It's not ideal for sure, but if Caicedo plays midfield (with Gusto at RB) then who do you leave out ? Lavia ? Nkunku ? Maresca is never going to leave Enzo out if he's fit to play ... I guess you could play Nkunku up front, but then that still leaves Fernandez as the £100m player in the odd position ?

I'd leave Enzo out but not realistic with these owners/this manager.

Ideally you would drop Jackson, have Nkunku upfront, Enzo roaming, Lavia sitting and Caicedo going box to box like prime Kante.

Personally, I don't like the idea of shoehorning a player we paid over £100m for into an odd position. Even if he "inverts" he's still going to have to occupy the RB slot when we're not in possession.

I'm honestly not much a fan of the "inverted fullback" as a position/tactic anyway though, so maybe I'm coming at this with some pre-built bias.

Although didn't he spend half of a season playing at RB for Brighton with the injuries to Lamptey etc.

We saw that midfield 3 against City and we looked awful in the attacking end. 

I'm still an advocate of only 2 of the 3 should play.

 
Sanchez​

Gusto  Fofana  Colwill  Veiga​

Lavia  Caicedo​

Palmer  Nkunku  Sancho​

Jackson​

Boarding a plane at half one so should be able to watch the first half.

How much is a fit Reece James worth ? Our RB that is being paid £250K a week (£100K a week more than Caicedo) ? 🙂

Not sure what you mean. But I won't pay 250k for an inverted fb.

I will play 250k for a fb who is one of the best crosser in the world who happen to be able to lock down Vini 1 v 1.

 
From the club's web site : 

There was further good news as Malo Gusto and Romeo Lavia continued their rehabilitation with another modified session as they continue their recovery from injury.

When I see words like this (bold) being thrown around, then my inference is that they probably won't be available for the West Ham game ...

Watch out for the word "setback".

I assumed they were in full training and felt good about the game, but maybe not now!
