NP stated yesterday that he was happy with his squad and he would not be bringing anyone else in. Today we bring in Hope Akpan for the season but NP says he will not be involved on Saturday. Therefore would not be surprised if he leads the team out on Saturday as Captain. Can only name 5 loanees, so expect Guzan, Gerrard, Hobbs, Evans and Amoo to be named. 4-2-2. Guzan. Ros, Chester, Gerrard, Dawson. Koren, Harper, Evans, Barmby. Fryatt, MacLean. Maybe
Today's comments suggest that Akpan isn't in the running yet, with that in mind I suspect we'll see something like Guzan Rosenior Chester Gerrard Dawson Koren Evans Cairney Harper Fryatt MacLean Not my team, but the one I expect to see. I see no chance of Barmby starting, he's almost certainly reverted to his impact sub role.
I think we will see a defensive line up with the hope that we can keep it 0-0 for about 70 minutes, bring on Barmby to start chasing the game....Pearson will not want to lose this game and a draw at home after recent results will see a very defensive setup....in my opinion. 4-5-1 but be told 4-3-3 UTT
i expect uncghanged, but would like to see a bit of width and take the game to them.. guzan rosenoir gerrard chester dawson garcia evans cairney koren fryatt mclean
-------------Guzan--------------- Rosy--Gerrard--Chester--Dawson ------------Evans--------------- Devitt---------------------Amoo ------------Koren--------------- -----Fryatt--------Mclean------ Would be my team then again though same again as last side would be ok I've got a feeling we will turn our poor home form around and get a 2-1 win with Fryatt and Evans scoring
-----------------------Guzzler--------------------- Rosser-------Chesser--------Gezzer--------Daws ---------Harps---------Evans--------Belaid------ -----------------------Roko----------------------- ---------McCaCaCalean-----SupaMatt-----------
I dont know why people keep putting Evans in their starting 11....based on the last 4-5 games, Harper is much more useful
Evans helped us get three points in the last game with some great defending off the line, Harper has to be in the team though or we look too light-weight.
i didnt think much to evans at 1st, but think he has been getting stronger and stronger in each game lately...
