AVFC-Prideofbrum Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 get Reo-Coker on Fabregas. Back pocket him like he's done to Gerrard and Ronaldo! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_Dogg Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 get Reo-Coker on Fabregas. Back pocket him like he's done to Gerrard and Ronaldo! I would agree and I'm not normally one pushing for a NRC start but Fabregas is tearing teams apart this season. He has to be contained somehow.

carew_villa Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 NRC should definitely start but we all know that he won't! For me, I think we should play 4-5-1 Friedel Young-Cuellar-Dunne-Warnock Downing-NRC-Petrov-Young Milner Gabby I'd like that to be the team but we all know it's not going to happen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 1-1 draw. Dunney with a late equaliser, similar to Knight last season. Arsenal have a few midfielders out like Ramsey, Nasri, Song and Diaby who always scores against us so yep if we can nulify Fabregas which is easier said than done, we can win it.

Ponky Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 I think this is probably a good game to unleash Delph in a 5-man midfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Undesirable Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 I imagine they'll come out against us like a wounded animal after their result at Stoke today. I'd be surprised if Martin went with anythign other than the 4-4-2 with the possibility of Luke Young coming in for James Collins. I'd like to see us go 4-5-1 with Delph coming in for Heskey and providing cover for the back four and doing a job on Fabregas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaGoMarching Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 i suspect they're actually quietly pleased that they're out of the FA cup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theboyangel Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 Warnock a doubt so Young to LB and Cuellar to continue at RB... :shock: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barry'sboots Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 Warnock a doubt so Young to LB and Cuellar to continue at RB... :shock: Would rather see Carlos stay at CB and bring Beye in. Lets keep the "out of positions" to a minimum in my view. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roonst83 Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 We need to learn from when we played Arsenal the other week...our midfield got over ran at times (especially when Fabregas came on) so we should pack the midfield with 5 in there. As people have sugetsed id stick NRC (if fit) in there to ankle bite Fabregas. The teams thhat get the best results against Arsenal close them down straight away and give them no time on the ball. We must do this. At VP of late teams have done a pretty good job shutting us down, Stoke did it, Liverpool did it, even West Ham did it - I feel we may be getting too predictable at home - teams come and close Ashley Young and Milner down and stop them playing. Lets go 4-5-1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanky Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 I agree with the 4-5-1 shout and the team if NRC is fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
