foxfanazer Posted 8 August 2012 Share Posted 8 August 2012 Fair enough, we'll see come the Posh game, but I doubt it. I think Pearson will line up, Kasper - De Laet - Whitbread - Morgan - Konchesky - Marshall - James - Drinkwater - Knockaert - Nugent - Vardy But I'd love it if he played Marshall CAM, with Vardy and Knockaert on the left and right hand side of a front three. I'd definitely give Marshall a chance there too. Could be scary in that position Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hbkkids Posted 8 August 2012 Share Posted 8 August 2012 what is the point of guessing the line up? because whatever anyone says or whatever team anyone would play it is up to Nigel at the end of the day. in Nigel we trust.... :pearson: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stillwater Posted 8 August 2012 Share Posted 8 August 2012 Think the starting 11 against Sunderland, will be what he goes with against Posh. Hope he doesn't but fear NP will go to his old boys still so don't be surprised if fit to see King, Gally, Dyer even Wellens if he was fit starting the game.

Surreyfox Posted 8 August 2012 Share Posted 8 August 2012 Kasper De laet Whitbread Morgan Konch James Knockeart Marshall Vardy Beckford Nugent What a team! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leicester_Numan Posted 8 August 2012 Share Posted 8 August 2012 Kasper De Laet -- Morgan -- Whitbread (hopefully fit) -- Konchesky Marshall -- Danns -- Drinkwater -- Knockaert Vardy -- Nugent This is probably the most likely team. Nugent & Vardy would suit a more counter-attacking style and would probably be better away from home. We all know what Posh are like though, they'll come at us and Nugent & Vardy could reap the benefits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ttfn Posted 8 August 2012 Share Posted 8 August 2012 I'd go: Schmeichel De Laet Morgan Any fit centre back Konchesky Danns King Gallagher Marshall Dyer Nugent I think NP will pick Drinkwater and Beckford though. Not seen anything in DD to suggest he should be starting regularly ahead of King, although King will need to up his game to 2010/11 levels if he wants to keep his place. Never seen Vardy, James or Knockaert play (like, I suspect, the overwhelming majority of posters) so couldnt really put them in my first XI.

Sol thewall Bamba Posted 8 August 2012 Share Posted 8 August 2012 You'd drop Nugent? Interesting. I don't necessarily think He deserves to be dropped, but as people have allready mentioned Posh will come out attack us from the start, and I think Beckford's and Vady's pace would help us hit them on the break.

Babylon Posted 8 August 2012 Share Posted 8 August 2012 It's nice that we seem to have options all over the pitch now. Obviously CB is a problem, but it'll be sorted one way or another soon enough. I've seen people say all the CM's are the same, but I'm not sure that's true really. First off none of us have seen James enough to even say that. Plus can people really say the likes of Wellens, King and Danns are anything alike at all? For me their games are all different. I like the balance of the squad (we actually have more than one winger this year) and I'm looking forward to the start of the season! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have a point. I think Pearson WILL play both Nugent and Becks together. It didn't work last season. Despite everyone bleating on about their forming some partnership. I hope it does this season cos, at this present time, they gotta be our two best strikers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We all know what Posh are like though, they'll come at us and Nugent & Vardy could reap the benefits. Agreed. Exactly what I was thinking. I think everyone knows that Posh will attack, I mean it's why they score yet concede so many every season I also thought Vardy maybe able to hold the ball up slightly better than Beckford. Counter attack is key though, even if we are at home. Counter attacking at home is how Reading got out of the division anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope you right, If they both get into a good vein of form at the right time they are arguably the best strike force in the division. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of all the new signings, Vardy is actually one I'm most excited about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nod.E Posted 8 August 2012 Share Posted 8 August 2012 _______________++_Kasper ____RDL___Morgan____Whitbread____Konch __________________James ________Marshall___Knockaert___Danns _____________Nugent___Beckford Assuming all fit, I would probably start with that. Vardy to come on after 65 minutes either in place of a midfielder to go left wing, or a midfielder for a striker, or a striker for a striker, depending on the game. As for Futacs, he may well prove worthy of a starting place but I'd bring him on and see how he fared for a few games before starting him. The reason I'd faze in the strikers and just start the midfielders is simply because I'd be willing to take a gamble on the midfield as it was terrible last season.
