olliemort Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 I would tempted to start Sol for Perch for the long balls though Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exiled in Texas Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 i just wish the refs would play to the rules of throw ins (5-7secs??) when we played them at home last time he was taking a good 15-20seconds each time. There is no such law. The closest is requiring a keeper to release the ball within 6 seconds. There is nothing similar for a throw in. Only a general misconduct for delaying a restart - but that's not specifically defined. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

afar Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 I would start Sol ahead of Williamson tbh. Also would bring Jonas back in for Nolan, with Ben Arfa playing just off Carroll, and Jonas on the left. But that's never gonna happen Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tooj Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 I'd play Colo right-back and Sol in the middle for this game. I know it's not ideal, but I think Perch will get hammered as Pulis will identify him as the weak link and aim high balls into his area all games.

Guest BlacknWhiteArmy Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 Should be unchanged from Everton (With Krul of course), I think we'll do alright. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geordie Ahmed Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 After Shola's performance maybe it is worth going 4-4-2 BUT doubt very much we will see a changed side from the Everton match Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
afar Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 I would start Sol ahead of Williamson tbh. Also would bring Jonas back in for Nolan, with Ben Arfa playing just off Carroll, and Jonas on the left. But that's never gonna happen Why? Because Williamson is a penalty waiting to happen most of the time, Sol gives us more from a leadership point of view. Thought Sol and Colo together last night, looked pretty good. Williamson has been a steady eddy so far, but just think he's gonna get called for the holding he does constantly at some point. He reminds me a bit of Bassong who did very well for us but was always a little borderline. If he stay of the right side of the line he looks good but wouldn't take much to push him over.

afar Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 Raylor instead of Perch please Perch has been fine, the lad can't win on here. Probably stoke's best player is their left winger and I would rather have the better defensive player in my squad against him than the one that can't ping in a great freekick.

Dr. Nguyen Van Falk Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 We REALLY need a better RB. Roll on January. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
binnsy Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 I'm a big fan of young Krul but am slightly concerned about him for Sunday as his weakness is his decision making and coming out for crosses and that will be tested against a team who will test him with the crosses and long throws. However this is a game when we really need the 3 points, we already blew it against Blackpool after the the good results agaisnt Villa and Wolves and now we can't afford to slip up again after the great week we've had. Beating the likes of Blackpool and Stoke and the other bottom 12 sides at home are the key to us staying up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Begbie Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 People expect a win against Stoke because they are shit etc. Its typical us to draw or loose this game like we did against Blackpool. My prediction is a dull 1-1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlanSkÃrare Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 Just hope we play keep playing the sort of possession football we played against Everton (first half especially) on Sunday, that's the way to beat them. Carroll vs Shawcross and Huth should be entertaining. I reckon Ben Arfa could give them hell if we keep it on the ground enough. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
