Truth be known, the formation we may see on paper for (most) teams is not adhered to in the game. Of the two, Beto and Barry it is the latter that would be better in a flexible system. Problem being of course neither Beto (current form) nor Barry are good enough at this level.
As such I cannot see the disadvantage in leaving both out of a starting 11. Let's see if David now thinks the same.

From what we’ve seen, Alcaraz is decent in the air, and certainly more adept at linking up with Jack, Ndayie and KDH, has to be worth a go.

Agree JB, we can’t keep playing Beto or Barry.

Well David has not shown any inclination over his whole career to make such a radical move. I expect Barry to start next game and the merry go around will continue until the January window when hopefully we will get a striker who can strike.

I am willing to bet Rohl could do the job up front as athletic as he is.

He is more mobile than Beto.
