Just when I was starting to enjoy the element of succession planning in defence.....

3 at the back is what I've wanted all season but it does stretch the squad defensively. The club have been a little quiet on Mavropanos too, though they say he is expected back this month.

I also think it has virtually transformed Kolasinac's game who really has not impressed me till the last couple games. The cut back football style Emery has been developing has really allowed his qualities to flourish.

Would have been nice to beat United at Old Traf before Moaneeedio gets fired.
