I still just don't see us playing Lampard that high up the field. He's not a creator.
I would bet we'd be more likely to see him deployed in a way more similar to how LFC uses Gerrard now than being that far advanced. Go pull up his heat maps. He doesn't spend a lot of time around that part of the field.

Probably at first, Kwame Watson-Sirobe showed some real promise at RSL before he had an injury. I can see him becoming a starter, depending on who they bring in. I would expect him to fight for starting spot at Salt Lake had he stayed.
I would expect Saunders and Watson-Siriboe to be backup/squad players.
Done. Let me know if you want a better title.Probably at first, Kwame Watson-Sirobe showed some real promise at RSL before he had an injury. I can see him becoming a starter, depending on who they bring in. I would expect him to fight for starting spot at Salt Lake had he stayed.
PS can we get these last few posts turned into a new thread about potential line-ups? @Falastur einwindir
Unless Garber wills it ;-)If NYCFC gets Podolski then they aren't getting Mix.
mix will prob end up in LA filling donovans DP spot.
If we get podolski and iheanacho we would most likely see a 4-3-3. Not many teams have had success with that formation in this league, but not many teams have lampard, villa and possibly podolski on their team.
Wenger said Podolski isn't leaving Arsenal during this transfer window. And he's still being looked at by major European clubs. I just don't see him coming here
That lineup gives up 5 goals a game, hope we can score at least six
I mean the formation, there are no defensive wingers, Villa isn't going to provide and cover for the backs and Lampard isn't generally known as a destroyer.There are 4 unknown players in his lineup so without knowing the quality of those 4 I'm not sure how it could be so certain the defens would be porous .If the playmaker spot added to that lineup was class they would score more than a few goals.
