Injuries this weekend

From what I've read today, looks like Lescott, De Jong, Bellamy are likely to be OK. Toure, Bridge & Zab are probably 50/50 but we've got the squad now to cope.

Could see Sylvinho's debut & maybe Micah back in defence so we'll just have to score more than they do....
 
It is what having a squad of players is all about. Richards has something to prove since he was dropped so it will be interesting to see his commitment and concentration levels in defending. No qualms about Sylvinho at left back as long as Barry is playing, he will cover him.


Back four could be

Vidal Richards Sylvinho Garido

Vidal Richards Lescott Sylvinho

Richards Toure Lescott Sylvinho

depending on who is fit, will be good to see NMTs training report for today.
 
Our most important players are Bellamy, Adebayor and Barry at the moment.

We are short in defence with the injuries we have Garrido cant play for us again if we want to finish in the top 4, Sylvinho should be able to do a job in there, If Lescott, Toure and Zabs are all out I dont know what we will do, with Nedum and Kompany injured for another couple of weeks at least it would be Richards and Barry at centre half, maybe SWP at right back.

Thats a make shift defence that will ship goals. Anyway this is a must win game have to beat sides like wigan home and away if we want to finish in the top 4
 
For Wigan I'd play:

....................Given....................
Zabaleta...Richards...Lescott...Sylvinho (If Lescotts out play Ben Mee, if Zaba's out play Vidal)

...........de Jong.......Barry............
...................Ireland....................
SWP.................................Tevez/Petrov/Weiss (Change at HT depending on who starts/is fit)
.................Adebayor..................

Bench:

Taylor,

Zabaleta/Toure/Bridge/Ben Mee/Vidal, (McGiverns out on loan aint he?)
Garrido,

Petrov/de Jong/Weiss/Academy midfielder,
Johnson,

Bellamy/David Ball,
RSC. (Id play RSC and Adebayor up front as Wigan are a physical side, but only if de Jong is fit enough to start)

McGiverns out on loan aint he?

Wigan will be a very hard match, their morale is high from Chelsea and we have possibly 5 players of our usual first team out, If someone offered me a nervy 1-0 win I'd rip they're hand off.
