AVFC-Prideofbrum Posted November 21, 2009 Share Posted November 21, 2009 I'll start it off then. Guzan (Give him a go, Friedel is hardly playing brilliantly) Young Collins Dunne Warnock Milner Reo-Coker Delph Young Carew Agbonlahor. (Downing needs to be introduced slowly) I reckon 1-2 loss personally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodders Posted November 21, 2009 Share Posted November 21, 2009 same performance = much worse result against keane, defoe etc. overhaul of our ability to not be shite needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qwpzxjor1 Posted November 21, 2009 Share Posted November 21, 2009 I hope Reo Coker starts for Petrov. But he won't. It'll be same team (maybe Collins in for Cuellar..).. and I think Spurs will win. I'd be tempted with Delph in for Sidwell.. get a bit of energy in there.. With the team that started today, Spurs have more energy, creativity and passing ability than us..

sir_gary_cahill Posted November 21, 2009 Share Posted November 21, 2009 but they've got nobody to put away their chances though have they mate?!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wedge Posted November 21, 2009 Share Posted November 21, 2009 Same team as Bolton please or a 4-5-1 with Gabby coming back into midfield, maybe give Friedel a rest and stick penalty king Guzan in for a change. I still have a bad gut feeling about this though... Today's performance was not convincing enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redrum Posted November 21, 2009 Share Posted November 21, 2009 Over 50 irish of the irish villa fan club coming over for this. The team i'd love to see is (no chance of this though): -----------------------Guzan--------------------------- Young-------Collins----------Dunne-------Warnock ----------------------Reo-Coker----------------------- ----------------Milner---------Downing---------------- Albrighton----------------------------------------Young ----------------------Agbonlahor------------------------ Subs: Friedel, Cueller, Petrov, Carew, Beye, Delph, Delfouneso Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanky Posted November 21, 2009 Share Posted November 21, 2009 I'll start it off then. Guzan (Give him a go, Friedel is hardly playing brilliantly) Young Collins Dunne Warnock Milner Reo-Coker Delph Young Carew Agbonlahor. (Downing needs to be introduced slowly) I reckon 1-2 loss personally. I don't get your logic. You bemoan Petrov in a 442 with the stats but then Delph has lost 2 in 2 as well in there. Friedel Young Collins Dunne Warnock Milner Petrov Reo-Coker Delph Young Agbonlahor Though perhaps 4-4-2 might be the way to go at home in which case Carew in for Delph.

sir_gary_cahill Posted November 21, 2009 Share Posted November 21, 2009 who did delph play with in the 2? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanky Posted November 21, 2009 Share Posted November 21, 2009 who did delph play with in the 2? It's going round in circles though a bit isn't it? I could blame Delph, you could blame Petrov, and we could both argue that neither has played with NRC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sir_gary_cahill Posted November 21, 2009 Share Posted November 21, 2009 blame a 19 year kid on his prem debut or a 30 year old seasoned pro and our poty? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanky Posted November 21, 2009 Share Posted November 21, 2009 blame a 19 year kid on his prem debut or a 30 year old seasoned pro and our poty? That doesn't make sense. If you're good enough, you're old enough and big enough to take criticism. I actually want to see Delph in a three. At the moment he isn't wonderful positionally (off the ball) to play in a two but hopefully that is something he will learn. On the ball he looks very good and doesn't look like he will hide in a game which is why I'd like to see him with Petrov and Reo-Coker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Downing needs to be introduced slowly) I reckon 1-2 loss personally. I don't get your logic. You bemoan Petrov in a 442 with the stats but then Delph has lost 2 in 2 as well in there. Because I don't believe Petrov can play in a 4-4-2, also Petrov is not an offensive midfielder, Delph likes to get forward and also has the energy to get back. So when I pick the midfield, to me it's out of Reo-Coker or Petrov and Delph or Sidwell and I'd give Reo-Coker the job of holding the midfielder, while Delph is given more of a license to create for us going forward.

Chindie Posted November 21, 2009 VT Supporter Share Posted November 21, 2009 -----------------Friedel--------------- -----------Cuellar---Dunne---------- Young-----------------------Warnock -----------Sidwell------Petrov------- Milner--------------------------Young ------------Gabby-----Carew-------- Same as usual. 2-2 draw. I'd consider dropping Carew and shifting in another mid maybe, but Carew's always got that potential of a goal in him and a threat, so best to stick to the 442.

Hanky Posted November 21, 2009 Share Posted November 21, 2009 Because I don't believe Petrov can play in a 4-4-2 You've not said that too much. :winkold: See my previous post about Delph, would prefer him in a three in which Petrov works best as well.

AVFC-Prideofbrum Posted November 21, 2009 Share Posted November 21, 2009 Yeah true, perhaps then go Petrov and Reo-Coker and see what happens but then Reo-Coker and Delph in the League Cup would be a perfect chance to check them out as a partnership. I'd be pleased to see either formation really, just with the right players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vojskovoda Posted November 21, 2009 Share Posted November 21, 2009 We need to show why Bottomham Lolspurs are overrated, overhyped and show they're not proper contenders for 4th spot... apart from Small Heath, there is no other team I want to beat this much. We've got home advantage and we've got a very good home record already compared to last season... we need to take advantage of this and we can't afford to completely dominate the game and come out with nothing which we did last season when we plays these Cockney spivs. And please O'Neill, DROP Sidwell!

Brumstopdogs Posted November 21, 2009 Share Posted November 21, 2009 There is no more annoying set of fans than Spurs in my view! We just cannot lose but a win would just be superb! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phumfeinz Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 ---------------Friedel---------------- Young--Cuellar--Dunne--Warnock Milner---Petrov--Sidwell---Young -----Agbonlahor--Carew----- That's my guess. Anyone know when Collins is back? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vindiesel Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 ---------------Friedel---------------- Young--Cuellar--Dunne--Warnock Milner---Petrov--Sidwell---Young -----Agbonlahor--Carew----- That's my guess. Anyone know when Collins is back? Suprised if Collins is back. As he sufferd a reaction friday before Burnley game. Oneil cannot afford to take chances with him in case it turns into a gerrad/torres type injury were he plays less than 100% and is then out for long spells. With his injury it looks like k.clarke & Davis when fit will be needed in the new year for cover. 8) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
