Lotus Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 Rather play a defender in the back 4. We've got 2 weeks to sort this out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 Anita is a very competent RB though, only weakness is in the air. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 He'd have been useful against the mackems, that is pretty much it. We can muddle by against Narge. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lotus Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 Anita is a very competent RB though, only weakness is in the air. Not good positionally imo. Has pace to make up for that. Anita will be much more useful in midfield against Norwich anyway along Sissoko and Cabaye. Either Santon or MYM at RB for this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest palnese Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 Santon RB, Haidara or Dummett LB. Colo and Taylor, if fit, on the bench. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 Think Willo-Mapou might be able to form a Mertesacker-Koscielny like partnership myself. The last time Colo was consistently good was probably around the time Vermaelen was consistently good. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 I want to change as little as possible tbh. A straight swap. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 Is Dummett able to play on the right at all? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unlucky Luque Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 Anita only played central midfield the last 18 months or so for Ajax. He's been a LB his entire career IIRC Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 Really wouldn't want both our full-backs on their wrong foot. Especially seeing as we're so vulnerable when imbalanced and don't play with any orthodox wingers. Santon RB and Dummett LB, please. Second choice would be MYM at RB and Colo back in, but I think we need to keep our current CBs together ideally. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 Mapou is as intelligent as that Arsenal pair for sure, he reads the game very well. A Ronaldo mocking post won't change my opinion on that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest frazernufc Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 I think this man enjoys the nervousness he creates while waiting for the free kick to be taken after hes crunched someone right on the edge of the area. At first i think what a wanker he is for the needless foul, then when the free kicks over I like the fact he made me live a little bit more on the edge that day.

KDT Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 Mertesacker aside from his pace issues is on a different level too any of our centre backs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah he is, he's totally on a different level intelligence wise to Mbiwa, that's for sure. As I've said on here before, he's a perfect example of an CB who simply knows how to compensate for his lack of athleticism. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benwell Lad Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 I really do want Anita back there, but I think we forget how many headers Debuchy wins in a match from his right back position. He is amazing in the air, will miss that no matter who replaces him. That's what makes me think Pards will most likely go for Mbiwa at RB. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
