Either way, seems positive that they are aligned. |  | |  |

Does this signing meant we are no longer looking at George Cox ? |  | |  |

Was thinking something along those lines as well, although we have to replace McCullum also. Cox hopefully. Unless Nico is the back-up there. And that's assuming we will play with Kakay, Uncs or Moses at RWB. Unless its a 4-man defence, then I suppose we are OK with what we have. But the first two signings suggest we will play 5 at the back: a defender who does best in the left of a 3-man defence and a LWB. To then play a flat back 4 would perhaps be a bit strange. |  | |  |

Or it could be seen as an attacking full back with licence to push up on the left and a left sided CB with the pace to cover in behind him. Don't forget Field is left footed too, can easily drop in to help cover when Paal pushes on and Chair cuts inside, etc... Ultimately I think with the lack of financial resources and only 1 short summer window, we're not going to have all the pieces Beale wants to play the system and formation he prefers. I doubt we'll see his version of QPR for another few transfer windows, especially if we don't sell anyone. He talked quite a lot about admiring managers that adapt to the players they have before implementing things over time - he gave Tuchel and Ancelloti as examples - so maybe he's going with back 3 out of necessity for now, with the plan to change down the line with more suitable players. The lads we have signed give us some options at least. I'm sure he will mix it up early on and work it out - that's a big positive of an elite coach. |  |

Except that at times Paal is called a left back and this 'half space' he finds in the final third is when he comes inside the winger. I think and hope, that both signings will be comfortable in either system as we need to be flexible, in order to make it more difficult for the opposition to find a successful 'game plan'. |  | |  |

It will be interesting to see how he links up with Chair and Willock. If they’re both still here of course. Definitely looks like a player that will add something to our team, certainly going forwards. |  |

Well, I always call him George Cole for some reason. Having Arthur at wing-back is exciting to me. |  |
