Team to face Blackburn

[bluwes]

If he plays Robinho AND Tevez I doubt it will be 4-3-3. Bridge would be too exposed. We can do this at home but not away.

For Robby and Tevez to play I imagine this:

Richards-Ned-Lescott-Bridge
----------De Jong
Tevez----------------Barry
-------------Robinho
---------Ade

So we'd have to leave out Ireland. I think my first line-up is more likely or that above with Ireland for Robinho.

You would'nt need to leave Ireland out if you picked 11 players !!

LOL!

I did check twice aswell weird.

Ok that looks good then.


Richards-Ned-Lescott-Bridge
------De Jong-Barry
Ireland----------------Tevez
-------------Robinho
---------Ade

This certainly seems to be the favourite so far.

We will have different teams for different games this season IMO and Blackburn Away will be tough Away game to start with, I actually dont think both Robbie and Tevez will start on the opening day!

But why would you take out Robinho for a physical match, and then replace him with Petrov who's even more of a wuss?

I think we will be too exposed in the middle of the park. Need 3 in the middle. That is where the game is won. I do however feel more and more that we lack depth in the middle. Zab is OK, Johnson question mark, Elano set to leave? We need another box-to-box midfielder with a fighting attitude to give us those points away from home to cover Ireland and Barry.

Yeah, fair point - It could be Barry on the left with De Jong in the middle for more bite, or a new left mid ??

But I honestly think Robbie will be on the bench for the rovers game.
