our best line up with Jelavic and Long in the squad when Sone is fit and firing. I'll leave that up to all you armchair managers
-------------Mac Rosie Davies Chester Fig ------------Meyler ----Hudd--------Livermore ------------Aluko -------Jela----- Long
-----------------McGregor Rosenior---Chester------Davies---Figueora Elmo-----Livermore------Hudd------Brady -----------------Aluko -----------------Jelavic
It gives Steve Bruce many options and improves the subs bench no end. On talent alone my starting 11 would be:- McGregor Chester Davies(c) Figueroa Elmohamady Huddlestone Livermore Brady Aluko Jelavic Sagbo
Could think about playing Brady LB maybe? Figgy has been been very poor IMO and Sir Alex wanted to play him there. That way we could get more technical players into the team. A 4-3-1-2 could work, with Brady and Quinn overlapping like they do brilliantly. Rosie is much more solid than Elmo at RB. Aluko can drop into spaces and also pull put wide, switching sides with long and putting balls in for Jela ------------McGregor-------------- --Rosenior-Chester--Davies--Brady- ----Livermore Huddlestone Quinn--- --------------Aluko---------------- ---------Jelavic---Long------------ OR 3-5-2 ---------------McGregor--------------- --------Chester--Bruce--Davies-------- --Elmo--Livermore--Huddlestone Brady-- -----------------Aluko----------------- ------------Jelavic---Long-------------
Mcgregor Elmo Chezzy Davies Figueroa Thudd Livermore Aluko Long Brady Jelavic I don't know if Long can play the number 10 role, but as he could barely score in a brothel if imagine he's starting to play more of a support role than number 9.
