barry'sboots Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 -------------------------Friedel------------------------- Walker-----------Cuellar--------Dunne-----------Clark ----------------Reo Coker-----Makoun----------------- Albrighton-------------Downing------------------Young ----------------------------Bent------------------------ but it will probably be Petrov in for NRC. I agree with your side and your comments re Petrov and NRC. I would also rather see Cuellar in at CB for Collins probably, although again Ged appears to prefer Dunne & Collins. I would like to see much more fluidity in the three behind Bent and see them constantly rotating and taking each others positions. I think this would make them very difficult to pick up. I also think this would be much more of a possibility with Makoun and NRC providing a more energetic shield for the back 4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AVFC-Prideofbrum Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 Darren double on debut. I can see the headlines now.... to be honest though, I think Man City are a cracking side and it'll be a struggle, hopefully 1-1...a good point.

johndunse Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 Tough to call what team he'll put out for this.....with Young and Heskey coming back, Makoun and Bent to add.....take your pick! I think he'll go: Friedel Walker Dunne Collins Clark Downing Makoun Petrov Young Heskey Bent ???? Or maybe Gabby and Bent with Gabby dropping as a 5th midfielder as and when?? Impossible to guess really! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommo Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 Heskey will still be suspended I think. ...............Friedel Walker..Collins..Dunne...Clark ......Reo Coker..Makoun Albrighton..Downing..Young .............Bent/Gabby And when Heskey returns I would probably opt for a 442 system.

Tomaszk Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 Great great signing, but a big blow to Delf who was starting to look a serious contender to start. Up to him to prove he can still get in head of a £24m player, don't let your head drop Nath! Really hope Makoun is available, but far too many stories saying his permit will not be done. I'd go Fried Walker Cuellar Collins Clarke Marcy Marc Makoun Reo Coco Young Bent Agbag --- Not interested in bottlers. When there is work to be done and tackles to be won, Stew disappears. At least Albers gets back to track his men. Put pressure on them and get the ball into forwards feet. Gone for them 2 in the middle because we're going to be doing a lot of defending.

Tomaszk Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 ---------------------Friedel-------------------------- Walker-----Dune------------Collins-----------Clark ------------Makoun--------Petrov--------------- Young--------------Ireland--------------------Dowining --------------------Bent---------------------------Bloody hell that would a turn up for the books. Anyone else keep forgetting he plays for us? I still think there is a player in there somewhere. He'll look better in a team that is in control of possession, a lot like Downing.

LancsVillan Posted January 18, 2011 Moderator Share Posted January 18, 2011 Personally I don't think Makoun will start and I cannot believe the number of people droppig Gabby. I think he'll start too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delphouneso Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 probably wouldn't start Makoun even if he does get cleared in time, as far as i'm aware he's still training with Lyon so starting him against City would really be dropping him in at the deep end. Young--------------Ireland--------------------Dowining --------------------Bent--------------------------- i'd love to see that front four. if only we could get Ireland playing how we all know he can that would be lethal.

markavfc40 Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 Hopefully the buzz created by the signing of Bent will put of few thousand on the attendance and this game can get close to a sell out with a cracking atmosphere. A game I wasn't looking forward to a couple of weeks ago and now I can't wait to get to VP. Hopefully a positive result and then we can really kick on.
