Prediction: Line up vs West Brom

[Brizzle]

Just wanting to guage what people think will be our line up vs West Brom..

I'm thinking it will only include one or two newbies

------------------Reina----------------
Johnson--Agger--Skrtel--Enrique
-----------------Lucas-----------------
-------Henderson-----Gerrard------
Borini------------------------Dempsey
----------------Suarez-----------------

Or something along those lines. Maybe downing on the left. Allen in place of Hendo if we buy him. Front 3 to rotate a bit..

Lack of width worries me, but could be tempered by Johnson and Enrique with Lucas and Hendo playing a bit more conservatively to cover gaps left.

Given what we have now - that looks about right in terms of the players and the one we expect. But I would say you need to swap the front three to be in this formation:

Dempsey------------------------Suarez
----------------Borini-----------------

Agree kind of on the midfield but I have this feeling that if he does not get that guy from Swansea then he will do this:

-----------------Lucas-----------------
-------Gerrard-----Downing------

Maybe bring on Henderson a little later and take Gerrard of.

 

[dantes]

I like that, Downing could be useful in that position as he is quicker than Adam and not confident enough to continually attempt the most stupid passes possible that our makeshift right winger is somehow meant to pull out of the air and bring under control like the next Zidane.

 

[Oncy]

Reina
Enrique
Agger
Skrtel
Johnson
Lucas
Spearing
Gerrard
Borini
Suarez
Cole

is lucas going to be fully fit for the start of the season ? I wouldn't be surprised to see him eased back into the team over the first few weeks . they've already said he's back ahead of schedule ...it might be tough to ask him to dive back in straight away .

If that is the case then I can see BR slotting SG in that restricted role, and putting Henderson and Downing in.

[RedZeppelin III]

haha Scott Dann . Well at least we'd get to shout "Dann, Dann,Dann" partridge style for most the game .

 

[Modo]

Really?

More like a worst case scenario.

Agger and Skrtel sold.

Coates and Suarez rested due to being in the Olympic final.

Carroll sold.

Allen chooses Man U.

Lucas not fit enough.

Gerrard not fit enough or something.

I understand there may be a small chance that Higuain will be replaced by Demsey, Alonso by Lucas and Howdes by Carragher

 

[Skullflower]
