Assuming O'shea is out

who do we go with?

Brown
Coates
or Rodwell

Think Sam will go with Coates

Id like to see a back 3 of Kaboul Coates and Rodwell and YEdlin Jones/PVA played as wing backs.Wont happen like

 

or god forbid recall Vergini hahaha

 

Kaboul might be out too.....so maybe Coates and Rodwell at the back.....but think it would be Brown before Rodwell.....

 

Kaboul is injured. likely a Coates Brown pairing for the next match

 

Scary thought.

 

Very much so.

 

Did you have Benteke or Lukaku Bri?

 

Bentake, mate. It was a very close bet imo. Just wanted to call the lad out as he was being a proper coward. It's for charity. Why? Is Bentake out for the season or sumit?

 

What`s happening with Matthews?

He must be fit now surely and he is (theoretically) a defender.

 

Nah just cos you're playing Everton next double whammy for you if Lukaku scores.

Be a close bet that by May pal.

 

It'll be a good cause though. They're both 10 to 15 strikers, will be close indeed.

 

Whoever Big Sam picks we must support them, both YK and SC have had their share of critisism this year yet both contributed to our second half defensive display, which was a far cry from being a disaster. I would like to see both of them rise to the occassion and fulfill their potential, and it would be great if they felt it had anthing to do with our support. Win Win. I also ment to say I think it will be tough whoever plays at the back this weekend.

 

It will be a hell of a tough game whoever plays, we need 2 players on Barkley that is for sure.

 

Coates for me. He seems to have time on the ball and can pick out a better pass.

 

I think I'd rather try Rodwell with Coates than Brown, who must be so rusty he would actually audibly creak. Don't get me wrong I'd be nervous as hell playing Rodwell there but I don't think we (or anyone) is going to make a prem standard CM out of him so I'd like to give him a go at CB.

He does have a lot of attributes you'd want in a CB. He's tall, athletic, wins headers, brave and is two footed which always helps when playing it out from the back. Question mark over decision making but he's not the only one.

 

Surely there MUST be a role Rodwell is best suited to, (still not a fan ).

I'd love the lad to prove me wrong!

 

If he does not make the transition to CB, it looks like another 10m down the drain, as he looks lost in midfield imo.

 

Possible something in our favour is the ET cuptie they had with Norwich on Tuesday. Bide our time until they are worn out then score.

 

Rather than trwing to reconvert Rodwell or trusting Brown, why not take a gamble on one of the under 21 players ?

George Brady ?

 

Any young CB's comin through at the moment?
