maqroll Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 Midfield is a concern, I would think. Gerrard, Lampard and Barry are all too slow and old to cut it at that level anymore. But who do you replace them with? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swerbs Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 4-2-3-1 Hart Walker Cahill Jagielka Baines Lampard Wilshere Oxlade-Chamberlain Rooney Townsend Sturridge Maybe swap Lampard/Gerrard/Carrick & Wilshere/Milner around I dunno.

Mantis Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 I wonder if Gabby gets in the team if Walcott isn't fit by then. You weren't being serious were you? It would be against rule 1 of Hodgson's list of prehistoric football management rules - never pick any Villa players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stewiek2 Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 Balll retention is going to be very important out there in the heat so having someone who can slow things down and calm will be important. I'd play fat Baz. He keeps the ball well, Gerrard likes playing along side him, he can sit in front of the back four and let the other midfielders get forward.

Stevo985 Posted February 4, 2014 VT Supporter Share Posted February 4, 2014 ----------------Hart Walker, Cahill, Terry, Baines --------Carrick, Wilshere ------------Gerrard Walcott--------------------Ox --------------Rooney Subs (the ones that get used regularly): Sturridge Lallana Rodriguez Wellbeck (wide attack where he's actually half decent) Townsend Jagielka Cole I know Terry is a controversial choice. But despite the fact he's a monumental arsehole, he's still a very good defender, and I think Cahill and Terry playing together at their club would benefit us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qwpzxjor1 Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 (edited) This is actually hard. It's eye opening how poor the quality of our squad is right now. I've always tried create a team of young players when times are bad, use the german model to write off a couple of tournaments to create a great squad for the future.. but right now the quality isn't really there. Lallana and Rodriguez deserve to go. But there will be players like Cleverley and Welbeck on that plane, who are just not good enough. My biggest concern is holding midfield. I think we could create a pretty good diamond formation with Rooney in behind Sturridge. Who could be the anchor though? We've already seen Gerrard can't do it. Maybe Phil Jones? Milner? Delph? ------------------ Hart --------------- Walker - Jagielka - Cahill - Baines -------[holding?--- [holding?] ------- Oxlade -------------------- Lallana ----------- Rooney---------------- ----------------- Sturridge---------- On the subject of Terry - he has retired from international football, but that was after falling out with Bernstein, who is no longer there. He may be convinced to come back, and I agree that his partnership with Cahill at the moment is fantastic, and worth looking into.
