Whilst initially once we switched to two for the Arsenal game and subsequently won against Chelsea is seemed to make us more solid. But since then we’ve actually looked more open and as a result conceded goals a plenty. I do wonder against slightly weaker opponents will we revert back and be braver. Personally think this happens Sat. A three of Philogene, Ensico and Broadhead behind Delap is quite exciting. Philogene can play off the right and I’d expect Hutchinson to have a rest tbh. |  |

Nah, Jaden has been signed to play on the left. I don't think he'd have signed actually unless Kieran wanted him there. Interestingly, he's also been used as a false nine in training... |  | | |

What, exactly, IS a " false 9"? How / where does this player play? |  |

Delap up top
+ Jaden left
+ Enciso middle

The nominal centre forward drops deeper into midfield, rather than playing up against the centre backs, making them harder to mark. Dropping deep then, in theory, pulls the defence out of shape, creating space for runners. |  | | |

Teddy Sheringham and Nigel Clough were early 'False 9s'. | | | |
