I think he will go for a 2-3-1 henderson wide right and sterling on the left. Aspas i guess could come in wide right but i don't fancy that on an away day. Allen lucas Henderson coutinho sterling suarez allows two to sit and the rest to press like F
So we'll line up with: -------------Lucas-------------- ------Allen-------Alberto------ -Sterling-----------Coutinho- ------------Suarez-------------. Then we pray to the penalty Gods to not give Spuds more
I think this pretty much means we'll go 5-3-2 ------------Mignolet------------- -----Toure - Skrtel - Sahko------ Johnson - Allen - Lucas - Flanagan ------------Coutinho------------- ---------Aspas - Suarez---------- That will not do well against the Spurs midfield.
I reckon we should just put 4 players out against the Spuds, in a 1-1-1-1 formation. Migs Sakho Coutinho Suarez
I actually wouldn't have minded that 3-5-2 with Hendo bombing the wings and Johnson on the lft. some decent pace and power to counter the likes of Walker, Townsend, Lennon, etc.
look at least this is a 5-3-2 not a 5-2-3. coutinho will sit in with this. but you cannot play flanagan as a wing back. thats a joke, a bad one played by fate on us. both LBs out, gerrard out, sturridge out, henderson out. thats 5 men down. I would honestly stick sahko at LB in this one. play 2 banks of 4 tight and let coutinho and suarez play up top.
Then what's his point? After our splurge on CB's his future is no longer there. It's no different than what is asked under Rogers as a RB. Either he can do it or we sell him for someone that can. What about illori as RB? Or did we buy him to just sit about too.
