fair enough
i like henderson a lot too, but adam offers a lot and a loathe to drop him consistently
[/quote]
hey, 'someone' has to be dropped.
you drop henderson - you lose his delivery from the right
you drop downing - you lose width from the left
you drop adam - you lose his passing through the middle

You mix and match, depending on the circumstances. I don't think we'll have a regular first eleven this season.

*waits for ryan to pounce*
i'm in complete agreement with you anyway. Itll be based on opposition and fitness of players.

So unless you play with 'width' you have to expect miracles to score in and win football matches.
Sometimes, Spidey, you have a very strange views on the game.

Nah, what I meant is how can it be a free role if he's playing on the right, it's a bit like saying you can do what you like as long as it's on the right. I'm not taking the piss I genuinely just want to now what Kopking meant.
[/quote]
It means when the opposition have the ball, he's on the right to defend, but when we have the ball he can go wherever the fuck he wants.
[/quote]
You see that doesn't really work for me. I get the idea but it's a bit useless if the first thing your players have to do when they lose the ball is return to another part of the pitch to defend. By the time they all get back where they belong, the other team has scored. They don't wait for five or six seconds for Gerrard and Downing and whoever else to get back into the position they're supposed to be in to defend.
[/quote]
So you think all attacking players should stay in the same position all the time? I don't think what I'm describing is unusual or new. It happens all the time.
[/quote]
It's not unusual or new. It's called playing on the right. Otherwise every player is basically playing "in a free role" because they don't stay in their positions all the time.

'width' is too sweeping, I mean we should play in such a way as to reduce the relience on suarez and gerrard.

to be fair given our post christmas/new season form, we haven't, but gerrard would improve any team.

Have him on the bench at spurs. Bring him on for the last 30 mins and then unleash him at wolves.
[/quote]
And make darn sure he leaves the dead ball kicks to Adam and gets himself on the end of them instead.

He's even wearing a special bib.
I think it's the "be gentle with me" bib.

:laugh:
He's actually looking in decent nick there. Few rather unflattering photos of him floating about in the last few months.
Looked to have put on a bit of timber which is pretty understandable in fairness.
