I am predicting switch back to 4-5-2 at the half.
One-striker formations are so f-ing dull that I'm also predicting almost ZERO good chances in front of their goal.
Especially since Kun IS NOT made out for lone striker in 4-5-1. He is simply not.
This is ludacris IMO, hope I'm wrong. If I am wrong - feel free to get at me at the half.
But seriously,you cannot really believe you can go 2 up front regardless; just looked what happened v Bayern when we got swamped in midfield.
Chelski play with 5 in the middle which would create a similar problem at the Bridge.
4-5-2 with a fly keeper.....brilliant, why didn`t Pellers think of that.

Are best performance of the season last year was when Tevez played as a lone striker against United away. You really need to piss off to that Dzeko forum.EaglesFan said:TheMaineRoad said:Jesus christ.

I did...at the time Tevez was here, and was a lone striker.
Trivia of the day: when did the "boring, boring City" chants come around?? When we played 4-5-1.

Big test for Pelle's abilities today. I'm glad he's only playing one striker as this should give us more possession. Aguero's on fire so may only need one chance. He's obviously realised that Garcia is not a centre back and hopefully he can do the defensive "sitter" job freeing up Yaya and Ferdie to break forward. We'll see.

A lot of negativity I don't really understand.
Everyone knows Chelsea's threat is the three attacking midfielders. The thought if those three dropping in between the two lines scares me to death. Our midfield two wouldn't cope.
Perfectly logical and the right decision to play a holding player.
Not about paying too much respect or being too cautious. You have to give yourself a chance first, we'd be battered with two in midfield.
