FC Schalke vs Borussia Monchengladbach predicted XI
By Josh Sippie
Attack
The reason I’ve decided against the No. 10 role produced in the 4-2-3-1 is simply because I think it does a tremendous favor for Amine Harit. At No. 10, so much depended on him. When he wasn’t clicking, the attack struggled, the transitioning wasn’t smooth. It got rough.
The biggest favor we can do for Harit is lessening the burden. Support him and free him up. We can do that by letting the bigger, more energetic base of this midfield drive the middle of the pitch and letting Harit free-flow wherever he needs to. So slot in Harit on the left wing.
Daniel Caliguiri will likely keep his spot on the right wing, though I do wonder if he will keep it long with the sudden uptick in competition. He is capable of just about anything, but it wouldn’t take much to see Wagner shake things up to incorporate Rabbi Matondo or bring Guido Burgstaller back into the mix.

Up top, it has to be Benito Raman. He’s been so good lately and I can’t wait to see him continue that streak. The more he plays, then more goals he will score. There’s just no stopping him.
