So you think its reasonable to have that many players in midfield?
I'm sorry, do you want your 7th choice in midfield to be a full time CM? What is the point of this whole versatility thing the team always talks about then? In an injury crisis, Asamoah, Romulo are versatile players and will be played wherever the team needs them.
Also, why should I not count Padoin? Didn't we sign him? Isn't he still on the team?
If you have a massive injury crisis then you have to be creative, just like every other team out there instead of spending the limited amount of money that you have on 6th and 7th choices.
Vidal
Pogba
Pirlo
Marchisio
Asamoah
Pereyra
Romulo
Padoin
