against Villa.

With Fleck and Berge behind him.

We'd get overrun if we played the 10 role again. We just need our midfielders to be better.
 

He's an enigma. He doesn't score many, he doesn't assist many. But you only have to watch our games to see what he does do. Tracks the ball, always available, retains possession, slows play down in the final third, allows us to get up the field, create our overloads, execute our game plan.

I agree, on paper, he shouldn't be selected. But it's clear as day what he brings when he's on the pitch. Until our midfield start taking on more responsibility for what he does, he has to play.

He does all of what you mention very well which is why for me he should be playing as our attacking midfielder just behind McBurnie and Burke and I would have Fleck and Berge behind him i would like to see that given a try.

I cant see it to be honest I think last season was as good as we will get from most of them.

I would love to be proved wrong and would gladly eat some humble pie if we did.

So what's the point of him playing in an attacking role then? Said this a million times, the EPL is fucking ruthless, you cannot carry nice players that aren't productive just from sentiment.

A striker that does not score or create goals at this level doesn't play.

For me he would be better in our midfield in an attacking role if anywhere he is a clever player that brings others into the game no doubt about it he just lacks the end product infront of goal at this level same as Billy sadly.

Because he helps other players assist and score by getting us up the pitch. I did explain that in my post, you just cropped it all out & chose to focus on the bit that supported your point...

Of course I did because these were the factual points. Romance does not ensure EPL status.

It's not romance. I'm not the Chairman of the David McGoldrick Appreciation Society. I just watch all of our games and can see the difference in our play when he's not on the pitch.

I wish we weren't so reliant on him. I'd much prefer it if our midfield 3 were more mobile and took on more responsibility for getting us up the park and keeping us there. Then we could play with 2 genuine goal threats at the top of the park.

Sadly, they don't. Without McGoldrick we play long ball and we don't look threatening.

He's an intelligant player, but he can't score goals or create goal scoring chances. So what's the point playing him?

I can agree with that. But would Wilder drop Norwood??
 

Who then??

I think Ampadu mostly, but I can see Norwood taking on some of the sacrificial duties from Bash as Sander keeps improving, so he'll come off for a third striker, or another defender if we're leading.
 
I can see him going to Palace then us getting beat by them with goals from Brewster and Eze.
 
The Mail are ‘reporting’ that he is going to Palace.

Wouldn't surprise me in the slightest. London lad with the chance to go home and play alongside Zaha or hop over the Pennines to link up with McBurnie and Sharp..

Except new loan signing batshuyai can't get in the team on wages of hundred bags a week so how will and unproven kid
 
I don't think Palace can afford not to play him if they're paying big money for him.
Who ? Brewster ?
So they will have to play ayew ,batshuyai and Brewster in a front two ,so who misses out ?
Can't see it myself
 

This article say Klopp undecided after both us and Palace bid over £20m to join on a permanent next summer

After that penalty attempt by Ayew against Man U I’d be sending him to train with the kids

Undecided about what? Either agree a fee or don’t...comes across like he’s god (if the paper is to believed)

If the 2 bids are identical and this really is about development more than anything I expect us to have a fuzzy video this week.
