MackHaakon Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 We really should beat Cardiff at home. But in fact, due to our general crapness they may actually dominate possesion, create more chances and win the game. And all hell will break loose on villatalk. On the other hand, imagine if this is the day Tonev manages to hit the target and scores two screamers, Helenius and Benteke tiki-takas their way through Cardiff's defence, and Delph produces a surging run with an actual end-product. Above all else I would like us to play some good confident we're-at-home football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OutByEaster? Posted November 9, 2013 Moderator Share Posted November 9, 2013 Looking forward to this - it won't half be a relief if we can finally score again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mart-L7 Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 I'm feeling good about today with a few players down maybe somebody will come in a take their chance with both hands. Failing that if we do lose the bloke sitting behind me in L7 rants like nobody else he's that great he makes losing worth while 3-0 Benteke 2 and Tonev 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villalad21 Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 I can see many of you are pointing out a 4-4-2 formation. This is not the way to go as we will get dominated in the midtfield. It's not like we are in the 90's anymore, we're in a possession based era and we will have to adjust to it. I think with our current squad, the 4-2-3-1 formation is the best suitable, i'd go for something like -------------------Guzan------------------- Bacuna--------Vlaar-----Baker------Luna ---------------Sylla-------Delph--------------- Weimann--------Tonev-------------Gabby ---------------------Benteke-------------------- Well clearly youve paid no attention to this thread or the pre match team news, 3 of your chosen XI are injured. That doesn't mean we have to play a shitty formation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
