markjazzbassist Posted March 18, 2017 Report Share Posted March 18, 2017 We have the international break and we're flying high. I hope the lads keep up the momentum because I actually feel optimistic this year for the derby. Let's hope schneiderlin is fit by then as well.

Paddock Posted March 18, 2017 Report Share Posted March 18, 2017 Another fucking defeat, Schneiderlin out for the derby. We missed him when he went off today. I swear they have a hex on us. Wont be watching. I hate the twats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pete0 Posted March 18, 2017 Report Share Posted March 18, 2017 With Koeman switching to 5 at the back at 1 nil, I'm guessing it was for a bit of practise in preparation for the Liverpool game. Robles Coleman Jags Williams Mori Baines Davies Schneiderlin Barkley Lukaku Mirallas Hoping Koeman learnt his lesson from The Spurs game and starts at least three attackers.

Aidan Posted March 19, 2017 Report Share Posted March 19, 2017 Don't think I can watch this one either. No matter what form we are in or how well we are doing we ALWAYS fall to pieces against the shite. Can see Jimmy Mac having a good game because he's wanting to prove his worth and has a good bite in him for games like this. Probably going to get hammered then drop off a little bit for the rest of the season. This is where our run comes to an end and we settle for 7th.

Shy_Talk Posted March 19, 2017 Report Share Posted March 19, 2017 It can't be Barry. We need to be all over these for the full 90 minutes. Barry was perfect against West Brom as they sat deep and didn't really counter with pace but we saw him against Hull and everything slowed down for us when we lost Schneiderlin. Hopefully Schneiderlin has suffered a knock and the international break will give him time to recover. Agreed, we need legs to go toe-to-toe with them, Barry is a late introduction to pick up a yellow or better, it's time for the battle and we've the villains for the fight. Mirallas has to play as he loves these types of games, they bring his true snidery to the surface and thats just wonderful. Snap them into the stands at every half chance, maximum malice.

Guest rusty747 Posted March 19, 2017 Report Share Posted March 19, 2017 (edited) We have 9 league games left, 3 of them are v teams currently above us and a 4th is v Man U. I think we can, and have to, win the 5 'other' games and take a minimum of 6 points from Liverpool (a), Man U (a), Chelsea (h) and Arsenal (a). Arsenal away is the last game of the season and may well be Wenger's last game as manager for them. I think we can take 4 points from the games v Liverpool and Man U, a point at home v Chelsea and the wildcard is the last game of the season v Arsenal. That leaves us on 70-71 points which is 4th/5th territory, guarantees Europe, possibly Champions League and will hopefully persuade Rom to put pen to paper.

Shy_Talk Posted March 19, 2017 Report Share Posted March 19, 2017 Who is on international duty out of our squad that is likely to play and chance injury? I realise ROI would play McCarthy if he was on a drip in a hospital bed if they had the chance, but besides that who else is in the firing line?

Keith B Posted March 19, 2017 Report Share Posted March 19, 2017 I'd go with the same lineup as vs. Hull unless Morgan can't go. If that's the case, McCarthy slides into the lineup. Mirrallas is first off the bench if we need a goal. If not, Funes Mori and we go three at the back to protect the lead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlbanyNYToffee Posted March 20, 2017 Report Share Posted March 20, 2017 October 17 2010. Play the goals in the dressing room with Dunc standing in the middle of the room. No coach need say a word.

London Blue Posted March 20, 2017 Report Share Posted March 20, 2017 If we are missing Morgan then I would go 5 at the back: Rubles, Holgate, Jags, Williams, Coleman, Baines, Gaye, Barkley, Davies, Lukaku. We cant play Barry he is just to slow for a high energy pressing team. We can always bring on Miralla, Lookman etc if we need to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aidan Posted March 24, 2017 Report Share Posted March 24, 2017 Robles Coleman Williams Jags Baines Gana Schneiderlin Davies DCL Lukaku Lookman Go all out and try to out score the fuckers. They won't like that and will be shaken. If we let them play, surly, we will get battered. Got a feeling RK will want to set up with 5 at the back though. As long as he doesn't play 12 defensive midfielders like he did against spurs id be content. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aidan Posted March 24, 2017 Report Share Posted March 24, 2017 (edited) No Ross?Good point! Completely forgot how much depth we have in midfield. I suppose id have to drop DCL there and put Ross where he's been starting recently. I think I prefer Mola out of him and DCL. If he gets a lot of space he would be dangerous running into it. Then again Mirallas is showing to pick up in form too. Who knows. Exciting times. But it's not like we will win it anyway haha Edited March 24, 2017 by AidanLewis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cornish Steve Posted March 24, 2017 Report Share Posted March 24, 2017 McCarthy should definitely play. His grit will make a real difference. I'd also play Lookman over DC-L. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest rusty747 Posted March 24, 2017 Report Share Posted March 24, 2017 And now Seamus is going to be out of action for a long time I fear. So, for the derby, Robles Holgate. Jags. Williams Davies Gueye Schneiderlin. Baines Barkley. Rom. DCL/Mirallas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c1982 Posted March 24, 2017 Report Share Posted March 24, 2017 Schneiderlin is unlikely to be fit either! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bailey Posted March 25, 2017 Report Share Posted March 25, 2017 With Seamus' injury I dont think we will play with a back 5 now. I dont think Jags, Williams and Mori will work as a three and Holgate isnt a wing back either. If McCarthy is fit maybe he could play as the wingback and Holgate as RCB but I dont like the sound of it. I suspect we will line up: Joel Holgate Jags Williams Baines Gueye Barry Davies Barkley Mirallas Lukaku Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
