alfieconn Posted November 23, 2013 Share Posted November 23, 2013 Fair point, improved our squad and that could come into play. Have to wait and see come May. Can I go back to January, now we definitely got value for money in Sturridge and Coutinho. To be fair YB, law of averages ses your going to get right sometimes Starting to think AVB might throw in a couple of selection surprises on sunday Alf. Any thoughts? If the surprise is Lennon on the left i might end up launching my tele.... To be fair carms, playing Lennon on the left wouldn't be a surprise Well carms, sort of changing my stance on playing Ade, a month ago i was thinking that he would be a good alternative to Soldado, now i'm thinking will he score more goals than Soldado ? is he better in the box than Soladado ? ok he might be better at coming deep and linking play etc but is that what we really need from a lone forward ? perhaps he will play Ade in the forward midfield role instead of Eriksen although this is one game he shouldn't be trying that. I still can't see AVB being swayed by all the critisism of not scoring enough and playing a 442, well i hope he isn't ! I still think that AVB's plan has been to keep it tight thus playing a 4-2-3-1 which is a defensive formation and i can't see that changing tomorrow ! So the team i think he will put out : Lloris Walker Dawson Kaboul Vert Beast Paulinho Townsend Holtby / Dembele Sig Soldado Ade on the bench, perhaps a surprise and playing in one of the mid attacking roles although i can't see it really.

I also can't see Adebayor playing or remotely match fit for that matter despite the paper talk so i'll also go along with Soldado to. what i'd like to see is a surprise attacking mad of Lamela Dembele and Townsend.

MrRed Posted November 24, 2013 Share Posted November 24, 2013 (edited) Lloris, Walker, Dawson, Kaboul, Vertonghen, Paulinho, Sandro, Lennon, Holtby, Lamela, Soldado. Subs: Friedel, Chiriches, Dembele, Townsend, Sigurdsson, Adebayor, Defoe. Happy with that carmine? surprised he has left Dembele on the bench instead of Holtby. Would you of dropped you best performing player? He seems to have been listening to the fans for once regarding Camela.

Popular Post MrRed Posted November 24, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted November 24, 2013 Load of <deleted> if you ask me, apparently he's not happy that he ain't playing, well he's played 8 league games out of 11 !!! Any truth in this down at the lane? Newcastle and Aston Villa interested in wantaway Tottenham midfielder Dembele http://www.express.co.uk/sport/football/443583/Newcastle-and-Aston-Villa-interested-in-wantaway-Tottenham-midfielder-Dembele Could well be. They'll be a few more suitors other than those two. Ferguson, for example was reportedly a big fan of Dembele, well, you know, in a fergie tapping up type way!! Can't see us selling him without a replacement because you might be aware that were not scoring too many at the moment and need that creative spark. I've read Napoli are interested but it can't be as a goal scoring midfielder. He's scored 2 in 61 matches for us! I'm happy for him to go if Baldini has a replacement in mind Maybe because you are playing Shxt and the Shxt is hitting the BT How can we be playing shit if we have only conceded 6 goals ? In 1 game Alfie?? 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
