nopes. Auba leads the line. Nketiah supports. His positioning is central.
Sure lad.
You're completely missing the point though about Nketiah, whatever his role may be.

Glad seeing others changing their mind about Nketiah. He's a fighter and can press but he should be no where near the starting spot.
He's done nothing to show he's good enough other than score a few tap ins....every aspect of his play has been poor. Seen some people compare him to mason greenwood. Greenwood is light years ahead in terms of ability and talent.Not sure whether it's "changing their minds" really. He just isn't ready to be our starting number 9 at the moment. Doesn't mean he's ****. He has so much room to develop.
Most people (including me) want talents to show their all at the age of 17 like Cesc did but that is so uncommon..

I think he's still a bit raw myself. I think there's a lot of talent there but watching back the recent games, I have been less than impressed with how rushed and lacking composure he has been in possession. Some flat track games in the EL should be good for him IMO.I’m usually quite positive about our youngsters, and I don’t like upsetting @MutableEarth , but I just don’t think this guy is good enough.
He’s got a good eye for goal, but has a limited physical presence, no creativity, and poor link-up play. Just don’t think he’s got what it takes to play CF in the prem.
Attack just looks completely pedestrian with him as the spearhead. Hope he is limited to the cups / super sub role.
Looked good when he came on, to be fair. Is much more comfortable linking play and playing like a rounded #9 at this level than he is at first team level (understandably). I really wish we were in a situation where he would have gone on loan, but Arteta likes him (as do I) so he'll get minutes here. I just want him to calm down a bit - sometimes an overeagerness to impress can lead to rushing things.from BBC webpage :
Nketiah netted his ninth goal in his last five qualifying games and his 13th overall for England Under-21s, matching the record held by Alan Shearer and Francis Jeffers.
let's hope he becomes another Shearer rather than another Jeffers
Nketiah should start based on his u21 and potential. Not based on what he has produced which is very little. Specially his general play. I don’t think you can play him and auba together as both lack general play and we won’t build much playIt's either start Auba up top or Nketiah really until Martinelli is fit and ready. Laca doesn't count as as he always needs to be subbed around 50 mins in.
