Lush Vlad Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 Is Janmaat a doubt for this? I wouldn't want to see Anita at right back. They would just get Mbokani or Jerome, to peel off to the back post and pump long diagonals to them. They'd win every header and completely ruin Little Vurn. No idea what to go with for this game. But it's quite worrying, that yet again, we don't seem to have any idea what our best team is?! McClaren was still tinkering after months in charge, now the fans are all in doubt, as well. In Rafa's defence, he's only been here two minutes and we've had a fair few out injured. So I'm sure he'll take a bit of time to figure it out. But it's still a concern. As it's not like we have much time to get it right. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 If he's out, could see Mbemba go to right-back and Taylor/Coloccini back? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lush Vlad Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 If he's out, could see Mbemba go to right-back and Taylor/Coloccini back? Yeah. I think that would be the most likely outcome. Who have we got for left back?! Sissoko?................ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teasy Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 I doubt Janmaat would even be there to defend a header even if he was "playing". But aye hopefully we've got enough defenders back to play someone else there, Mbemba or Taylor. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

nufcjb Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 Don't know who should play alongside Shelvey. Tiote should be the one but don't know where he's gone to. Anita? Saivet? Small but not the robust type we need to let the others go forward. Not Colback please. So who? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The College Dropout Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 0-3 It needs to be this to take us above them! A nice 6 goal swing. 2-0 would take us level on goal difference, they would have scored one more goal mind. Not sure how the tie breakers work. A win, a 1-0 win will do. We really need to win at least four games, and with Palace, Norwich, Villa and Swansea to play it's not looking completely impossible. 4 points from the reverse fixtures. Double the points probably won't be good enough. Would be ecstatic with 0-1. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it was obvious why did you suggest him in the thread for our game at Norwich? 'Not Colback please' as a partner for Shelvey in this game? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But aye hopefully we've got enough defenders back to play someone else there, Mbemba or Taylor. I was going to say, the amount of times I've seen defenders peeling off Janmaat and scoring at the far post only for him to turn round and look what happened in complete surprise - I doubt it would make much difference.

Guest jackie9 Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 Norwich struggle to stop conceding in their home games having only 4 clean sheets out of their 15 games ,but also they tend to score as they have in 12 out of 15 games. Very likely we will concede in this unless Rafa can work his magic in time,so we need our attackers to be on their game. Norwich keepers Declan Rudd and John Ruddy are vulnerable to making errors so I hope we pepper their goal at every opportunity.Long shots,deflections,rebounds,everything. Would like to see maybe Perez dropped and Cisse alongside Mitro as I'm positive 1 of them will be able to get a goal. Bringing Perez on late on will be a nice option too. Cisse is our best bet to get a goal or two which we need a lot now Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
