Fucking weird lineup there.

 

[MaBigTip]

i think Alonso is going to force his way out, and I don't want Lucas on the field

 

[keniget]

Well, if we're spending 10M on Camacho, surely he'd better off in central midfield as opposed to Riera?

maybe I don't know, we will have to see what works, if we want to keep Torres by him self you need 3 central players I think Riera could be shifted well in to the center but I am not sure. Maybe a 4-2-3-1 with Camacho as a direct replacement and Silva starting ahead of Riera is a better idea. We could also spunk it all on Essien or some superstar signig,

 

[MaBigTip]

Meanwhile, if you think I did it wrong, predict your own thats the point

i'm thinking masch and alonso are out and have no idea who we'll buy or indeed what position we'll play.

should have 60 million though for a centre midfielder, left winger and second striker - wh we buy will dictate our formation imo but looking at my first 11 the only real weakness is lucshit.

 

[spider-Neil]

personally I am thankful for our new approach (if it isn't forced by a lack of funds) too often we've gone for dross, if quality isn't available I'd sooner we kept our money in our pockets. as for alonso and mash they have long contracts, we don't need to sell so if barca/real want them we should make them pay through the teeth to get them. if we forced them to stay no way would they give substandard performances out of spite in world cup year.

 

[Oncy]

Reina
Insua
Skrtel
Carragher
Johnson

Mascherano
Alonso

Silva
Gerrard
Kuyt

Torres.

Maybe more hope than think but fuck it.
If Alonso leaves id drop Gerrard in and play either Yossi off Nando or move Silva in and play Riera out wide.

 

[acejmk]

I still think we will end up with villa and silva and macha will be leaving just a hunch don't shoot me down

Is exactly right. Mash & Alonso are under long contracts and anything else is just speculation. Is it just me or has anyone else lost a little bit of love for them?

 

[acejmk]

Also I think there is a chance if macha or alonso leave agger maybe moved into midfield which I think would be good.

That line up is distinctly worrying

 

[SaintGeorge67]

Wasn't there "one of these" last week?

Indeed there was. Assboy just makes a fool of himself.

 

[SaintGeorge67]

oh, and Martinez is MUCH better than Camacho.

 

[Bob Loblaw]

--------------------Reina

Johnson---Carra---Skrtel----Agger


------------Masch---------Xabi

Kuyt-----------Gerrard---------Reira

------------------Torres


I think we'll have one other new signing on the bench who wont be Silva or Tevez but a cheaper unkown (to me) signing, so they'd be on the bench with Cavaleiri, Lucas, Benayoun & Insua and to be honest if we did start like this I'd be delighted

 

[Buddha]

--------------Reina----------------

Johnson-----Carra-------Agger-----------Insua

Masher---------Lucas

Kuyt---------------Gerrard---------------Riera

Torres

subs to include new signings Silva and Negredo

[/quote]You've probably nailed it 100%

 

[FoxForceFive]

Or:

Reina

Johnson Carra Agger Insua
Mascher
Gerrard

Kuyt Silva Riera
Torres

I hope Buddha's is right though, I'd prefer Stevie to be left right behind Torres, but Silva could be a decent candidate to play behind him if Rafa wanted to.

 

[SaintGeorge67]

If Alonso goes we'd better fucking get Martinez. Not because he's the same type of player, but we'd defo need another CM in the current formation. Lucas can stay 3rd choice CM.

Bloody welshie

 

[SummerOnions]

I don't.

I don't want to see Lucas in that fucking midfield.

 

[gene hughes]

I think Babel, Dossena, Alonso and Mascherano to be gone.

So.....

----------------------------------Reina

Johnson---------------Agger--------------Carragher-----------Aurelio

---------------Some new fella-----------Some other new fella

Kuyt-----------------------------Gerrard------------Some other, other new fella

-----------------------------------Torres


My guilty pleasure is that I'd like us buy Bentley. But not for any of the three vacant positions.

 

[Frogfish]

First match we are away at Spurs so expect a more defensive lineup - that will include Lucas if Xabi is gone, gone, gone.

-----------------------Reina

Johnson-----Carra-------Skrtel-----------Insua

Masher---------Lucas

Kuyt---------------Gerrard---------------Silva

Torres

Bench
Cavalieri, Darby, Riera, Martinez, Agger, Yossi, New Striker.

And that lineup would do me just fine for starters.
