AndyM3000 Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 Im pretty sure without then you wouldn't be able to get a starting 11 on the pitch at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AVFC-Prideofbrum Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 Hmmm, such a difficult one. Guzan Lowton Vlaar Dunne Baker N'Zogbia Westwood Bannan Agbonlahor Benteke Bent That's a really aggressive line up so not sure how well it'd work but both central midfielders play deeper so should be covered. Only real other players i'd say knocking on the door would be Joe Bennett, Bret Holman and Ireland/Delph/KEA if Bannan (most likely) isn't performing well. I don't want players like Lichaj, Herd even near the line up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amo69 Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 I hate to say it but I'd actually like to see a team with Hutton and Warnock in it. Also Ngoz, Gabby and Bent. The youngsters are shitting it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Foxy1 Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 Guzan Lowton-Vlaar-Dunne-Clark Westwood-Bannan Agbonlahor-Weimann-N'Zogbia Benteke He played there today. He was absolutely awful. It's pretty hard to tell where anyone is playing at the moment. They don't appear to know either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fightoffyour Posted December 30, 2012 VT Supporter Share Posted December 30, 2012 (edited) Guzan Lowton Vlaar Baker Bennett Clark Albrighton Westwood Bannan Weimann Benteke Interesting that none of us are in agreement. This can be improved with a few decent signings like CB, DM. It has to be a proper 4 at the back and a DM, not a back 3/5.

I don't want players like Lichaj, Herd even near the line up. I quite agree with this, espacially the last sentence. Guzan Lowton - Vlaar - Dunne - Warnock Ireland - Westwood - Bannan - Nzogbia Bent- Benteke Dunne is question mark though, as you never know if he ever returns to his level, Baker/Clark his replacement Bannan should go off for Holman if it's a more power-play game. Subs: Given, Clark/Baker, Stevens, Holman, Albrighton, Weimann, Gabby (so every position can be covered) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theboyangel Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 Lowton and Bennett can't defend to save their lives . Bennett just can't play football at all! PFE!!! Lowton has aquitted himself well this season and as for Bennett, he's hardly featured and not properly gelled in with the team but he has shown signs of a decent player.

avfc1982am Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 My first eleven would be. Guzan Lowton Vlaar Baker Clark Gabby Ireland Holman NZog Bent Benteke It may be an attack minded line up but presently playing too deep is killing us especially with no real pace on the pitch to counter. I would use holman to screen the back four as I feel he is currently the only CM able to physically battle in the middle. I think Clark is our best option left back at the moment as bennett is to lightweight and gives the ball away in poor areas also clark has more strength and previous experience in this position and being a natural left footer still offers balance and isn't bad going forward. Lichaj as we know is no natural left back but good cover for lowton. As for playing gabby right mid and zog left, well I wouldn't want them to keep cutting on to their stronger feet in narrowing our play as this is already one of the reasons we are in the shit. Both would get good cover in Lowton and clark to be able to use their pace to get forward at every opportunity providing support for 2 forwards instead of one. We need to let the opposition worry about us not us worry about them. My view! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
