Oooh to be so young! We had the best team we ever had then, but it fell apart all too quickly. I ain't going to be really happy until we get back to that sort of level. Then this time we need to maintain it.
There are a lot of people who are negative about Dyer but he can do a job in midfield if fit. He's survived pre-season so far. No one needs to educate me on his injury history but there's always a chance and we can use him. The 25 doesn't have to be declared until transfer season is shut, right?
Nuts...when everyone is fit, I'd go for this: -----------------Green------------------ Onouha---Ferdinand----Nelson------Fabio ------------Diakite----Faurlin------------ Park------------Taarabt----------Hoilett ---------------Cisse--------------------
Col, i really like the look of this team and that formation. Perfect for home and away against weaker teams. I think we could pack a punch with that front 4. Imagine having Hoilett and Park running at you for 60-65 minutes and then Taore/SWP/Mackie coming on for the final half an hour. Good balance of genuine pace and energy. Still think Onouha is a better CB and i would consider the following back four Fabio------Onouha-----Ferdy-------Traore Several advantages in pacey full backs, however, lacking real leadership that Nelson would bring. Would be really happy to see either team start on Sat and let Adel create and run at players from a more central position.
