Thracian Posted 12 September 2005 Share Posted 12 September 2005 It's a nice problem in most ways but picking the team must be getting a bit harder for CL. How would you line-up against Cardiff? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dan_84 Posted 12 September 2005 Share Posted 12 September 2005 I would love to see us play 3-5-2, although I never think it'l happen. Hughes and Williams look brilliant together, yet Levein wastes Hughes on the Left.

Louise Posted 12 September 2005 Share Posted 12 September 2005 Unless there are injuries I think we'll be keeping the same team that started on Saturday. The only person that I could see being dropped is Sheehan, not because he had a bad game but because Levein probably doesn't see him as a regular first teamer and seems to like changing the left back after a game or two anyway.

Louise Posted 12 September 2005 Share Posted 12 September 2005 Who iwll he stick at LB then? Gilbert? Maybe. I was thinking Maybury again. Don't get me wrong, I'd love to see Sheehan start again. I just don't know if he will... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scow Posted 12 September 2005 Share Posted 12 September 2005 Douglas Maybury, Nils, Dublin, Sheehan Sylla, Williams, Hughes, Tiatto De Vries, Hume Subs: Henderson, McCarthy, Kisnorbo, Gudjonnson, Hammond Why would Levein drop Gudjonsson, arguably one our better performers this season, and a level above Williams?

The People's Hero Posted 12 September 2005 Share Posted 12 September 2005 Isn't Hughes a bit doubtful anyway? Thought he picked up another knock. Expect it'll be Joey and Williams in the middle, Hughes perhaps on the bench. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And let paddy sit it out for a while, and earn a position.He gives away far too many free kicks in dangerous positions for my liking. Dublin did okay marshalling our defensive 4.

Mark Posted 12 September 2005 Share Posted 12 September 2005 Hammond has got to play, we'd have never have scored those goals against Sheffield Wednesday if his pace wasn't worrying the defence, and don't forgot that classic mishit shot Douglas Maybury Dublin Johansson Sheehan ........Williams Gudjonsson Hughes Hume ............De Vries Hammond Subs: Henderson, Sylla, McCarthy, Kisnorbo, Stearman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thracian Posted 12 September 2005 Author Share Posted 12 September 2005 Provided they are fit, same side surely. I think he may well find a place for Hume (perhaps instead of Williams seeing as we are away and tucking in the hole behind the centre-forwards). Can't imagine he will change the back line or MDV and Hammond as the two strikers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davieG Posted 12 September 2005 Share Posted 12 September 2005 Momo & Dublin Doubtful. From the OS <h3 class="headline">Boss Previews Cardiff Clash </h3> Craig Levein says another tight defensive display will stand his side in good stead for their away trip to Cardiff on Tuesday evening (7:45pm). The Leicester back line was in fine form in the 2-0 victory over Sheffield Wednesday at the weekend - with the addition of Dion Dublin at centre half proving something of a masterstroke by the Leicester boss. And Levein says his defence will have to be at their best against the freescoring Bluebirds - who have five goals to their name from their last two fixtures. But while Dave Jones' men have been finding the net, they have been equally generous at their own end of the pitch. Levein said: "Cardiff have been scoring a lot of goals, but they have also been conceding them which gives us a bit of hope. "We have got players who can score and our away form has always been quite good. Hopefully we can couple the goals together with another solid defensive display which will give us the chance to win the match." Although Levein's first game in charge was against Crewe at Gresty Road last November, he was on hand to oversee the 0-0 away draw at Cardiff three days earlier. He added: "The first game that I watched after taking on the job was at Ninian Park. Obviously, I didn't have much to say about the on field stuff. I was just good to see the team and get an idea of what job faced me. It was my introduction to Championship football." Meanwhile, with Danny Tiatto definitely out of the game, Levein is now sweating on the fitness of Dion Dublin and Momo Sylla. Levein said: "Normally I name the team the day before, but Dion and Momo didn't train on Monday, although it is nothing too worrying. So we will wait until the day of the game to allow us to see how everybody is." Supporters are reminded that the Cardiff game is an all ticket clash. Tickets will be available from the Walkers Stadium ticket office until noon on the day of the game. Fans will not be able to buy tickets on the gate at Ninian Park.
