Kolarov on the wing? Could go either way, bold choice and I hope he puts the "hammer" on them.

Strong bench

Sad not to see Nasri starting. We've got some great options on the bench if it goes tits up though.

 

[sam-caddick]

Hart; Zabaleta, Kompany, Demichelis, Clichy; Navas, Fernandinho, Yaya Touré, Kolarov; Silva, Negredo

Wrong team, two in midfield means we will get overrun big time, Kolarov is great at swinging in ball from the wing but poor in possession.

I hope I am wrong but we look to be going very direct tonight and look almost couter attacking.

Let's hope Pellegrini pulls this off.

Really interesting line up, dont think anyone would have predicted that.

Are we about to see a Pelligrini masterclass?

it looks like we're going to do them on the counter attack. i predict goals .

 

[RandomJ]

Kolarov NEEDS to do his defensive duties tonight. He can't just stay up front after pinging in a cross he needs to help Clichy out.

 

[willipp]

For me that says he wants to really push their full backs right back with two wide men.

 

[MCFCinUSA]

the system with two wingers worked against bayern away . we scored three goals then. but milner was on the left wing, not kolarov .. i guess kolarov is better.

Milner is suspended isn't he?

hoping Yaya is going to be playing further forward with this line-up.

 

[razman]

kolarov is obv out there to help put clichy otherwise nasri would have put in

Excited now, leaving soon
