Rob182 Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 I'm not a fan of these 5-3-2 formations that include 5 defenders AND a defensive midfielder. I'd much rather have a 5-3-2 where the 3 midfielders consist of 2 'all-round' CMs and an AMC. Eg: Delph & Westwood with Cole in front of them. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DamsonwoodVillan Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 As it stands I would go with... Guzan Okore Vlaar Senderos Bacuna Westwood Cole Delph Richardson Benteke Agbonlahor Weimann in until the Beast is back. I would rather have another good quality midfielder in there where Cole is at the moment though to be honest. I think that team will pick results up away from home, I still think it will struggle at home though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see were you're coming from but i feel a midfield 3 of Delph, Westwood & Cole would be overrun (against most teams) forcing the wingbacks to only concentrate on defending making it a flat back 5 and thus making us even less of a threat going forward Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay.P.A Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 James Nursey has said on Twitter Lambert is targeting an experienced central holding midfielder, hinted might be Ki? Hopefully it's Ki. He'd be an excellent signing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theboyangel Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 Wouldn't mind us trying to sign Marko Marin from Chelsea on loan for a season (with a view to buying if it works out and we get new owners!) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Villarocker Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 Think I'll give this a wide berth for a while after we sign the next one, lol Richard, do you have any info on who we might possibly be signing next? That's if there is actually a "next" signing this window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
picicata Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 Think I'll give this a wide berth for a while after we sign the next one, lol Is that a clue? Is it Holt? It's Grant Holt isn't it? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wazzap24 Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 According to the Guardian, Frazier Campbell has a 600k release clause. I'd go for him at that price Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCJonah Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 I heard someone say progress, listen all we want to do is stay up until a new owner comes in That's a good post. Its horrible and depressing but this is basically it. Its similar to the point I made in the Richardson thread. We won't be able to attract decent players because decent players don't want to join a club where the aim is to survive and get sold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wazzap24 Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 I wouldn't say 'crap' DK. I'm not saying he's great, but his record at Antwerp, Hull and Cardiff is ok. He didn't do well at blunderland, but he had a serious knee injury 20 in 31 for Antwerp 15 in 34 for Hull 13 in 48 for Cardiff An improvement on Bowery, Delfonz, Holte and scored more than Gabby and Weeman last season In a relegated team 600k and less of a gamble than that knob from Arsenal 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pembers Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 (edited) According to Gordon Burns who is some kind of BBC reporter we're interested in taking Young back from utd and willing to pay £7m. Don't know how credible that info is though. Edit: turns out he's just a former BBC presenter so probably not all that credible.

sne Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 (edited) Can't fathom why we would keep on signing attackers, you don't score more goals just because you pack the team full of attackers. Argentina have played with 3,4 or 5 (depending on how you place Di Maria) all through the WC, among them Messi and Aguero and they've scored just 8 goals in 6 games Granted Argentina are sadly in the finals now and you can't argue with results, but the calibre strikers we have and are linked with are some way short of the quality Argentina have. For the love of god focus on sorting out the midfield. Edited July 12, 2014 by sne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
