I would like to see Catts replace Gardner on saturday.....BUT..... I think this team : ------------------ Mignolet ----------------- Elmohamady - O'Shea ---- Brown - Richardson Larsson --- Gardner ---- Vaughan - Sessegnon --------- Bendtner ------ Ji ------------------ ..........................................................................looks better than, this team: ------------------ Mignolet ----------------- Elmohamady - O'Shea ---- Brown - Richardson Larsson ----- Catts ---- Vaughan --- Sessegnon --------- Bendtner ------ Ji ----------------- Ouch!...my head hurts!
I don't mind either team - but pressing the minus key over and over does hurt the head a little doesn't it!! Although Copy and Paste! I think Elmo woul,d be alright at right back against teams like West brom etc - although Dorrans is a good left winger from my memory!! Maybe with O'Shea and Brown mashalling the centre of defence and talking constantly to him and Ricco we may be able to do that. Although Bramble has been bailed so maybe the club will "stick by him" soi to speak and play him (on this seasons performances I hope not!)
For me its got to be: Migg Elmo Turner Brown Oshea Sess Catts Gardener Richardson Wickham Bendtner Everyone playing in their natural position (almost). It means Larson misses out but I think Sess is a better option and can be subbed for Larsson if he is not performing. I don't think we have a cat in hell's chance of Bruce playing the above, the best we can hope for is: Migg Oshea Turner Brown Richardson Sess Catts Gardener Larsson Wickham Bendtner I think Sess is stronger on the right and Larsson is actually better on the left because he does not have pace to go past a man but can tuck in a pass the ball around, switch play quickly etc....
Totally different team, but who knows... Mig O;Shea, Turner, Brown, Ricco, Larsson, Gardner, Sess, Wickham, Ji, Bendtner... Wickham has played l/w often... Sess in c/m... Ricco is there cos we got no-one else really, Fairly attacking team, but we are not playing Man U, so should not fear these.
Wickam, Ji and Bendtner all together wouldn't work from what I have seen of them...plus would you not then accuse Bruce of playing Connor out of position?
Why have so many of you dropped Vaughan? He is the only one that can pass a ball, no way can you put Catts or Gardner ahead of him.
