Fox92 Posted 14 July 2012 Posted 14 July 2012 Changed a little, but so far; Kasper De Laet -- Morgan © -- St Ledger -- Konchesky Marshall -- Danns -- James/Drinkwater -- Dyer/new winger (sadly, we need a new left winger) Nugent -- Futacs/Vardy Subs: Kennedy, Peltier, King/James/Drinkwater, Dyer/new winger, Waghorn, Beckford, Vardy/Futacs A flat 4-4-2 which has width and an option to aim at up top.
GingerrrFox Posted 14 July 2012 Posted 14 July 2012 kasper de laet, morgan, st ledger, kennedy danns, james, king marshall, nugent, vardy subs logan peltier konchesky drinkwater waghorn beckford futacs
Raw Dykes Posted 14 July 2012 Posted 14 July 2012 kasper de laet, morgan, st ledger, kennedy danns, james, king marshall, nugent, vardy subs logan peltier konchesky drinkwater waghorn beckford futacs That looks alright, but why have you picked Kennedy over Konchesky?
seenitall Posted 14 July 2012 Posted 14 July 2012 Schmeichel De Laet - SSL - Morgan - Konchesky Danns Vardy Marshall King Nugent - Beckford/Waghorn GO TEAM! Looks like a diamond in midfield and we know what happens when we do that.......
Jaspa Posted 14 July 2012 Posted 14 July 2012 Kasper - De Lad -- Morgan - Konch - Drinkwater -- Danns King - Marshall ----------- Nugent - Futacs - Beckford
Danizen Posted 15 July 2012 Posted 15 July 2012 Chester in ahead of a first choice International just back from playing and scoring at the Euros? When you say it like that, it sounds impressive, however the enduring memory of SSL at the Euros is this:
Jaspa Posted 15 July 2012 Posted 15 July 2012 I think St Ledger did pretty well at the Euros Considering the gulf in class of what most players played at, and what he plays Can see him leaving tbh tho
Mark_w Posted 15 July 2012 Posted 15 July 2012 When you say it like that, it sounds impressive, however the enduring memory of SSL at the Euros is this: SSL had a decent tournament to be fair, got his goal. That goal was Ward's fault, not SSL's. That said no reason to think he is any better than Chester/Morgan/Hobbs etc.
Jaspa Posted 15 July 2012 Posted 15 July 2012 When you say it like that, it sounds impressive, however the enduring memory of SSL at the Euros is this: And that last shot is how I remembered him
Langley Posted 15 July 2012 Posted 15 July 2012 And that last shot is how I remembered him on a different night he get's up scrambling and it hits his leg and goes out for a corner. One of those. He looked solid at the Euro's. Mind you they were in a group where they got beat by the winners and the runners up.
Fox92 Posted 16 July 2012 Posted 16 July 2012 He came up against the likes of Croatia, Italy and Spain... Some of these teams contain some of the World's best players. He was no worse than other Ireland players, and he scored a decent enough goal.
MrSpaM Posted 16 July 2012 Posted 16 July 2012 Think its a bit harsh to say he's no good because of the euros, I mean look at their squad and then look at the squads they were playing against. I hope he stays and does well, never thought he deserved half the crap he got on here.
Fox92 Posted 16 July 2012 Posted 16 July 2012 Think its a bit harsh to say he's no good because of the euros, I mean look at their squad and then look at the squads they were playing against. I hope he stays and does well, never thought he deserved half the crap he got on here. Agreed. He has been solid before at this level, one of Preston's key figures.
LCFC FOX Posted 16 July 2012 Posted 16 July 2012 so far? Kasper De Leat St Ledger Morgan Koncheskey Marshall Danns King Drinkwater Nugent Beckford subs - Logan , Peltier , Kennedy , James , Dyer , Vardy , Futacs/Waghorn
kingfox Posted 16 July 2012 Posted 16 July 2012 And that last shot is how I remembered him Well in that game he tackled Iniesta and Silva in the space of five minutes, excellent tackles aswell and won the ball. He had a good tournament one of there better players in my opinion. And from another comment, he is better than Hobbs but can't compare him to Morgan because he is an entirely different player, just the brick of the defence.
Danno Posted 16 July 2012 Posted 16 July 2012 If he was such a good player like you lot make out then why has he been distincty average in the championship?
bald reynard Posted 16 July 2012 Posted 16 July 2012 so far? Kasper De Leat St Ledger Morgan Koncheskey Marshall Danns King Drinkwater Nugent Beckford subs - Logan , Peltier , Kennedy , James , Dyer , Vardy , Futacs/Waghorn I'd have James in for Drinkwater and Vardy for King. Drinkwater and King would move to the bench, with Logan, Peltier, Kennedy, Futacs & Waghorn (no place for Lloyd, unfortunately). Having said all that of course, Peltier WILL be on his way and I wouldn't be surprised if King (if we get a decent bid for him) and Dyer will be moving on as well (and let's hope the bus out, will also have a seat for Gallagher !). Coming IN, has got to be that elusive Centre Back (Chester or whoever - going straight into the First XI) and a Left Winger / left sided midfielder (Carayol, Brady etc) - so then, St Ledger and 'the left sided guy' to the bench, in place of Peltier & King.
Danizen Posted 16 July 2012 Posted 16 July 2012 Think its a bit harsh to say he's no good because of the euros, I mean look at their squad and then look at the squads they were playing against. I hope he stays and does well, never thought he deserved half the crap he got on here. I never said that. I was just pointing out the fact that describing him as 'a first choice International just back from playing and scoring at the Euros' doesn't tell the whole story and doesn't mean he's better than our other defenders. SSL had a decent tournament to be fair, got his goal. That goal was Ward's fault, not SSL's. That said no reason to think he is any better than Chester/Morgan/Hobbs etc. He did not have a decent tournament. He had an abject tournament like the rest of the Ireland squad. He played like a five year-old against Spain.That being said, there's no reason he can't become our first choice centre back, this season. As someone said, He won't be facing the likes of Torres and Silva in the Championship.
Fox92 Posted 16 July 2012 Posted 16 July 2012 If he was such a good player like you lot make out then why has he been distincty average in the championship? I think most, if not all, of our players looked average last season. I rate St Ledger though. As I said before, he has been impressive before at this level for Preston, and I believe he can do it again, for us. I also believe the defence will be more solid, as a unit, this forthcoming season.
Out Foxed Posted 16 July 2012 Posted 16 July 2012 just as long as nigel doesn't play marshall on the wing, that's all i care about.
Craig Posted 16 July 2012 Posted 16 July 2012 just as long as nigel doesn't play marshall on the wing, that's all i care about. Yeah, why play a winger on the wing, eh?
