What would be your starting 11 with only the current squad available?

 

For me:

 

Howard

 

Coleman Stones Distin Baines

 

McCarthy Gibson

 

Mirallas Barkley Pienaar

 

Naismith

Posted

Howard

 

Coleman Jags Distin Baines

 

Mccarthy Barry

 

Mirrales Barkley McGeady

 

Kone

 

Also In on rotation with Europe etc....stones, naismith, Gibson, pienaar, osman.

This one for me too. Pienaar might be a bench player this year and I would love to see Mcgeady get a proper run of games.

Sorry...A bit ahead of myself there with Barry! Doh!

 

It's expected to be announced soon, within next couple of days!

 

I've cheated then have I?! Ha!

 

Today, as it is right now, right this minute, will have to be Gibson.

Barkley

Naismith

Hopefully we can get Barry tied down to a contract sooner rather than later and can get a striker in before the end of the window. I'd have Stones in defence too as Jagielka has been piss poor in the World Cup, if Stones can get some experience under his belt then we have a young player ready for the future.

-------------Howard

 

Coleman--Stones---Jags--Baines

 

--------Mccarthy---Gibson

 

-McGeady----Barkley----Oviedo

 

-------------Mirallas

 

Not what I'd start with but just throwing it out there as a possibility with being slightly light upfront

depends on the game plan, there are 2 line ups that I see

 

Howard

Coleman Stones Distin Oviedo

McCarthy Baines

Mirallas Barkley Pienaar

Naismith

Controversial maybe, but having Oviedo, Baines and Pienaar working together kinda makes me excited. I dont want Jags to walk back in, Stones and Distin looked good together. This is why I was touting a 352:

 

Howard

Stones Jags Distin

Coleman Baines

McCarthy

Barkley Mirallas Pienaar

Naismith

Mirallas to play as 2nd striker where Barkley and Pienaar provide the overlap rather than playing out wide.

I like the look of your 5-3-2 but I'd swap Distin & Jagielka around. He works best when he's in the middle as a unit and I think we would pay the price when Jagielka has an off day in the centre of our defence.

In that case I'd swap Stones and Jags, keep the right footed player (Jags) away from the left hand side
