In other words, Messi, Firmino, Kane, Griezmann Benzema have never played as false 9 in their career. Only Fabregas, Bernado silva, Foden and Havertz have done that.

Fantastic football knowledge.
You can not call a striker playing upfront false. That's where he is expected to be.

Kane is a striker saying he is a false 9 is stupid. Don't do that. It's stupid.

When a fullback is in midfield we say he is inverted. If he is a midfielder we don't say he is inverted.

When a goalkeeper uses his feet, we can him sweeper keeper. When a defender does that we don't call him sweeper keeper because he is just a sweeper.

When a striker is a 9, you don't call him false. Wow! That's stupid. We call him striker. If it's a midfielder we see there then we say he is a false 9.

That's the idea. Every other thing you said about creating chances for others is correct.

I agree with you on this, some might say we're wrong but this is a fact(or whatever) I know about football. Because a recognized striker drops deep to help the team doesn't make him a false nine(they should probably find another word to replace that "false). Kane that I know of only started dropping and helping his teammates during the later days of his Tottenham days. Henry at some point started dropping to help his teammates too, we shouldn't call them false nine. RVP was amazing in that aspect too but he wasn't a FALSE nine, he was a complete nine with a desire to help everyone. Anyways what do I know, I'm just a fan who loves watching and playing football.

Bros how far grin

You only have a SS when they are two upfront.

Like in a 4-4-2 or 3-5-2. One of them is the main striker and the other the support striker. Sometimes the both of them can swap roles depending on how they choose to partner each other, like Dwight Yorke and Andy Cole. Some managers can also use an AM as a SS like Wenger did with Bergkamp (Wenger was always revolutionary, turning known tactics upside down).

You are hundred percent correct.

A striker is a striker no matter where he goes even if he chooses to go and defend cornerkick which we know many do. He is still the striker.

It is more than just helping.

When a striker CONSISTENTLY drop deeps to interplay and Link up Even when his team is with the ball, then you should know that's unusual cos any striker will ought to be at the end of chances when his team is in possession instead of partaking in build-up. That's exactly what Van Persie explained in the screenshot I sent.
And like you said, Kane in the Tottenham latter years(under Mou to be specific) changed to one and if you mostly read Bayern page, you'll find out initially how they all complain Kane drops deep even when they're with the ball.

The only reason why Midfielders were used is because they have the tendency and impatience to always want to be with the ball and build up unlike strikers— not like some strikers can't do it but it'll be difficult cos they're not wired that way. (I mean how will you tell Rvn or inzaghi to interplay? Even Auba couldn't do it sef)

But it's very funny that Rvp and Wenger used their own mouth to say that Rvp played as False 9 yet Spy still deh bring semantics.

It's very very good of him that he was honest about it. Some players just to feel themselves will tell media that they really meant to score that goal even when it was obvious he really wanted to cross the ball.
Ben White is one of the honest footballer I know. Like..man I just too blunt.

The only reason I'm hoping Man City drop any point is because I believe we won't drop point henceforth till the season ends. If I have any believe that we will, then I would just cancel my mind for any EPL winning.

Let me clarify something here. False 9 is neither a position nor a name on the field. It is a ROLE. A role that can be played by both midfielders and strikers. It is a definition of what you play and how you play on the field.

We better beat them silly on Sunday because they would rather lose to City than do Arsenal any favors to win the league.

How we start the game really matters. If we go all out full throttle to score ASAP like we did against Chelseas and Loserpool I believe we will claim victory.

We however need to take our chances as they present themselves and not firing blanks like we did in the first half vs Chelsea.

You are right on the money about starting well. Spuds are going to be extra motivated knowing this isn't just a derby but title implication now factor into it. We absolutely have to take our chance early so we can quiet the home crowd. The longer the game goes without Arsenal leading, the tougher it is going to get. I expect Spuds to come out physical and extremely aggressive. We need to match that physicality and not allow it throw us off rhythm.

Speaking as an Arsenal fan and based on previous results, City will find it most difficult playing them. Arsenal has the biggest winning chance out of the other three.

By the way Arsenal doesn't have the biggest chance of winning; Arsenal is playing them in a derby on their home ground. They have their fans as the 12th man. We can only hope our current form will be enough to see us triumph over them

Well, I was speaking as an Arsenal fan. grin I still think the least we will get in that match is a draw.
