alfieconn Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 In all seriousness I am certain Tim realises we do need another forward. I don't know of any top club that has only two to choose from... irrespective of form, what about injuries or possible suspensions. Absurd thought in my view. We can all see half a dozen contenders in the fray. I see nothing wrong with reviewing each of them and forming an opinion. I think that is what most supporters of all clubs do. Don't you? Arse have only Giroud and bentner who are out and out forwards ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicog Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 Maybe you are both correct.... Maybe not. For a side competing with Liverpool for 4th spot *** *** That would be Liverpool and Merchandise United. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We also have some bloke called Sanogo who apparently has just climbed off his sick bed, probably just to get kicked back into it by a feisty Flamini special.

carmine Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 Looking forward to the City game i'm kind of hoping he keeps to the side that playing Swansea with the one exception being Vertonghen in for Chiriches. i suppose he might include Paulinho but after a months lay off i'd hope he's brought on off the bench. We'll also have Townsend Sandro and possibly Kaboul on the bench too. Regards the remainder of the transfer window, i doubt very much if we will be participating.

mjj Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 I think City are beatable with the right set up. If you play defensive you will get hammered IMO as City will score. City's weakness is their defense, so try to exploit that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll also have Townsend Sandro and possibly Kaboul on the bench too. Regards the remainder of the transfer window, i doubt very much if we will be participating. We go into the game as underdogs. Everyone will be betting on City to hurt us again. At the Lane we can use this to our advantage and take the game to them. Any attempt to sit back and park it will lead to a low scoring game in their favour I feel. I agree with you our strong bench could be key to freshening things up, especially good if we manage to go ahead. Fresh legs = added impetus and all that. I am worried about Danny Rose's pure defending ability at this the highest level in the EPL and would prefer to see Jan as LB against city if he's fit. Vlad has been getting stronger with every game so the other 3 at the back unchanged. So a 4-2-3-1 for me Lloris Walker Dawson Chiriches Vertongen Dembele with either: Sandro or Bentelebe (latter the more probable) Lennon. Erikson. Sigurdsson or Paulinho (preference is for Paulinho instead of Sigurdson) All 3 interchanging positions. Would love to see Paulinho in behind Adebayor. Adebayor City will be a handful for sure. We need to score early on. The Window. I suspect we are in for both a striker and a playmaker. Preference is for EPL experience. We are suffering badly with players who are seemingly taking too long to adjust. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A forum not a media outlet? Hmmmm I suspect if you did a full analysis of the forum you would find 90% is media driven where posters then share their opinions. Leaving that aside take a look at post number 1 of this sub forum "Just noticed today that there are quite a few visitors to the forum, who don't usually post. We like the football banter on here and the more the merrier. So come on, introduce yourself and tell us who your favourite team is. It always helps if we know who we all support when it comes to a bit of banter". (Posted by Mr BoJo six years ago) No rules about not commenting on the news, gossip or anything else for that matter. I have an idea though Alfie, why don't you start a very serious football thread for expert tacticians and in your first post state your purpose and objective of the thread together with a caveat that media related posts are not welcome. I'll join and promise to abide by those rules. I wonder how many other takers you will get? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
