TOPTOON 0 Posted September 29, 2006 Share Posted September 29, 2006 As we rested Shola against Tallin i wouldn't be surprised to see him start, however i'd be very tempted to go 4411 on this one as if we lose out in midfield we are going even more screwed. Time to be sensible and accept that if we go out with our best in a 442 we are still going to get beat. This way we can frustrate them and maybe nick something. -----------Harper Car---Taylor---Moore---Ramage* Duff---Parker---Butt---Zoggy ------------------Emre ----------Martins Subs **** Krul Bernard* If Bernard is fit and looking sharper it maybe time to throw him in.

Bombadil 0 Posted September 29, 2006 Share Posted September 29, 2006 Pack the midfield and hope for a draw - it's the best we can hope for. I'm tempted to stick a few quid on Rooney getting a hattrick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 34461 Posted September 29, 2006 Share Posted September 29, 2006 Butt and Parker should definitely start in the centre. They won't though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renton 17776 Posted September 29, 2006 Share Posted September 29, 2006 Butt and Parker should definitely start in the centre. They won't though. Fuck right off. I wouldn't let Butt anywhere near the pitch for this fixture! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matty 0 Posted September 29, 2006 Share Posted September 29, 2006 Ameobi and Martins up front I'm hoping. Emre and Parker in the middle, and Taylor and Moore in defence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't let Butt anywhere near the pitch for this fixture! Aye that's cos you're one of the idiots that still thinks he's an undercover agent working for Ferguson. Good chance for him to redeem himself in the eyes of the fans and put the whole thing to bed tbh - instant forgiveness if he boots Ronaldo off the pitch.

Guest Patrokles Posted September 29, 2006 Share Posted September 29, 2006 Yeah, I'd play 4-5-1 too. And it's not 4-4-1-1. It's 4-5-1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Gloom 19824 Posted September 29, 2006 Share Posted September 29, 2006 we may as well have a go. if we try and defend for 90 minutes we're going to get hammered. i'd go with: ---------------harper carr-----taylor-----moore----n'zogbia milner--parker----emre------duff ---------martins----shola Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 34461 Posted September 29, 2006 Share Posted September 29, 2006 Neither's Duff like. I think of the two N'Zogbia is the better bet at left back tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And to think you tease me about my opinions! And you're basing your opinion that Duff is clearly a much better bet at left back that N'Zogbia on what? To be honest, yes. N'Zogbia looks all at sea at left-back. He has no positional sense defensively, he can't tackle, and he'll try and beat his man every time rather than sensibly clearing it. At least with Duff you'd be assured a very sensible, hard-working performance from someone who has played left-back before. EDIT: Sorry, I read it as OR what, not ON what. But I think I answered it anyway. Edited September 29, 2006 by Patrokles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TOPTOON 0 Posted September 29, 2006 Author Share Posted September 29, 2006 Zoggy and duff are no LB's . They'd be wasted there too. They are our best Wingers man! Stick Duff RW and Zoggy on the left. If anyone has to be played out of position its unfortunatly (for him and us) Ramage, he's not great there but with bernard stryggling with fitness and Baba out its the best we can do for now. Zoggy's going to have to come back more to help out if/when we are against it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I think I answered it anyway. This is at odds with your usually INSANELY optimistic view on everything - I would have thought you would have N'Zogbia down as the next Ashley Cole. Anyway, I think N'Zogbia would work hard at left back, would be pinned back enough so that we wouldn't have to worry about him bombing on, and would have sufficient pace and is sufficiently strong to at least give himself a chance of dealing with Ronaldo. I think it's probably a coin toss tbh, but I would prefer to see N'Zogbia at left back, and Duff on the wing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's a moot point anyway and we'll see Ramage there, in all fairness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last time we tried it was in that Uefa game and Duff was on fire, it worked imo, i don't know why he didn't stick with it. I like Milner but i don't think he's quite as good as Duff and Zoggy, just my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
