Recommended Posts

Bigger game now tommorrow, results have gone well for us tonight.

3 points and we'll be in the top 6 subject to cardiff score. will set up nicely for a game at home to derby which we should win.

Will be blowing on the door of top 2 if thats the case just before another break.

Come on city don't let us down!!

A win tomorrow night really could be what really kick-starts our season. It barely feels like we've moved out of second gear but by Thursday we could be in the play-off places.

Schmeichel

Peltier --- Mills --- Bamba --- Konchesky

Abe (as it's away)

Fernandes --- Johnson

King

Beckford --- Vassell

What I'd like to see. Johnson has to start if he's fit, but sadly I think Yuki could make way for Wellens in my team.

Atleast if we don't win we won't lose too much ground! I think we'll get a result.

We've still NEVER been in the top 6 places under Sven, we've had a few sniffs at it but then ultimately fallen short. These next 2 games could define our season as if we get right in the mixer, it could be hard to budge us.

Come on Leicester, keep this unbeaten run going and do it with a win!

It looks like we are going back to 4-3-3 :rolleyes:

And after City boss Eriksson reverted to a 4-4-2, Nugent faces a fight to regain his starting berth in the side.

The 26-year-old is now back in action and could make his comeback tonight at Middlesbrough (7.45), and Eriksson said he would contemplate accommodating all three of his strikers, Beckford, Vassell and Nugent, as a triple threat.

"We will find a place for him in the team if he is what he was before he got injured," said Eriksson.

"He scored two goals and had chances to score more. Beckford is a centre-forward and I can't see him playing wide, but Vassell and Nugent can both play wide if necessary, so we can play three up front or two up front and one of them wide.

"I look forward to that day because there you have pace and goals. It would be very good."

I wouldn't write 4-3-3 off with them three up top anyway, we ripped some teams to pieces with it last season with Gallagher/Kamara, Yakubu and Vassell so we could do the same with Nugent, Beckford and Vassell.

It's just getting the 3 central midfielders right, Johnson, Fernandes and King or Danns for me.

You know for a fact that he will play Vassell as he is an integral part to our team, therefore only way you can have Nugent, Beckford is to play 4-3-3 :/

Well that's not how the article quotes Sven so playing Vassell wide is clearly an option.

Oh and I don't know anything for a fact tongue.png about team selection considering Vassell was a sub for 5 games last season.

Oh and I'm not stalking youlaugh.gif

Schmeichel

Peltier Mills © Bamba Konchesky

Johnson

Fernandes Wellens

King

Beckford Nugent

Subs: Weale, Pantsil, St Ledger, Abe, Vassell.

Feeling a 2-1 win here, Beckford has got to score sooner rather later, so I'll go for him to get the first goal, Johnson to grab the second.

Just enjoying a spot of brekkie in blaby and perusing the league table.. For me the surprise package so far has to be Peterborough... 13 points already.. Very impressive thus far

I hate the fact that those sheepshaggers are occupying 2nd at the moment, hope we thrash the b******ds on Saturday.

In my opinion, Nugent and Beckford would be excellent up front. Vassell on the left and Dyer on the right. The two central midfielders is a hard decision, but thats what Sven gets paid for.

I find it absolutely hilarious that Florist are in the shitters, and it make me content :thumbup:

But his point was, it has nothing to do with Middlesbrough v Leicester City.
