First 11, how do you think its shaping up?? ....................Pants................. Mathews Coates Kabul PVA ..............Catts Larsson.......... ...................Giacc................... AJ.............Defoe.............Lens Something like the above?? only problem I see with ^^^^^ is it's a team of short arses.
Defoe?? He'll score goals mate if played in the right position in the right system. I've no doubt about that!
Balotelli and Januzai have a bit height. Mario for the fun aspect and young Jan to get 10-15 from midfield. Sorted.
You not think he will struggle up top by his self? People say we will play 433 but most of the time we get push back so it goes to 451. Just a doubt I got about Defoe pal.
Defoe is the best striker we have had for years, probably since Bent. If he can't score the goals we need, no one else we can possible sign will. We need a system that suits him and with Giacc supplying from a No.10 role I think he will be fine.
I love GIacc, I've shouted from the rooftops but I hope he can't get his place for the first team. Attentions need to switched to an AM now, I want this to be the biggie of the summer, the big 'marquee ' signing. Only around 15m spent with money saved on some proper quality bargains. Think there's a huge signing in us yet.
Looks good but we do lack height in midfield. If we could get Dembele or Fer that would work. Also this is a make or break season for rodwell so we might see him come good.
Its looking better. Although with hopefully a few more in there will be different options. But thats not a bad team at this stage.
I can't see us buying another forward until Graham and Fletcher are gone. There maybe room for 1 more in midfield, a quality signing in that department would be very welcome. I still think we lack cover at the back, 3 full backs and 4 centre backs is not many when the players have the injury records and are at the age of our players.
Aye we need to offload a forward or two before we sign one. That young fella from the echo said we be looking for a forward late in the window. Plus a lb and class midfielder will do and we be fine to go.
4-2-1-3 pants matthews, Coates, Kaboul, PVA larsson, Catts Giacc AJ, Defoe, Lens Option of putting Lens on the right, and playing a striker alongside Defoe or watmore on for AJ
Get a quality midfielder in and give the forwards a chance. As well as the usual suspects Watmore n Mandron should be inc in that as well. With better service from the wings Fletch n Defoe may well score a few each. If it isn't working then see what's around in January. Admittedly not the best time to buy but we may just need that extra push for the CL place
