It's been confirmed by Hughes Ferdinand, Fabio, Traore, Diakite and M'Bia aren't available. Taarabt a doubt. So a defence of Onuoha Nelsen Hill Bosingwa? Worrying.
i'd go for: --------------Cesar dyer-nelson-onouha-bosingwa Park -Granero-Faurlin-Hoillet --------------Mackie --------------Zamora
Can't see him playing Nelsen and Hill together. I think he'll play: Cesar Dyer Onuoha Nelsen Bosingwa Granero Faurlin Mackie Hoilett Park Zamora
MH did not say all these players are out He said that Samba and Mbia are not quite ready and that Taarabt felt a tightness in training
he said mbia and diakite won't feature, that traore is out due to injury, along with fabio/ferdinand obviously, and that taraabt has picked up a strain during training. It didn't sound like any of them will play :/
I really don't get why that's worrying. Nelsen has been praised a lot for his recent performances, Hill was our fan's and players' player of the season last season, Onouha isn't the best at RB but he's far from the worst. He was actually good when he came on as a sub against Chelsea. And Bosingwa has been great lately, with a top performance against Chelsea.
those who picked us to win might want to reconsider, not good as we're only 4 games in. this will show us how good the squad is.
As solid as they both are, don't think you can have Nelsen and Hill in the same team - just not enough pace. Dyer as right back should be the percentage option with Nelsen keeping Onouha in position.
