C'mon you are being too much of a traditionalist. Football tactics have evolved and teams that play with a midfield are going to be left behind.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) was joined by comedian Ali Woods to look back at the best and worst moments of a rollercoaster season with the annual United Hour Awards.
Has Ten Hag been sacked yet? We're not sure and we hope not, but it's looking more likely as the days pass.
Who should replace him and why is it taking so long to make a decision?
Liverpool are going to struggle so badly this season if they don't get somebody in to help that midfield out.
Will be interesting to see what happens.
Getting shredded by Enzo.
Chelsea dominating the midfield. Enzo looks really good. I think he will prosper under poch.
Needed some support. Jackson was on his own there
Alisson is just so good.
Enzo is quality. Shame he went to Chelsea but the fee was bonkers.
Wonder how many of those Newcastle will get this season.
Salah two seasons ago would press the opponents backline most of the time, now he's only arsed when Liverpool is attacking. He's gotten lazy.
I was kinda hoping Sky would go back to one commentator and one co-commentator this season. This love Sky have for Jamie and Gary shite is as irritating as their constant Romesh and that toothy bloke shit they pump out.
Jackson gets in good positions but is wasteful.
My analysis, he's got nothing about him but a bit of pace.
This has been a really entertaining game. The league is going to be very open this year with lots of teams going through transition and/or playing open and expansive football. Great viewing for the neutral.
Chelsea deserve to win this tbh. Been far better than Liverpool
They started well, but Enzo came out in the 2nd half and said to Klopp hold my beer.
Sterling is so bad.
We’ve not seen him enough to judge him on that. I’ve literally only ever seen his debut when he rinsed Liverpools defence.
Yep. That's what it is.Maybe it's the fault of the ball that keeps bouncing.
Fernandez is top quality though. He’s the one player that Chelsea have definitely got right!
Fernandez has actually been quality this halve
Nah.
Haha
Take Sterling off for feck sake
Right, so Enzo Fernandes is quite the player.
Annoying
Annoying
Where's that guy that said Enzo Fernandez is a scam and a shit player? He'd be absolutely brilliant next to Casemiro as well.
Oh fecking helllll.
Enzo is brilliant. I think he'll thrive in this role. Playing him as the deepest midfielder limited his creative capabilities and also exposed his difficulties defending in transition.
Looks like James is injured.
Reece James injured? Never seen this before. Proper ironman usually.
Enzo is really, really good.
Adding Caicedo to this chelsea side could make them a real threat for top 4. You’re already seeing a much more fluid and entertaining side under Poch. The scousers on the other hand look weak and light in midfield.
Yep.
Enzo's been brilliant. Once Caicedo comes in and let's him push forward I suspect we'll see him get quite a few assists
Don't tell me James is injured?
Bloody hell, James injured again?
I'd take a draw here from a United perspective. Nice to have both these team drop early points.
James injured already.. will probably see him in Dec
Yeah, he's been superb. Here was me thinking he was rubbish.
And there's the customary James injury
