Only because I dont think Tevez will be match fit

 

[AntMcfc]

A back line of Richards-Onouha-Toure-Bridge just isn't good enough. We desperately need a top class CB, Lescott will be good but I really do want better.

------------------Given----------------
Richards--Toure--Lescott--Bridge
------Ireland--De Jong--Barry------
--------Tevez--Ade--Robinho--------

That will come 5th, I'm so optimistic about this season because as an attacking force that is something special, although I just feel that defence doesn't have the quality and cohesion to lead us to the top 4 and it will be our downfall. I'll be very happy with 5th this season, so I'm not going to get frustrated with seeing that, but what does frustrate me is knowing we could have done better in the market defensively and perhaps pushed on for that 4th spot.

 

[Pughie]

i reckon it will be:
--Robinho--Adebayor--Tevez

--Barry----de Jong----Ireland

-Bridge-Lescott-Toure-Richards

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

We will also need a second eleven if we are to challenge the tp 4 which i reckon will be:

---Bellamy----Santa Cruz

-Petrov-Delph-Johnson-SWP

-McGivern-Onuoha-Kompany-Zaba

--------Taylor------

with a couple of spares:
Rasmus Elm - MC
Ben Mee - DC
Vladi Weiss - AMR
Gunnar Nielsen - GK

Lescott is he signs if not Onuoha


Subs:

Santa Cruz

[supercity36]

.........................given
mad zab.......onouha....toure.........bridge
.....................de jong (c)....................
.............ireland.........barry..................
...........tevez...........robinho.................
.......................RSC (think ade wont be as effective against teams like blackburn)

bench:

taylor
richards
dunne
johnson = kompany when fit
wiess
adebayor
bellamy

honestly think wiess could come better than sweep. he actually HAS an end product

 

[Toney’s bookie]

think ade wont be as effective against teams like blackburn

To be fair to him he scored a hat-trick at Ewood park last season....I'd settle for that.

 

[Freddan77]

I'm guessing:

richards--toure--onuoha--bridge
---------zab---de jong--------
-----Barry----------Ireland----
------------Rob--------------
-------------Ade------------

Tevez not match fit

A rarely seen 4-2-2-1-1

Or same as everyone else thinks if Tevez is fit
