Guest BlacknWhiteArmy Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 Harper Simpson Taylor Coloccini Enrique Guthrie Barton Smith Gutierrez Nolan Ameobi If Carroll's still out we'd be better off going with Nolan just of Ameobi, 'cos Ranger isn't up for this level yet, he needs to be thrown in gradually.

Frazzle Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 If Carroll is fit and replaces Nolan that's our strongest team isn't it? Anyone think Vuckic will keep his place on the bench? Or back in the wilderness? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or back in the wilderness? regarding carroll and nolan i think it depends on the oopsition. away to barnsley i'd probably go carroll, away at cardiff i'd go nolan.

Why? Shola isn't doing too badly in the target man role. The pair of them seem to cancel each other out at times. Wouldn't it be nice to put a pacey grafter with a bit of skill alongside him. There's a lack of penetration that was pretty evident against Sheff Wed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess Xisco might come in but Hughton doesn't seem to rate him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 http://www.nufc.premiumtv.co.uk/page/NewsDetail/0,,10278~1770170,00.html Hughton Hopeful On Injured Duo CHRIS Hughton is optimistic injuries to Carling Cup supersubs Shola Ameobi and Jonas Gutierrez will not prove serious. United will run checks on the pair on Thursday ahead of Monday's home Championship clash with Leicester City but Hughton said: "Hopefully they will be okay. "Shola felt his ankle slightly and made a decision to come off. "Jonas just felt his hamstring slightly again but we are not even sure it's an actual pull. "That's the good news, though we will assess them in the morning. Where we are at the moment, we need all the players available that we can." Hughton also confirmed there were no injury problems with centre-backs Steven Taylor and Fabricio Coloccini, who were not in the side that beat Lee Clark's Huddersfield 4-3. "I left them out of today's game and they will be perfectly fit and able for Monday's game," Hughton said. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
