if they were all fit, the one change i would make is, Rose for Dawson,and have Kaboul an Verts as the C/Bs
Me too, though Dawson and Verts seems to be working okay at the moment so probably wouldn't change it unless forced. Actually, I'd probably put Kaboul as RB and take out Walker. Prepare to be on the receiving end of a rant from JPG for suggesting such a thing though...
I would drop both Dawson and Paulinho for this game. Not only that, i would have them put down at the closest vets. Only joking JPG!
Very hard on lots of people, Capoue, Lennon and Chadli too, it's the only problem with having such a big and strong squad.
I think we're all a little confused. The comment was that WITHOUT INJURIES, that would possibly be our strongest team, though there are many players on the fringes of the team who might feel a little hard done by. Regardless of form or injuries in recent matches. EDIT: Seems I'm the one confused Let's move on...
Nothing on the OS to suggest they are injured (thats what you said?) Not on the teamsheet or subs bench (suggesting they are injured) I think i'm rightfully confused
Your "if they were all fit" line in #41 threw me off, but I see you were just talking about my Sandro/Dembele, Kaboul/Rose afterthought, not 'whole squad fit'
so what the hell does this mean? "no,there nothing on the O/S to suggest they are" What has the official site got to do with an imaginary possible line up that could occur if nobody was injured?
physioroom.com lists Rose as not due back til next week (LB panic begins) . And Capoue/Lennon on Oct 6.
You might well get a rant from me as well !! I happen to believe Dawson has been our better CD so far and is well worth his place. Anyway, I fail to see any justification for switching a defence around when they have had all these clean sheets. And as for Walker, he is far superior to any other FB we have, including Kaboul, and like Dawson has performed extremely well so far.
