I'd love to see the side line-up like that once or twice, just to get a bit of a sense of how it could work.

But I'm not, you know, I'm not one for...

There's only about four or five sides since Mourinho and Benitez come to English football in 2004-05 that don't play something you could describe as 4-2, 3-1 or 4-3-3 that win the league.

And even that, Conte's Chelsea is two wingers in the 3-4-3.

So I think if you're not going to carry genuine threat to the wide area, you'd best have Didier Drogba and Carlo Ancelotti as manager.

Almost, if you're going to pull it off the bag.

You know, it's interesting, Jürgen very much was a 4-2-3-1 manager in Germany.

Comes and looks at English football, spends a bit of time with it.

He's all in on 4-3-3 pretty quickly.

So I think that that will always be a bit of your direction of travel in there.

And often this can sound a bit like angels on their heads of pins.

But I think if you gave this, whoever the next manager is, or if it's still the current manager, but whoever the next manager is, if you said to him, you've got two top quality number nines, we're going to get you two top quality wingers, you've got Gakpo and Ingemoa, you should be excited by.

And in behind there, the number 10 is Florian Wiertz.

I'd like to think whoever that is says, great, watch us go.

I don't have to do the same thing every week.

We can rotate, we can mix it up.

And to Stu's point on Gordon, you know, one of the things with Gordon is, right now, Newcastle are using him as a number now.

You know, he's that multifunctional on the line.

And if you go back, there'll be games where you'd look at the way Liverpool would line up with Firmino, Salah and Mane.

But Salah and Mane are placed so narrow, they were almost like a centre-forward too.
