Mark Albrighton Posted January 4, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted January 4, 2016 Likes for both Richard and DDID as they're probably the closest (although obviously slightly differing) first teams that I would consider our best starting eleven. There's a case for either in my opinion. As pointed out, neither version will be enough to get us out of this, but blimey, they both should have accrued more than 8 points by this stage.

useless Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 We've got various XIs that can keep us in the division the players just have to get in the right mindset. We're only eleven points adrift, a couple of wins here and then another couple and the gaps closed. Survival is still possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maqroll Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 I'll answer this question in a few weeks. Hopefully by then we have a few more options to choose from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AshVilla Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 No team can save our season I compare the task of any team saving our season to trying to re lift the titanic from the Atlantic seabed using nothing but a pair of chopsticks we are done 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New_Jersey_Villa Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 About the only thing to hope for now is that 3 teams did something shifty and get docked 30 points each. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dudevillaisnice Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 Too late to be saved. The league should really offer clubs the chance to forfeit every game from here on in if relegation looks a certainty so we don't have to watch this rubbish. Save the embarrassment.

Stevo985 Posted January 5, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted January 5, 2016 The side in the OP would be comfortably worse than the sides we're putting out at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poise Posted January 5, 2016 Author Share Posted January 5, 2016 Okay everyone has an opinion. But people moaning about my team saying it is terrible and then putting theirs with Ayew back out wide is making me laugh. Our only saving grace at the moment is how Garde has started playing Ayew in his preferred position and how Ayew has repaid that by putting in some top performances. If we sign Remy then it has to be Ayew and Remy up top. Could save our season. But I don't think we're going to sign Remy. Therefore my squad was just all about playing to our strengths and changing the system to a counter-attacking system. At the moment we're playing a style of football that just seems ridiculously hard to play and we are just playing into opponent's hands. Counter attacking football with a front 3 of Adama, Ayew and Gabby could potentially striker fear into defenders given a couple of games. Obviously if it didn't work we'd change it. All I was saying is that it is worth a go at playing at this style. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phumfeinz Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 Counter-attack all you want, that back line is conceding at least 2 goals a game. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
