Experimental Line-ups

Clever, EPB, but where does Redmond fit in that formation? Surely you have WBs outside in the 4, CMs inside that, but do you see Redmond as one of the front 2?

I see Redmond behind Hooper and Jerome. I just feel that the way defences are set up by managers, admittedly they don't always perform, means there are sometimes 6 defenders. And there is never a sustained amount of pressure because the front men are marked tightly if not double teamed. And when teams predictably pass the ball, certainly away teams at Carrow Road, are happy to sit.

I know Redmond isn't Sterling but he has the same ability. And I just think if he could run at people more up the middle then defences would have to come out at him and that might just free up some space for the front men. And provide even more chances for him as I doubt Championship defences are any better than ours

I do believe we have the front men to compete with anyone in this league. Frankly, the way the defence is set up, they can be got at. So a three could zonal mark. Obviously the two wide midfield men would need to concentrate but I'm sure they would have the energy.
