Given the choice as things stand, would you prefer a #9 or a #10?
For me I'm leaning towards a #10.
Reason being we only have 1 at the club and although he is a decent fit for us, as last night showed he just doesn't have the creativity to influence tight games v strong defences. He's overused and could do with a breather every now n then. Farke doesn't seem to trust starting anyone else there
We have 3 strikers (admittedly one is crocked). Although fans seem concerned what we do if Piroe gets injured, he does fuck-all in most games anyway. His goals are important mind.
It's a tough one. Would prefer both ideally.
Would also depend on the player. I'd prefer a top striker to an avarage #10.

I’d go a big handy No9, hold up ball and get on end of crosses. As has been said got a few who could do the job at 10. I’d actually like to see Tenaka in the roll, i think he is getting held back by farke.
Ampadu / Rothwell with Tenaka at 10 ? Thoughts?
Rothwell would be my preference for, not necessarily a 10, more of a hybrid 8 like Klich used to do for us.
9 for me is preferable to a 10.
Let’s face it, Bamford once back in training is only a fortnight away from another knock.
