The NUFC transfer deadline day thread - Summer 2009


Recommended Posts

What about, after the standard back 4,

 

DM: Smith

MC: Guthrie

MC: Nolan

 

Then a front 3 of Ameobi, Lovenkrands and Jonas? Imagine that. Ibra Messi and Henry will be shitting themselves senseless I'd say.

 

I FORGOT RYAN TAYLOR IN THE WHOLE PICTURE!  :frantic:

Will injuries be as bad in the Chamionship? Yes we had a bunch of permacrocks in the Premier League, but would the intensity of the Premier League be partly to blame? Would we see less injuries in the team now that we can control the tempo in our favour?

Injuries if anything will be worse, due to the physicality of the league and the fact there is more games.

Barton would have to be in place of Nolan.

Really? I know it's only been 5 games and he's a million miles from perfect, but Nolan deserves a longer run in the side from what I've seen.

Barton absolutely pisses on Nolan as a footballer. I know he was rough against Leicester but he hasn't had a full pre-season and has just come back from an injury anyway. We'd be daft not to stick with him cos he's our most technically brilliant player.

I'm not convinced, I haven't really noticed there being much more aggression thus far. More injuries for us always seem to be muscular things caused by running, and I can perhaps see these starting to go away this year if they aren't having to run their legs off for 90 minutes just trying to keep hold of a 0-0 draw.

Jonas wouldn't work up front. His attacking instincts aren't that great.

 

I'd suggest (with everyone fully fit)

 

                                                    Harper

    Simpson            Coloccini                      S. Taylor              Enrique

    Guthrie                Barton                          Smith              Jonas

                              Ameobi                        Lovenkrands

 

Subs: Krul, R. Taylor, Kadar, Nolan, Ranger, Carroll, Butt

I think we have a decent squad:

 

Goalies:  Harper (Krul)

 

RBs: Simpson (R.Taylor, Geremi)

CBs: S. Taylor - Coloccini (Kadar-Tozer-Simpson)

LBs: Enrique (Kadar, R.Taylor)

 

Wingers: Gutierres, R.Taylor, Lovekrands, LuaLua (LM: Geremi  ;D)

 

CMs: Smith, Butt, Barton, Nolan, Guthrie, Geremi

 

Strikers: Ameobi, Carroll, Lovekrands, Ranger

 

 

Yep, thats not a bad squad at all for the Championship, IF we keep players fit. Few injuries and players are soon gonna be knackerd, Championship is a long old season.

 

Can't do anything about it now, so just fingers crossed we dont lose many players to injuries, and can get a small amount of rotation going. A canny few weeks we play Sat-Weds-Sat.

 

Couple of loan signings in defence would have been lovely mind.

according to the Chronicle

 

United can still sign "emergency" loan deals until the end of November meaning there is still a chance to sign defender Craig Cathart from Manchester United on a temporary basis despite the closure of the transfer window.
