Rovers13 Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 Every ones 1st 11 is pretty similar. What would be your preferred line up if we sell benteke & lambert has the whole transfer fee available lets say 25m-30m to re invest Guzan Lowton. Vlaar Clark/okore. New lb Westwood. Delph New winger. Número 10. Gabby/Weimann/helenius/ tonev/albrighton Kozak Though the wingers could swap, the new winger could play on the left with one of the other 5 on the right.

jasoncb Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 (edited) --------------------Guzan----------------------- New Player --- Vlaar --- Okore --- Luna --New Player--- Delph --- New Player-- --New Player-----------------New Player-- ----------------- New Player------------------ I would keep gabby, Lowton, Clark, Kozak, as cover and sell Baker, Weimann, Tonev, Westwood, KEA, and Albrighton. Maybe keep Sylla if he improves. Looks harsh but I am aiming for improving the quality dramatically with the money from Benteke. Edit: Just saw you want names of the new players, will have to sleep on it ! Edited December 18, 2013 by jasoncb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want names of your preferred new players I trust Lambert more than I trust myself at finding new players. But if you insist Guzan Lowton Vlaar Clark Bastian Oczipka Westwood/Bacuna Delph Weimann/tonev Kiyotake Jefferson Montero Kozak/Gabby I would go with Westwood, Weimann and Kozak in games against weaker sides and Bacuna, Tonev and Gabby against stronger sides. Weimann and Westwood are more technical and Kozaks aerial ability in the box could be critical for breaking them down but Gabby's pace is devastating on the counter and Westwood tends to disappear against big sides because he can't get on the ball enough. I also think that over time Tonev could be really good, especially with strict instructions on when to shoot, so I would use him for his pace and back tracking (like he did against Norwich) the stronger sides. While this is fun to do, however, I concede that I know next to nothing about coming up with a formation for a football team and Paul Lambert will be 1000x better at figuring this out when he gets funds Edited December 18, 2013 by Rovers13 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nycVILLA Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 In the future, I believe we will see three men at the back, when we are back at full strength, Guzan Vlaar, Okore, Clark Lowton Delph, Westwood Moon New Player (Wide/AM Role) Teckers, Gabby Ideally we would add Lescott, Barry and De Bruyn, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam_ Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 If we don't sign anyone, worth a shot: Guzan Clarke, Vlaar, Donacien Bacuna, Delph, Westwood, Carruthers Grealish Benkteke, Gabby What I'd ideally like: Guzan Clarke, Lescott (Loan), Vlaar Bacuna, Delph, Westwood, De Bruyne (Loan) Sigurdsson (Loan) Benkteke, Gabby All loans so don't have to rush signing anyone and permenant players can be sorted in summer.Okore to replace Lescott end of season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dakid007 Posted December 30, 2013 Author Share Posted December 30, 2013 (edited) If we had a proper dm we would see better performances from our defenders for this reason we should play kea & Sylla to protect back for Edited December 30, 2013 by dakid007 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kwan Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 Our problems haven't really been up the middle. We actually do well tackling and blocking there. We keep getting skinned out wide Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dakid007 Posted December 31, 2013 Author Share Posted December 31, 2013 If we're goin to play with wingers they need to remember to cover our full backs. When we have players covering the full back no one puts a tackle in until the player is in our box Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avflife Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 (edited) Away from home: 4-3-3, Guzan, Bacuna, Vlaar, Okore, Clark, number 10, (Defour), Delph, Gabby, (Zaha) and Benteke. Home, 4-2-3-1, Guzan, Bacuna, Vlaar, Okore, Clark, (Defour), Delph, Gabby, number 10 and Benteke or 4-3-1-2, Guzan, Bacuna, Vlaar, Okore, Clark, (Defour) Delph, Westwood, number 10, Gabby and Benteke. Players in brackets are ideal possible signings in this window. Edited January 4, 2014 by Avflife Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillanousOne Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 (edited) would love to know who Lambert sees as his first 11 now we have pretty much our whole team close to being available If would seem most likely v Everton he will play: Gabby - Benteke - Weimann Cleverly - Westwood - Delph Cissokho - Vlaar - Baker - Hutton Guzan That side certainly could be pretty effective with an attacking focal point and a more solid experienced midfield and defence but if we fail to take our chances on the break we will struggle again to open up defences as their is little width or creativity in that side. but I have no idea how we could utilise Zog, Cole and Grealish in the team. Other than maybe sacrificing Weimann for one of them I know 442 is old hat but i'd still love us to play with the below in the FA Cup just to see if that would work as I think both Hutton and Cissokho are strong enough defenders to hold their runs forward and squeeze in. Gabby - Benteke Grealish - Delph - Cleverly - Zog Cissokho - Vlaar - Baker - Hutton Guzan Edited October 14, 2014 by VillanousOne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gabby - Benteke Grealish - Delph - Cleverly - Zog Cissokho - Vlaar - Baker - Hutton Guzan Love the idea of the 4-4-2 team, but hate the idea of Westwood being out of the team. I do see the issue of Delph/Cleverly/Westwood and only being able to choose two. But that won't be a problem for a while after the Delph news.
