Sarri won't hang jorginho our to dry and replace him, so if I were him with the troubles, I'd play 4231 like others have suggested, let jorginho play that ball around like a hot potato but let kante do what he does and clean up after him, then. I'd have hazard Willian and Cho ahead, Willian so he could press like Sarri demands but also once we do get the ball back we can break fast, get up the pitch fast, Willian / kante both could carry a ball 30/ 40 yards from a stand still, plus with Willian central it's a player who would shoot from distance, just like we saw v Barcelona last year, but also having that outlet wide in players like hazard and Cho, and if in Sarri and I worry Emerson not tactically there but Zappa is. try Azpi LB and Zappacosta RB, it's a way to tweak but save your philosophy slightly at least until players you want arrive, v city we need protection in middle but defenders need to keep that width because I said when we won 2-0 v city that's there strengths, also hazard could play behind hig with Cho left n Willian right because they've shown they have good link up st times.

And going into next season whoever is in charge one thing is we miss is the size and strength in centre. A Matic Bakyoko type as we got bullied at times yesterday. Savic of lazio is a goal threat, left sided and a big strong unit, a player who can arrive in box like pogba did.

Very constructive post Matt. Your proposed team wouldn’t be mine but I get your rationale.
