Guest BlacknWhiteArmy Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 I think Colo will be back for Swansea and Williamson for Bolton. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magpie Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 Alan Smith at centre half? Obviously a disaster waiting to happen but possibly some leadership and authority at the back? Also am I right in thinking Gosling can play there? Seen a few people on FB saying he can?!!? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oakie Doke Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 CB could be Smith's 'new' position. Afterall his career really excelled when he moved from striker to midfielder... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magpie Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 I know it sounds fucking ridiculous, infact is ridiculous, but the thought of starting with Simpson and Perch at the back even against Norwich fills me with dread. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

cp40 Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 When we get to 35 points we should just play 5 forwards for the rest of the season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 Do we not have some 6' 4" lad in the youth team or reserves we can promote? Surely these situations are what those teams are for? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeyt Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 I think for the majority of games Cabaye's been decent rather than great. Guthrie's been the better midfielder over the last month. Is that not just due to Cabaye doing the Tiote style donkey work though? Nah, Guthrie's done more of the donkey work than Cabaye Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 We need two out-and-out strikers on the pitch to keep the ball in their half as much as possible and take the pressure off whatever rag-tag defence we have available. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 Rather see Shola at the back This is actually an excellent idea under the circumstances. Chris Sutton did this and Dion Dublin also with great success. I think it is easier for a skilfull front man to make the transition back rather than a centre back to go forward. Alan Shearer could have played another season if he had done this and still come forward for free kicks,corners etc. Would have scored another 10 goals.

I actually can't remember Shearer scoring from corner during his last season as a forward. Plus, a traffic cone would probably do a better defensive job than Shola.

Anderson Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 If Tiote's fit I'd throw him in at centre half, not ideal, but it's got to be a better bet than Simpson or Perch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
