AVFC-Prideofbrum Posted December 11, 2010 Share Posted December 11, 2010 Tough call for team selection, I think I'd go with quite a battling team. Friedel Lichaj Cuellar Collins Young Hogg Reo-Coker Albrighton Young Downing Heskey. Bench: Guzan, Dunne, Warnock, Bannan, Ireland, Gabby, Delfouneso.

Friedel Lichaj Cuellar Collins Young Hogg Reo-Coker Albrighton Young Downing Heskey. Bench: Guzan, Dunne, Warnock, Bannan, Ireland, Gabby, Delfouneso. That for me depending on Gabby's fitness. Toss up between Warnock and Luke Young for left back as well, both have been poor this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NulliSecundus Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 Yes he has. Warnock has forgotten how to tackle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AVFC-Prideofbrum Posted December 12, 2010 Author Share Posted December 12, 2010 I don't think so. I can't remember too many errors Luke Young has made this season, had a bad couple games but overall has been solid this season. Certainly compared to Dunne/Collins/Warnock this season. Also, a manager factor in Luke Young left back is that N'Zogbia usually on the right likes to cut inside which means he will cut inside onto Luke Young's stronger side which obviously he's better. Warnock just gets skinned way too easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brumstopdogs Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 I'd rather see Heskey and Gabby up front than Young and Heskey. Ashley Young does not score enough to be a striker but at least Gabby will normally get you 10+. Cuellar has to play again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chappy Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 I want Heskey to play again, need him against a bustling Wigan side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanky Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 I think Warnock is noticed a lot more (and perhaps has been slightly poorer) due to his awful passing. Think Luke Young positionally has been woeful this season, perhaps all round slightly better. The toss up for me was the fact Warnock is naturally left footed but Young has done well in the past there. Lichaj should keep his place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ponky Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 I want Heskey to play again, need him against a bustling Wigan side. Don't really have any figures to back this up but you'd have to say some combination of Heskey, Albrighton and Downing has been responsible for at least 70-75% of our goals/assists this season.

barry'sboots Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 Tough call for team selection, I think I'd go with quite a battling team. Friedel Lichaj Cuellar Collins Young Hogg Reo-Coker Albrighton Young Downing Heskey. Bench: Guzan, Dunne, Warnock, Bannan, Ireland, Gabby, Delfouneso. This would make sense although I might keep Warnock in the starting XI as Young is only just returning from a groin strain. I would also have Clark on the bench in front of SI in case NRC breaks down. I would also, but Ged won't, bring Downing inside and shove Ash out wide left.

Shillzz Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 Agree on the above team from POB. Would personally be reluctant to drop Bannan, but I think we need to start putting as much experience back into the team as possible. So on this basis, drop him back to the bench. Would keep Warnock, and would keep Young as captain. I have a horrible feeling Cuellar will drop back out, but I hope to be proved wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can see Dunne returning. -------------Friedel----------------- Lichaj--Cuellar--Collins--Warnock -----------Reo-Coker-------------- Albrighton----Bannan----Downing -------------Young----------------- ------------Heskey----------------- Or id play Gabby if fit with Heskey and Ash in Bannans place.

Larscapaldi Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 I'd rather see Bannan instead of Hogg, but other than that the above is the team that should be playing on saturday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AValon Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 This game always depends on which Wigan side actually turn up. One week they'll roll over and the next they're upsetting the odds and beating the likes of Chelsea off the pitch!! Whichever it is, I think we need our talisman to start.......go on Emile.

Shillzz Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 I'd rather see Bannan instead of Hogg, but other than that the above is the team that should be playing on saturday Bannan is possibly my favourite player, but I think he needs to drop out for this one. Albrighton, Young & Downing will provide enough going forward, and it's probably time to re-introduce to steel into our engine room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larscapaldi Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 well I'd play NRC and Hogg against sides with a stronger midfield, but for me Nige should be able to handle this one on his own And also I'd love to see us get a comfortable win as it's been ages ago, so we should attack!
