I'm going with the same line up as Reading, injuries allowing. But as DQPR most likely line up 4-2-3-1 I'd like to see us line up to match them. Something like.... ---------------Guzan-------------------- Rosenior--Chester--Gerrard--Daws if fit -----------Ash------Harper------------- McLean------Koren-----Stewart ---------------Fryatt-------------------
I think thats a very valid point actually. I'd still hope whoever plays in front of Macca won't leave him isolated too often though
------------Guzan Macca Chester Gerrard Rosenior Koren Ash Harper Stewart -------Fryatt simpson simpson is proper up for the game and mclean hasnt set the world alight, reckon that will be the only change, harper has looked good of late.
Pearson said - "He'll be named in the squad, but if I'm honest it might take him a bit of time to adjust to English football, it might take him time to get up to speed but he's got the technical ability to make an impression."
Guzan McShane Chester Gerrard Dawson Ashbee Belaid Koren Stewart Simpson Fryatt That's what I want, I think well see. Guzan McShane Chester Gerrard Rosenior Koren Ash Harper Stewart Fryatt McLean
Yeah fair enough about Belaid needing time to settle, sensible management as well. But the lad's got to be bursting to make an impression, and given what has been said in the press about his attitude to being left out of the side I hope he takes it well! Looking forward to the game tomorrow after a decent second half last week, hopefully another 3 points to really put our play off charge into gear.
You may wish to expand on their away form since early October. On 2nd October, they beat Palace 2-1 at Selhurst. Since then they've: drawn with Swansea, drawn with Bristol City, drawn with Portsmouth, drawn with Forest, lost to Leeds, beat Coventry, lost to Norwich, lost to Blackburn in the cup, & drawn with Burnley. Looking at that, they do seem to have struggled on the road somewhat recently
Guzan Rosenoir Evans Gerrard Chester Harper Barmby Koren Stewart Mclean Fryatt Attack! they wont see it coming
Koren in the centre hopefully, stewart pushed up front and maybe a return from devitt. would like to see that
Hard to pick with rumours on Ash situation & Dawson injury,,,,, Hate to see Daws miss out as would disrupt players playing in their best positions... if both these happen, agree exactly with this
Didn't see the reading game so can't comment on evans' contribution so does anyone think he may start after last match?
If it's true about Ash being out of the squad, then Evans will surely start in the middle with the undroppable Harper.
Judging by the shirts hung up in the changing room last night the team will be --------------Guzan-------------- Rosenior-Gerrard-Chester-Dawson Koren--Evans--Harper--Stewart --------Mclean--Fryatt------------ Subs: Duke Barmby Cairney Belaid McShane Simpson Bradley
