    Shame, he looked a real talent when he played, but he was always getting injured. I assume that's why we'd be looking to offload him.

    ------------------Harper-----------------
    ----------Taylor---Willo---Kadar
    ------------------Tiote------------------
    Gosling----Abeid---Vuckic----Ferguson
    ----------Best/Sameobi-----Ba-----------

    3-5-2

    Taylor on the right side (can play RB), Kadar on the left side (can play LB), Tiote covering and can drop next to Willo when Scunny attack through the middle.

    When Scunny attack wide, since both Gosling and Ferguson can play as fullbacks they can track back acting as wingbacks, allowing Tiote to push forward, in turn allowing Vuckic to break on the counter without fear of leaving Abeid isolated.

    On the attack started either from our acting wingbacks feeding the strikers or with the central three dominating the middle of the pitch and passing it out wide to the wingers who can then form part of an attacking four.

    Failing that, hoof it up and hope for the best, knowing any balls coming back will be snuffed out by a potential back FIVE.

    Lots of movement. :)

    Oh yeah.. Kadar will probably be sold/loaned out because of Situ/Remy signings(well hopefully soon)

    Kadar's only got a year of his deal left, I'd guess we're releasing him due to injury problems.

    Lot of suggestions for a Ba/Best partnership, but that's the one I think we should be using in the league!

    Exactly! Give them this chance to prove what they could do together! Plus, throw them a bone since neither of them saw the pitch today

    This, if we can get a couple strikers on form our midfielders will have a better outlet and this will bode well for the premier league.

    Maybe a couple but to be honest our second string should get through it and we have Fulham on the Sunday and wouldn't want any of the best players tired or worse injured.

    Disappointed with the lack of JJ Hooper in these squads, unless of course he's going straight into the first XI? ;)
