Ok.

Your back 5 is what i`d have... But no King or Danns ?

I'm not sure.

I don't know where Danns will fit in, not bothered about King.

If we sign a striker, I'd push Nugent out wide and Dyer would be dropped.

Ok.

3 people seem to have agreed with me.

You include Dyer yet you're not bothered about King?

He'll be one of the first names on the teamsheet and imo we should build the midfield around him.

And? I said 'ok', I didn't disagree with you, I said 'ok'.

I only included Dyer because I don't rate Gallagher. If we were to sign a striker, Dyer would be dropped and Nugent would be forced out wide like I said.

And no I'm not bothered about King. He doesn't get stuck in enough or involved enough and does lack pace to build a team around him. You say Abe isn't cut out for this league yet he's probably the best defensive midfielder we have.

I think the whole point is of Svens team is there isn't a starting 11 but just two good options (with a flexible Spare)

____________________________Schmiechal___________________________ Flexible Spare

______________________________Weale_____________________________ (Smith)

________Pantsil____________Mills________Bamba__________Konchesky___ (Tunchev)

________Peltier____________Ball_________St Ledger________Berner_____

_______________Johnson_________King___________Wellens____________(Moussa)

_______________Danns__________Oakley___________Abe______________

______________Nugent__________Howard_________Gallagher___________ (Schlupp, Kermogant- one will go)

_____________Dyer_____________Waghorn_________Vassell___________

I think Oakley and Waghorn are both likely/ should be replaced and then thats a team of 22 that could play in any combination depending on the away/ form/ injuries

Just about spot on with the structure and thinking. Probably looks like the white board in Svens office as what he was trying to build. Only change will occur when he brings in a new sriker and possibly a new attacking wide player.

In the absence of any further signings, assuming no injuries and that Johnson is 100%, the team I'd go with (and I think Sven might too) is:

Schmeichel

Pantsil

Mills

Bamba

Konchesky

Wellens

Johnson

King

Gallagher

Nugent

Vassell

Posted

Schmeichel



Pantsil Mills St. Ledger Konchesky

King Danns

Nugent Johnson Gally

Striker

Fernandes would be perfect in our 3 man midfield going on what I've seen of him.

Love the 4-2-3-1 formation! Gives you a perfect balance defensively as well as in attack. Would suit the players we have very well, really do hope we sign another striker that we can focus our 'front four' around, someone that can feed off all the service he'll be getting from the abundance of players behind him.

Something like a 4-2-1-2-1 formation:

Schmeichel

Konchesky

Mills

St. Ledger

Pantsil

Danns

Johnson

King

Gallagher

Vassell

Nugent/That magic 20+ goals striker

Posted

Can we not just sneek on 15 players. Sure ref wont see. too many players to decide between. like wellens and abe are too good to be dropped but then king, danns and johnson all are too good to not play.

From the teams Sven has picked in Pre season, I'm pretty sure that his starting 11 will be Kasp Peltier Bamba Mills Konchesky Wellens King Johnson Gally Vassel Nugent. If we get another striker then Vassel will be dropped. Peltier instead of Pantsil because he gets forward a lot more, similar to Naughton.

If the rumours are true, the following could be our actual squad, which I would be more than happy with:

____________________________Schmeichel___________________________(Smith)

______________________________Weale_____________________________

________Pantsil__________Bamba_________Mills___________Konchesky___ (Berner, Kennedy)

________Peltier_________St Ledger_______Tunchev___________Ball_______

_______________Danns_________Fernandes___________Johnson_________(Oakley, Moussa, Moreno)

______________Vassell____________Nugent_________Gallagher__________ (Waghorn, Schlupp, Howard,

_____________Townsend________(New Striker)_________Dyer____________ N'Guessan, Kermorgant, Crncic)

Posted

My eleven would be (4-1-2-3):

Schmeichel

Pantsil, Mills, St Ledger, Konchesky

Wellens

King, Johnson

Vassell, "new striker", Gallagher

subs: Weale, Bamba, Dyer, Danns, Nugent.

Pretty much how I see it. I thought Townsend was like 80% coming so hopefully still is. I actually think St Ledger will be ahead of Bamba too. Other than that, spot on! I think players like Dyer and Vassel could hopefully surprise us this year and be excellent coming off the bench for us as they are determined to prove themselves.

I guess Sven is set on 4-3-3 this season, which I guess in modern football is a nice system to play. Hopefully we can still play with width

I think a lot of the best 22 players will be rotated throughout the season, so maybe players like Bamba and St Ledger will start roughly the same number of games. I agree with you about Dyer and Vassell. Vassell especially - he hadn't played in a long while when he joined us, and now he's had a full pre-season I think he could well be the most improved player in our squad over last season.

I expect we will be employing formations like 4-3-3, 4-1-3-2 and 4-3-1-2, considering how many CMs and how few proper wingers we have. Don't worry about the width, though. The full backs and wide forwards will provide this, while the extra man in midfield keeps the balance defensively.

Am definately seeing us employe a 4-1-3-2 away from home, with Gelson sitting behind johnson, danns and king with Darius and Nugent up top..

Yes, definitely. And if we need a goal towards the end of the match, we can easily switch to an attacking 4-3-3 by taking off one CM for a forward.

Pantsil - Mills - Tunchev - Konchesky

Fernandes

King ---------- Johnson

Gallagher --------------------------- Vassell

Nugent

Not convinced with Bamba really and honestly haven't seen much of St. Legder so I'm sticking Tunch in there.

Vassell cannot cross to save his life so if he's on the left he can cut in and try and score some goals this season. Gally is a good striker of the ball and his corners aren't bad so if he's on the right he can put some decent crosses in. :whistle:
