Tiotes Witch Doctor Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 Fully believe we are capable of 3 points here, but West Brom are one of those niggling teams we seem to struggle with. Went for the loss because I don't expect our score 1/2 then sit back tactic to carry on working. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

buzza Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 With no disrespect to willo, I think we should bring Colo back into the middle with Mapou. WBA attackers are quick and agile which are more suitably muted by the attributes of Colo/Mapou, if they still had Lukaku I would deffo say willo to stay in. Colo also gives us another dimension bringing the ball out and turning defense into attack, we want to bring the game to them rather than hoofball... My other shout is for Hatem to be brought on at 60 mins for Shola as he looked electric last week for the five or so mins he got... My team: -------------------------Krul-------------------------- Debuchy-----Mapou--------Colo----------Santon Sissoko-------Cabaye------Tiote--------Gouffran -----------------Remy-------Sherla-------------- bring on Hatem and Anita to suit....

I like Colo for what he offers in bringing the ball out and he ain't a bad defender, hasn't had the best of times lately but he is class... so I would have willo out for this one.

Mole_Toonfan Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 Aye I don't rate Long as high as some do on here but its a case of horses for courses.... Everything Long is good at Colo is poor at... when you consider they have anichebe as well I'd say Mapou and Willo is the most suitable partnership for this.

buzza Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 Agree there... But I would prefer to get Colo back to 100% as willo is already playing at his max and there is no more to come from him whereas Colo is playing at 85% at the moment and is the equal of Willo, but could be so much better given the chance i.e. run of games. P.S. Could all blow up in my face if him and Mapou have another "everton" together.... aaayyyy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 They're compact at the back with quick and tricky attacking players in Sessengnon, Amalfitano and Berahinio, they'll sit back and try and get us on the break, the kind of team that can get a result against anybody but seem to seriously underperform against anybody too as very few of the squad are really anything better than average but well drilled. Trick will be if we don't give them too many opportunities to break from Tiote and Cabaye controlling it, which they should. I think they're most dangerous at 0-0 and won't offer much threat once behind as it'll disrupt their gameplan. Of course Pardew will take this to mean defending the lead... Actually our current formation which relies on hard work and Shola up front is a good one against a team like WBA, because we'll probably not bomb forward as much and that will give them less space behind us to counter. Keep a compact unadventorous shape and there's always a chance one will drop nicely for Remy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 Who ever plays up front for them will make Colo their rag-doll. Long's pace and movement will kill Colo, Anichebe's strength will kill Colo. We should go Wilpou. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Long is a worky ticket who has got under Colo's skin on more than one occasion and caused him to lose his discipline. He's also a very good player.

MYM has to start but if we are that concerned about Long I'm not sure how Willo can be the answer either. Also I doubt Colo would be stupid enough to lose his discipline against Long one more time.
