cosofsaunders Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 guzan lowton vlaar clark bertrand bacuna westwood delph weimann benteke agbonlahor agbonlahor plays even with one leg hanging by a thread. please please pleas be fit. hes so key to our play its so disappointing when hes out. we seem to be completely mirroring last season with the defense looking more solid, i just expect us to win for that reason. im going for 2-0 benteke and vlaar..

daggy_333 Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 If Gabby is out I can see the 5-3-2/3-5-2 returning... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wainy316 Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Even if Gabby is not fully fit, he has to be on the bench. Worked last time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hev Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 (edited) Fed up if Gabby not playing - he is crucial to us - especially in Derby games How come our players seem to take so long to get back after an injury. I am sure even I would have recovered from falling over the hoarding by now - but then I guess I don't have to run around playing football !

Wainy316 Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Gabby always has niggles, that seem to stretch to frustratingly longer periods than initially anticipated. He's never had a serious injury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulC Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Gabby hasn't even trained so the chances of him being fit are very small and i wouldn't want to risk him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AshVilla Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 I'm expecting 3 points then again were at home and baggies are below us in the table so we will probably roll over and hand them an easy victory plus we have looked good in games before then in the following fixture looked complete and utter gash will be interesting to see if the trend continues Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samjp26 Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 With Gabby out I think we'll see Holt paired up with Benteke up top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we will see the 4-3-3 with allbrighton left and wiemann right if gabby is out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been wanting to see Albrighton whipping in crosses to Benteke for a while now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MackHaakon Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Gabby out is a disaster. He is the Vlaar of our forward line. Or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chappy Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 (edited) Think it would be more of a disaster if he wasn't fit for Everton on saturday Edited January 28, 2014 by chappy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MackHaakon Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Think it would be more of a disaster if he wasn't fit for Everton on saturday I agree that in away games in general he seems vital to our game plan. However, at home he is one of very few people in the team who can actually get past a defender while keeping control of the ball. Without him I suspect we'll see even more of the hoofing. Hopefully fit for Everton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robbie09 Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 If Gabby is out and as Mel appears to favour playing a high line I would be tempted to play Tonev. I think his pace would cause The Boggies all sorts of issues especially if Lugano and Ridgewell are playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
