If everything goes to plan, our team for the next game could be something like this... ------------------- Pickford -------------- Manquillo -- Kone -- Djib -- PVA ----------- Kirchhoff - NDong -------- -------------------- M'Vila ---------------- Januzaj ---------------------- Naismith -------------------- Defoe ---------------- Who would have thought that a few weeks ago?
Makes me think we need a bit more of an attacking threat from the middle of the park. In Dong quite defensive?
He gets forward a lot, I didn't realise who he was by name, until I saw his picture of his stupid hair. L'Orient have a player who sits in front of the back four, Massoub or something, and the other mids sit in front of him. Lorient have had a very poor start so I can see why they're trimming the stock back.
Steady on 83 there's plenty time for four or five of these to pick up serious injuries before then. Positive thinking.
Suppose you take out M'Vila for Cattermole now and Naismith for Khazri. Still not a bad starting 11 but injuries could cripple us.
................pickford............... ..manquillo..kone..bodji..pva.... .............kirchoff.....shlong...... ...watmore....januzaj......khazri.. ................mr. defoe............ Im struggling on the right. But pretty cool about the team apart from that one place. Could hoy Januzaj there and includr Pienaar? Oh for M.Vila.
Big dong is suspended, I'd possibly put denayer in defence alongside kone and move papy up to DM - apparently he's played there before. Also think I'd swap januzaj and khazri around but thats just nitpicking. Possibly also play gooch over dunc. Hope kirchhoff is fit for it otherwise we could be struggling in midfield a bit.
Fixed for ya. Subs: Stretchasketch (keeper), Divvenar, JOS, Love, McNair, Gooch, Watmore, Asoro, JOS helps bring the average age of the subs bench up....
