QPR XI: Cesar, Bosingwa, Samba, Hill, Traore, Mbia, Townsend, Jenas, Remy, Taarabt, Zamora. QPR Subs: Green, Park, Mackie, Onuoha, Granero, Hoilett, Ben Haim.
Thats a very attacking line up, surprised Traore is playing. I assume Fabio must be injured. Could be a 4231 or 442 more or less as we predicted.
Dream line-up with maybe the exception of Traore. All hands to the pump! ----------------Cesar--------------- Bosingwa---Samba---Hill------Traore -------------Mbia---Jenas---------- Townsend-------------------Taarabt ------------Remy----Zamora-------- Cheers El Pirata
Fulham XI: Schwarzer; Riether, Senderos, Hangeland, Riise; Dejagah, Sidwell, Karagounis, Duff; Ruiz, Berbatov.
Great line up - it's all in our hands now. Just one thing, I would have found a place for Bothroyd on the bench somewhere as an insurance for Zammo. We looked toothless and couldn't hold the ball up at Villa second half. Great to see Tarbs get a start.
Senderos and Riise are their weak spots and must be exploited if we are to get anything from this. Disappointed to see Ruiz start, had hoped he couldn't make it, quality player.
Looks like they are going 442, Id be tempted to try and start a 4231 and try and overrun the midfield.
Agree Flyer, Get plenty of ball to Adel and let him run 'em ragged, hopefully playing some quality through to Remy & Zamora.
Yes please Agreed. But with Townsend, Adel and Remy we can still be flexible tacticly. For all we know we'll play a 4231 with Remy supporting Zamora and Adel and Townsend can help out in the midfield to outnumber Fulham.
Have a feeling Sidwell is well up for this. Couldn't get near Adel in the reverse fixture, nutmeged time and again. My prediction is an early crunching tackle, just hope the referee is in controll. On the other hand Sidwell could be ****ing himself before being showed up once again in front of his own fans. We shall see.
Saw the Cambridge Boat-Race President on TV yesterday after they'd lost say if Fulham lose tonight it would complete a "Nightmare Weekend", welcome to your nightmare!...
Now there's a decent start 11 for once, if Zamora is fit. Lets hope he is, I'm also surprised Betty isn't on the bench if he's fit. Hope Adel is on top form.
