Hope we can pull off a draw.

Ryan Taylor would likely play left back I'd imagine.  That way you only have one player out of position and a dominant header of the ball in the middle.

 

Just thought of that myself.

 

Beye - Coloccini - Bassong - R.Taylor

 

That's better.

I think Seb will partner Coloccini in the center, with Beye back to RB and Edgar will get a start at LB.

 

Makes sense since Taylor is quite small compared to Edgar

We will need as much height in the side as possible, which is why I also reckon there will be starts for Nolan and possibly Carroll.

Hell's teeth. It's a big blow that but it doesn't leave us totally fucked. Ryan Taylor's wank but atleast it doesn't mean we have to chuck Edgar or Bassong in at left-back. Just means Coloccini gets another game; he'd better be fucking up for it cos we're going to have to rely on him and Bassong.

 

I have faith when there's a Habib, though. :aww:

 

We'll nick a point i reckon, and that won't be a bad result.
