we get over run in the middle because Derry is so slow and off the pace of this league.If we had a strong enforcer type CM,then yes,lets play 2 up top. We need to start scoring.
Both out the team. Zamora on his own. Adel on left. Remy on the right getting close to him when he can. Fabio or traore get forward when Adel comes inside. Only against sides with a good attacking right back I wouldn't use this
-----------------Cesar---------------- Onuoha------Nelsen---Hill--------Fabio ------------Mbia---Faurlin------------ Mackie---------Taarabt--------Hoilett -----------------Remy--------------- OR ----------------Cesar---------------- Onuoha-----Nelsen---Hill--------Fabio ----------------Mbia---------------- ---------Granero------Faurlin-------- ---------------Taarabt-------------- ------------Zamora--Remy---------- OR ----------------Cesar--------------- Onuoha------Nelsen--Hill-------Fabio ----------------Mbia--------------- Hoilett---------Granero------Taarabt ----------Zamora-----Remy--------- Prefer the first one myself, 4-2-3-1, but it is vital that the 3 behind Remy get forward more. We need more men in the box when we're attacking or we have no chance of getting the goals we need. If not, then against lower half teams at home play 2 up front with a holding midfielder as part of a 4-4-2 (4-1-3-2).
Don't think 'Arry's seen Zamora's game since he announced his disenchantment with the sport that keeps him sweet. And some of us on here have short memories if we're now thinking the lummox who gave us so little earlier in the season, is the missing link in an attack that's likely to keep us up. Whilst 'Arry's remedial abilities are not in question, turning Zamora (and Bothroyd) into assets will be akin to waking the dead! Love to see it happen - but won't be holding me breath I'm afraid.
I agree with this, except it could be BZ was carrying his injury in the last games he played for us and will do better on his return. With the midfielders we have today though I have difficulty seeing we can play Adel, Remy and Zamora, we will be overrun in midfield as yesterday and Zamora and Remy would hardly see the ball except for hopeful punts. M'Vila could be a very important signing if we get him.
Spot on Oslo. Very difficult to play Remy, Taarabt and Zamora together.....but not impossible, although Taarabt would need to shift to the left in a 4-1-3-2.
