I know nothing......but I see that in those four we have Tevez goals, front running and defending from the top. Team captain. If he's fit - he starts.
Dzeko will give us a presence in the box, someone to take the midfiled pressure away, hold the ball up, consolidate possession when we steal/clear the ball.
Silva is the creative genius. If he's fit he starts.
Balo will start on the bench for a number of reasons:-
1) He cannot hold the ball up as well as Dzeko so cannot fill that role.
2) We will need an extra man in the middle that we could afford to forgo last night. Fulham will not be the pushovers that Aris were.
3) He is not totally upto speed yet since the lay off.
4) He is not on footballing form. His body language is not quite right. He should have squared the ball for Dzeko's hatrick last night but choose to shoot. Fine if it goes in- it hit the post and the opposition lived on for another twenty minutes before the final nail.

most average defences are going to cr*p themselves when they see a team sheet with those 4 names as the attack they are facing.
Aris looked like rabbits caught in headlights for the first 20 mins last night, and i don't blame them.
No-one is suggesting that front-loading the attacking options will work against stonger teams, but vs Wigan + West Ham it puts the opposition on the back foot straight away.
Exactly. Super Mario is the X-Factor. Allowing others such as Dzeko to be liberated from opponents focussing on him the lone striker. See Dzeko 2nd goal with only one defender covering him only initially. Now our opponents (CBs especially) are spread out covering our offensive threat.
The thing is that when we counterattacked we have the quality & creative spark. We don't stutter & we have more options upfront.

Against Fulham we have to come on strong in the 1st 20 mins.
No half measure or being tentative.
We must take the initiative. Carpe diem and crap on them forwith.

Mario makes the difference for Dzeko to be liberated. As the thread say Silva+Tevez+Dzeko+Balo..
We cannot let Fulham settle down & dictate a slow pace.

As long as Tevez set in the service of the team, it will work.
That New Setup means, not many balls will be won by Dzeko & Ballo, so the Opps are going deeper, which means more Work for Barry&DeJong/Yaya.
At this Point, big respect to Barrys Performance against Aris, he fits double-space, for him&Silva, who really has to be work on his Defence attitues. Im remember an Adam Johnson who was really good at the defence.
His body language isn't right. I thought that was obvious to everyone?Mancio said:ALL OUR LIVES said:I know nothing......but I see that in those four we have Tevez goals, front running and defending from the top. Team captain. If he's fit - he starts.

Bluemoon is a very lucky place. you never lack the consulence of some expert psychologist.
the day when people will stop watching players and manager facial expressions and body language will always be too late.
