Dinho lad Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 Simpson or Cabaye will get sent off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 Cabaye has been terrible by the way and started getting petulant which is what he does when he knows he is being shit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shearergol Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 We look like a team that is trying to use 4 midfielders, only one of whom is 100% fit, to deal with 5 who are. And we look like a team that hasn't really played together much in the preseason. Cabaye won't be on much past 60 minutes, and Tiote might not either. Both look nowhere near their best. Williamson on and Perch moving forward?? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 Annoyed at how unfit we look. This Ramadam shit is pisstake. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest bimpy474 Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 Got stick earlier for saying 4-4-2 doesn't create enough for us, its only my opinion like. I just think we play better football with 3 central. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 Anita should have started ahead of Cabaye, like. Type of game where he generally just doesn't feature, even when fully fit - which he isn't. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dyeyzzon Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 Pards is quite clearly playing 4-4-2 for Ba, it is the only reason. Ridiculous if its the case, the team come first whatever the formation. Prollly waiting for him to get on some scoring run centrally before slotting him back left in the 4-3-3 once he can score from anywhere. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bimpy474 Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 Formation is not the issue. It is as it takes away so much from Cabs, imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashley17 Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 Amazingly i can get on the net on my phone in the stadium, thats the one positive. Cabaye, cisse, ba and tiote all look off the pace. Ben arfa still magic, but we are being over run in midfield Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
timeEd32 Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 Think Anita will help a lot. I know it's his debut, but he's probably in a lot better shape than Cabaye/Tiote. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dinho lad Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 Annoyed at how unfit we look. This Ramadam shit is pisstake. I reckon it's our crap pre-season "preparations". Not enough minutes for Cabaye, HBA. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 Our full backs need protection, we would have to play a 4-5-1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cubaricho Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 Cabaye must be on Ramadan. Only 20 mins of preseason, played all games with France in the Euros, extended holiday, etc. It was a joke dude. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 Similar to some games last season where we struggled to impose against a 5 man midfield. It's all very well having two strikers but if we let them boss the middle then we aren't going to get them in the game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 We've just brought in a deep lying midfielder who sets up play from the back really well, and so should allow us to set up quite beautifully with Cabaye further forward, and we persist with this? Because Demba wants to play upfront? Unacceptable. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUPERTOON Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 Strange that a fully fit Anita is on the bench whilst Cabaye starts. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stifler Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 Annoyed at how unfit we look. This Ramadam shit is pisstake. Yeah, our own fault really. We never played our first team players in Pre-season, at least not for long enough time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlanSkÃrare Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 Hatem, Jonas and Perch have done well. The rest news to step it up considerably. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

aussiemag Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 The whole team is going to take 2 to 3 weeks to click and get going by the looks of it ... lets hope we grow into the game today more and somehow scrape a result Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prollly waiting for him to get on some scoring run centrally before slotting him back left in the 4-3-3 once he can score from anywhere. He can play in a 3 up top, he doesn't have to play wide, let all three interchange, English teams are so rigid its daft. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest neesy111 Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 So ppl think we had a good pre season then... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Memphis Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 If everyone was fit, I'd say it's crying out for the 4-2-1-3 thing with Anita coming on for Jonas. But everyone's not fit, so Anita and Gosling will likely be on for Cabaye and Tiote. Good shout about Perch moving up and Willo coming on, too. That could well happen.
