team for tomorrow?

what is it? is bellamy fit? heres my team with and without bellers



with:

................................given..............................
richards.......toure.................lescott..........bridge
...............de jong................barry.....................
tevez.....................ireland......................bellamy
............................adebayor............................

tevez should be able to play right wing, if not play sweep. it would be lethal and tevez would provide richards some cover (lets face it he needs it)


without:

............................given..........................
richards..........toure..........lescott.......bridge
.................de jong..........barry..................
swp................................................petrov
....................tevez.......adebayor...............

lot more attacking formation hence the 2 holders

Re: team for tomorrow?

Tough one to call tomorrow. I think the defence sorts itself out and Kompany will be on the bench but start on Wed. I think he might rest SWP but not sure if he will drop Petrov.

I will go with a midfield of:

Bellemy ... De Jong ... Barry ... Petrov

with Ade and Tevez.

It means Kompany, Zab, Santa Cruz, Ireland and SWP should get run outs in midweek.

3-0 Thrashing! SWP, Tevez, Bellamy

Is Bellers getting his goal after coming off the bench then?

Aye in the 89th min too! :D

 

[samharris]

whilst some around us are losing their heads we have to stay focused and get the 3 points tomoz...

Looks good to me that....

Re: team for tomorrow?

IMO midfield three of Ireland, De Jong, Barry. Front three Tevez right, Bellamy left, Ade. Gives midfield solidity, those three up front will cause anyone trouble and both Tevez and Bellers will track back and help the midfield out.

RB should be Micah, albeit acknowledging his limitations, but against Fulham one would hope he'll spend more time going forward than defending.

Just the job.

Re: team for tomorrow?

I'd like to see Ireland play tomorrow. I think he gives us that final ball that we were sometimes missing against Villa and Wigan. Who drops out for him though? I dont know.

I think we should get 3 points with a fit team. I want to see Barry do us proud, i have high hopes for him. I always liked him at Villa Park.

 

[Pam]

Re: team for tomorrow?

Will Ade and Toure be fit then?

 

[mcfcliam]

Re: team for tomorrow?

Toure is and Ade late fitness test.

Re: team for tomorrow?

Think so Pam im hoping Bellamy is as well he's playing out of his skin at the moment.

Re: thoughts on team for tomorrow?

my team......

......................Shay....................

Micah.......Kolo........Lescott....Bridge

Bellers......Ireland......Barry......Petrov

...............Tevez......Ade...............

attacking line up required, Fulham there for the taking.

I agree, esp after seeing Bellers on the right in training on Friday. Although we may see NDJ start ahead of Stevie, but I'd go with that as it is. They'll be sitting deep so we'll need Stevie's guile and runs.

how do you mean after seeing him in training on friday?
are you the number 1 fan?
not taking the piss btw

 

[MCFC BOB]

win please!

 

[smiles]

I'd go for-

--------------Given----------------
Richards--Toure-----Lescott----Bridge
--------------Barry----------------
Bellamy-------Ireland----------Petrov
---------Ade-------Tevez----------


MH's probable team-

--------------Given----------------
Richards--Toure-----Lescott----Bridge
---------Dejong----Barry----------
SWP-----------------------Bellamy
----------Ade----Tevez-----------

 

[SamTheGuru]

Re: thoughts on team for tomorrow?

-----------------Given----------------

Richards--Toure--Lescott--Bridge

-----------------De Jong---------------

------------Ireland----Barry------------

Tevez---------Adebayor-----------Bellamy

This should be the team for today.

 

[chesterguy]

To all those stating this is a must win game if we are serious about being top 4 what I say is CALM DOWN ffs.

We are in October we have lost once and we have drawn at 2 away grounds where Chelsea have lost. Spus lsot yesterday and Villa only drew so does that mean they are not serious.

Fulham are well organised side but will have played 3 games in 6 days a tall order and one that we struggled with last season. I fancy a hard fought home win 2-1

 

[Welsh_Blue]

Had a dream last night that Tevez would score a hat trick today. Just put a fiver on with coral at 22/1.
