    Nope. Been confirmed already that Clark and Baker are our CB for tomorrows game
  2. Rich_D
    True. He could have a field day. Clark we all know can compete against players in the same calibre of Davies. Baker, although in limited performances, defiantly puts his body on the line. This is the time where we need to have a sitter in midfield to protect the back 2, allowing Walker to do his magic going forward, and let Delph continue what he has been doing so far at LB. If we get an injury, Heskey will be most likely to fill in.

    Defensive problems will not help. Love us to win, as always, can see us getting a draw, which I think, given the circumstances, wouldn't be a bad result.

    The rumour broke before the game on Wednesday from what I was told

    ------------Friedel Walker Clark Baker Delph/Young Albrighton NRC Pires Downing -------------Young --------------Bent That is how I see it. If Young isn't available at LB, we have a very, very youthful, inexperienced back 4. (I'm not coming on here if we lose because I can already see the abuse that Houllier will get) Can't see him dropping Pires after Blackburn unless he gives Bannan another start. Option at CB are Collins is he is fit but no news on it, same with Cuellar. Heskey anyone?
  6. Rich_D
    Naivity comes with age and experience. Only way to get rid of that is by playing.
  7. Rich_D
    Glad he has committed longer. Hopefully get NRC and Young tied down now
  8. Rich_D
    Nope. I think we all know that. Houllier included. If Baker is fit, Delph needs to play along side NRC in the centre. They would work well together

    Bannan was the only real bright spark. Friedel, Dunne, Clark, Delph had very decent games. Didn't really put a foot wrong. Bradley and Gabby had decent games. Delfouneso hardly touched it. Heskey won nothing in the air. Petrov was missing and completely off the pace. Herd looked very inexperienced at times
  10. Rich_D
    Yes true. But teams around us have got better. However, Petrov was pants. Heskey didn't offer anything and Gabby is one dimensional.
  11. Rich_D
    then why is Bannan playing centre midfield and Delph shifted to full back. Best player tonight in a sea of mediocrity Delph has more experience at LB. More physical. Bannan is still a huge potential. I said earlier in the thread that I hoped his lack of height and size wouldn't effect his potential but that boy Silva is the same size....
  12. Rich_D
    +1 +1 more. All the players are capable. Lets face it, it wasn't too long along people were saying that Petrov should be starting all the games as he is our captain, Bannan needs games and same with Delfouneso.
  13. Rich_D
    So if we win you will still be pissed off that Ash and Ste aren't playing...Behave yourself!

    Good to see some players getting a rest in a way. Herd-Dunne-Clark-Delph It is experimental, but if Herd is solid in the tackle, hopefully he will perform like Cuellar did at home against City. Petrov-Bradley-Bannan I think it will be like this with Bradey being the sitter, Bannan being the Adam of the team and Petrov being the more attack minded one. Delfouneso-Heskey-Gabby Very attacking, with lots a pace and power. 3 up top will trouble City at the back so hopefully will look like that

    Dublin did a job there IIRC Imagine NRC Dunne Heskey Downing as the back four if shit hits the fan! haha

  17. Rich_D
    Downing at LB? Only joking. Dunne and Clark will play CB as they are our only choices. If we get an injury, it may be interesting having to have Heskey at the back. Push comes to shove and Walker can be LB with NRC at RB. Delph, imo, will start at LB as there is no other option, unless Herd steps in
  18. Rich_D
    The fact that Blues won at the weekend may spur some of the players on tonight and for the rest of the season. Love us to win and think we have a good chance. We will want revenge after the battering at Eastlands last time. Rather lose and then concentrate on the league as opposed to having another game in the way of a reply. Just my view though
  19. Rich_D
    I don't Care to expand??? :winkold: Makoun is the simple passer of the team. Rarely looks for the big passes. Delph is the archetypal box to box player. Can sit deep and spray the ball but also ends up around the box. Can fit in at LB too :winkold: Out of the 2 above, Bannan is more like Delph but a little lightweight. Both have great potential but I hope his size does not let him down.
  20. Rich_D
    Bent cuptied so you can rule him out Forgot it was the cup. Heskey up top then
  21. Rich_D
    Simple reason Gabby is not good to fill in as a left winger because he doesn't have the ability to beat a man with his footwork. Delph is good enough to fill in at left back, it really is that simple. No doubt Delph has the skill level. But does he have the positional awareness or the discipline, especially against a potentially top class striker force? No one can say he does or does not because he has not been in that position (not lb position, but position of facing class striker force) You've basically given a non-answer to your own question. :winkold:
  22. Rich_D
    It is good that for once we aren't slatting Houllier in his selection but instead guessing who will play in a certain position. At last!!! Friedel Walker Dunne Clark Young Downing NRC Delph Gabby Young Bent Have an inclining that Gabby will start, but not up top. He will be used as the workhorse on the left, again, with Young given then chance to proves his worth behind Bent.

    Luke Young is not match fit but is fit. It is whether you have a match fit, out of position Delph or a non match fit player who knows the position in Young. Will be interesting to see if the people that were calling for Houlliers head because he was playing the attackers out of position want Delph out of position
  25. Rich_D
    Clark (hopefully not) or Luke Young at LB for me please. Delph would have to have been on the training ground practicing/learning how to LB none stop since Saturday if he is to play there tomorrow.
