Ok guys. I'm gonna put a slightly different spin on this one.Im going to stick my neck out and say, I dont think it's as bad as it might seem.
Reasons being:
1. If Enzio is playing we have to play 4-3-3 or 4-2-3-1. We are more limited in formation because I think he struggles in a 4-4-2.
2. When Enzio starts, the forward line has to almost be built around his qualities (much like Mahon in midfield in the past). What I'm trying to say is that he's such a big player, he has to be played and it can actually sometimes cause imbalance in the team.
3. If Ardley wants to play a rigid 4-4-2 then maybe there is somebody who can do a better overall job (defending as well as attacking).
I'm clutching at straws a bit here, as I'm gutted like everybody else. Just trying to put a positive spin on it..
