Tactical Ruminations: Jedinak the centre-back?

mardi 2 septembre 2014

Alright, this isn't one for straight away, but with Ledley and now McArthur we now have two midfielders that are pretty good defensively and can pass.



Jedi's defensive qualities are Herculean, and make him virtually undroppable - but his passing is a disaster. What if over time he retrains as a centre-back? This idea's been floated before, but we always ran into the problem of having noone near good enough to cover the defence in his absence. But now...



------------ Speroni -----------



-- RB -- Dann - Jedinak -- LB --



-------- McArthur - Ledley ------



--RW ----- Chamakh ------ LW ---



------------- Gayle ----------------



... Looks like a pretty formidable spine to me. Right now the defence needs as much protection as it can get, but as we move away from the Pulis era and look at what we might want to become, Jedinak the centre-back might be a way of keeping one of our best defensive players and having a midfield capable of keeping the ball every now and then.
