Team vs Cardiff?

[EssexR]

Nah its ###### mate. We dont need Henry in there, especially at home. Luongo can win the ball as well, as can Faurlin. You dont need a holding midfielder as much anymore, thats old school. Henry aint a starter and nor should he be, we have more talented player who can play in there and control the game.
Nah I'd rather play Doughty or Gladwin in there or Diakite... Fark Henry, i've had enough of him.

I see what you're saying as seeing his name on the teamsheet doesnt exactly excite me either. For the record my team selection wasn't based on who I wanted to see out there, rather who I thought Ramsey would go for.

Unfortunately, Faurlin wont be used as much as we'd like. The only reason Henry is getting ANY game time is because they dont want Faurlin do do himself in again. Have to respect that they are doing whats best for Ale there despite us fans wanting to see more of him.

Gladywn is a winger/number 10

Diakite COULD play that role but Ramsey obviously doesnt trust him.

Gobern is basic at best.

Doughty again is more of a forward thinking player in the same mould as Luongo...who just so happens to be about 1000000000x better than him.

Tell you who else could play that role that everybody seems to forget and most want rid of....SANDRO. When he's back in the UK and ready to play he'd be my 1st pick for that holding midfielder role.

Sorry mate, i thought that was who you wanted in your line-up!
Sandro and Luongo all day...

Konchesky seems to think he is starting today - https://twitter.com/konch3/status/632476645471948800

[nasser95]

would go with:

---------------Green---------------
Perch---Onuoha---Hall---Kpekawa
---------------Henry---------------
------Luongo---------Faurlin------
Phillips---------------------Chery
---------------Polter---------------

If we are going to stick to the 433 we have been playing. Try some 'Barcelona-esque' football since we have the personnel to. Henry the destroyer similar to Busquets with Luongo doing the running from midfield a-la Iniesta and Faurlin spraying Xavi-esque passes. Phillips and Chery constantly having the choice of moving in or crossing because of Polter's hold up play and strength.

Haha I never said anything about doing it well, Just about doing it like that but about 10000x slower

[Ranger]

two up front would be great at home but think CR has his game plan set out think CA will have a point to prove just hope he gets the support from midfield when he up by him self. hope the set piece's are sorted and we keep a clean sheet and also I win the lottery and dont have to go to work tonight !! pass the meds pls

[Webb1977]

Yeah. Fair point regarding Diakite. My bad. Faurlin.

Not alone mate, I'd be interested to see him in there too.

[Hubble]

Odds on Ramsey would go for a safety first approach. One up front, Konchesky and Hill and Henry. Reminds me of the previous incumbent.
