Posted December 17, 200717 yr What do people feel is our best formation? a) when everyone is available and B) when the African boys are away For me: a) ---------------Cech Ferreira ----- Carvalho----JT------Cole ----------------Mikel -------Essien------------Lampard Cole-------------------------Kalou --------------Drogba B) ---------------Cech Ferreira------Carvalho---JT------Cole --------Ballack------Lampard Malouda--------Cole----------Sinclair -----------Sheva If JT is out then Alex seems a pretty sound replacement. Belletti and Bridge are good cover for full back. Midfield we have Sidwell and Maka as cover. Wide we are really short of quality. I have given up on SWP after his last two performances. Let's give Sinclair a bit more of a chance. Upfront we have Pizzaro to cover for Sheva so again we need to strengthen. Really we need a top quality winger and striker in january.
December 17, 200717 yr Agree with the first one but would alternate Ferreira and Belletti dependent on the quality of oppposition going forwards and if I felt we needed more going forwards, not much for me between cash and Wayne either ---------------Cech Ferreira ----- Carvalho----JT------Cole ----------------Mikel -------Essien------------Lampard Cole-------------------------Kalou --------------Drogba without the African boys I would go for this although I would like to see a replacement for Pizzaro in January ---------------Cech Ferreira------Carvalho---JT------Cole --------Ballack------Lampard Cole---------------------Malouda ----------------Pizzaro --------Sheva-- Leaves us no cover up front but would move Joe up behind either striker if one had to go and bring SWP or Sinclair in for Joe, Defense is easy as Alex is good back up and Maka or Sidwell? for midfield,
December 17, 200717 yr With all of our players fit: Cech Beletti JT Carvalho A.Cole Mikel Essien Lampard Joe Cole Drogba Kalou Without the African players: Cech Beletti JT Carvalho A.Cole Malouda Ballack Lampard Joe Cole Pizarro Sheva
December 18, 200717 yr a) when everyone is available and Cech Belletti - Carvalho - Terry - A. Cole Essien - Mikel - Lampard - J. Cole Drogba - Shevchenko :( when the African boys are away Cech Belletti - Carvalho - Terry - A. Cole Wright-Phillips - Makelele - Lampard - J. Cole Shevchenko - Pizarro or Cech Belletti - Carvalho - Terry - A. Cole Ballack - Makelele - Lampard J. Cole - Shevchenko - Kalou
December 18, 200717 yr does no one rate Bridge anymore I did say for me not much between Wayne and Cash, Also I like Paul Pheonix formation wih Drogba and Sheva but feel we might need a better passer of the ball from midfield to get the best out of it, Maybe Ballack?
