Have Juv played any other pre season games yet?

 

They've played Mezzocorona(5-0, 18/7) and the Chinese Olympic team (4-0, 22/7). Fielded seperate teams in both halves in both games. Giorgio Chiellini partnered Jorge Andrade in central defence in both games...I'll be interested to see if he's involved in this game...any squads announced yet ???

Shame Viduka won't be playing, this'll be a decent test for us against a good defence. I'll be in the leazes end, just hoping we don't get any more injuries as we really can't afford any more with the season now two weeks tomorrow.

Luque should start, alongside Martins, so i am going with this as my starting 11:

 

 

                                          Krul

 

                        Carr    Rozenhal  Taylor/Ramage  N'Zogbia

 

                                Solano  Geremi  Milner

 

                                    Owen  Luque  Martins

 

 

And bring everyone whos fit on from the bench..

IMO. (also think Zog is wasted at LB but until we sign someone we have no choice)

Looking forward to this. First game that I'll watch under Allardyce, hope that Geremi and Rozehnal can keep up and build on their performances, as from what I've heard, they've been terrific. It'd be nice to see Viduka aswell, atleast for 15-30 minutes or whatever

That leaves us very weak in centre midfield. Milner and Solano will drift out wide.

Not really, Geremi was outstanding against Celtic playing centre mid and Solano is experienced enough to know how to play it.

 

And, we dont really have anyone else to put there atm anyway, with Emre, Barton and Emre all probably not playing.

I see nobby and geremi together in the centre, we have no other option.

                      Given

Carr        roz      Ramage      Hunty

Milner      Geremi        Nobby      Zoggy

            Luque        Martins

solano ramage rozehnal nzogbia

troisi geremi butt milner

luque martins

 

 

bringing in owen, carr, huntington, taylor and ameobi after 45 and some more later on...give troisi 60 minutes against Juve would be very good for him.

butt and taylor will be fit bbut up to sam to decide how much hes willing to risk. personally Nobby in center midfield is the worst decision cause although hes technical hes not that player who can track back all the time. Id rather play Zogbia OR mILNER there if butt really is out.

Nobby      Rozenhal    Hunty    N'Zogbia

 

                                Butt

              Geremi                     

Milner                                    Luque

                              Martins

            Owen

 

Since its a friendly i would give Luque a run out on the left. Since Duff's injured and it looks as though Zoggys been converted to left back. Assuming Owens fit i'd give him and Martins another look up front.

 

P.S Stephen Carr should be nowhere near our football club.

Carr Rozenhal Ramage N'Zogbia

That's what I'd play...

 

Well since Troisi doesn't play CM, you're a square pegs in round holes man.

I'd play that too, I think Samintends to play Geremi in the centre.  I hope we see Owen and Viduka come on for Martins and Luque at some point.

A) It's a friendly B) N'zogbia isn't a left back C) It's a friendly D) Milner isn't an out and out left winger E) It's a friendly F) Luque isn't an out and out striker G) It's a friendly H) We can't all be soopafans like you I) It's a friendly

N'Zogbia is the best left back we have at the moment, and Milner is probably the best we have on the left wing. Not being soopafantastic, just saying that he doesn't play CM. Since it's a friendly, if he's going to play we may as well put him on in his proper position.

Would prefer Carr at right back with Milner and N'zogbia on each wing, but seeing as it's a friendly it doesn't really matter.

God we are really desperate for defenders, so lets see Zoggy at LB against a decent team, then we can put the rest the rumour that he can play there and get on with fkln buying a new LB!!

Newcastle in playing-players-out-of-position-shocker!

Seriously, we don't have a fit CM, except for Geremi, so we either play 4-3-3 or we play a winger as CM, I'd play Troisi CM because he is least likely to play regularly as a winger this campaign
