All depends if Oba is back.

 

                                Harper

 

Saylor            Colo              Bassong          Enrique

 

Raylor            Nolan          Butt                Duff

 

                      Oba(please)    Carroll

 

 

With either Stroller and/or Lovelypants up front depending on the fitness of the our strikers

 

I am going for a seriously wildly optimistic 3-1 for us. Goals from whoever can score them.

Realistically I'd hope we line up as.

 

                              Harper

 

S.Taylor        Colo          Bassong      Enrique

 

 

R.Taylor        Butt          Nolan          Duff

 

                   

                    Carroll        Lovenkrands

 

 

Subs; Krul, Edgar, Geremi, Ameobi, Martins, Lua Lua.

 

Just to mix it up, we tried the two big guys against Sunderland and it didn't really work.

I'd go for something like this, roll the dice and see what happens:

 

Harper

R. Taylor - S. Taylor - Bassong - Enrique

Lovenkrands - Nolan - Geremi - Duff

Xisco - Martins

 

Which is what makes these threads so frustrating and pointless because we all know Butt and Ameobi will be playing no matter what.

Carroll is injured.  Take him out and put in Martins.

posted that on the Martins thread earlier. Like how they`ve decided to put this news up today, perhaps to divert attention from the shambles that was yesterday

It's going to be quite difficult to pick up victories away from home with the lack of pace in our team. I doubt Oba will start, maybe Lovenkrands might provide something on the break. Our best bet will probably be to try and keep a clean sheet, win a few free kicks and hope Ryan Taylor sticks one of them in the net.

If Carroll and Colo out, then I guess the starting line-up will be:

 

                    Harper

 

R. Taylor  S. Taylor  Bassong  Enrique

 

 

Geremi      Butt      Nolan        Duff

 

 

          Lovenkrands  Ameobi

Martins will be back. Lovelyhands will play in midfield imo.

I know I have said the opposite in the past but I would be very tempted to give Kazenga a chance in this game instead of Geremi. I haven't seen much of him so he could not be ready but he seems to have pace and is capable of scoring a cracker every now and then (although thats based on youth/reserve games). I am just scared of the lack of pace and movement in a midfield comprising of Geremi, Butt, Nolan and Duff  :kasper:

Or this, ignore my post Lua Lua is probably injured anyway!  :laugh:

Will be interesting to see Lovenkrands playing in midfield as there seems to be a consensus of opinion that he wasn't too good out wide for Rangers, and was better employed as a forward. It might work as I see us playing more direct football in any case for the rest of this season.

No Colo :( means Tyalor back to CB, and he has been okay at RB.
