hanxamillion Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 Assuming all players are available my first 11 would be as follows - 1 Guzan 2 Luna 4 Baker 5 Vlaar © 3 Lowton 6 Sylla 7 Westwood 8 Bacuna 10 Weimann 11 Agbonlahor 9 Benteke With Bennett, Okora, Clark and Herd as defensive back up Delph,Tonev, El Ahmadi , Gardner, and Johnson midfield cover and N'zogbia, Heleinas, Bowrey and Carruthers forward options Depending on the form / rotation policy and tactics relating to the opposition this seems to me the best formation 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pembers Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 Guzan Lowton Vlaar Okore Luna Sylla Westwood Bacuna Weimann Agbonlahor Benteke Either that or replace Bacuna with Helenius and have him pushed further up the pitch. Bacuna is apparently a box to box midfielder so I would choose him to be the link between attack and defence with Sylla and Westwood sitting back more. Depending on how he does in pre-season maybe even have Delph rather than Bacuna. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P3te Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 I wouldn't be surprised to see Bennett starting the first few games tbh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abdulaziz1 Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 I don't think Lambert would gamble and start with Tonev in the first games especially against Arsenal .. Unless he does something really good against Malaga .. Could come from the bench though .. instead of Weimann .. Bacuna or Delph ? Not so sure .. Especially when we see our fixtures ! Baker or Okore ?! Not sure who'll be fit at the time .. Knowing Lambert .. I don't think he'll start new signing and let them have their debuts in a hard fixtures !

hanxamillion Posted July 21, 2013 Author Share Posted July 21, 2013 (edited) Helenius instead of weimann for me I see Helenius as more target man and Weimanns work rate gets him in my starting 11 every time. - Tonev or Helenius could come on as a sub depending on how it all works out Edited July 21, 2013 by hanxamillion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samjp26 Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 (edited) Guzan Lowton Okore Vlaar Luna Sylla Westwood Bacuna Weimann Benteke Gabby -- Bacuna pushing and roaming forward trying to connect play, Okore also will able to come forward a bit to play passes. Think Luna will start over Bennett too. Edited July 21, 2013 by samjp26 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hanxamillion Posted July 21, 2013 Author Share Posted July 21, 2013 I could see Okora coming in for either Vlaar or Baker depending on form / clean sheets etc. But would wean him in he's only 20 I believe Baker has done enough last year to get the nod - initially anyway.

Tomaszk Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 Guzan Lowton Vlaar Okore Luna Sylla Delph Westwood Weimann Benteke Agbonlahor It'll either be this or Baker in for Okore, haven't quite decided yet. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KHV Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 The team will be exactly the same as last season apart from Okore starting at CB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LondonLax Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 The team will be exactly the same as last season apart from Okore starting at CB I think the left back squad is still up for grabs. Possibly one of the wide forward positions as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimcohen Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 After tonights game v Crewe I would say: GK: Guzan RB: Lowton CB: Okure CB: Vlaar LB: Luna AM: Bacuna CM: Westwood CM: El Ahmadi RW: Wiemann CF: Benteke LW: Agbonlahor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wedge Posted July 27, 2013 Share Posted July 27, 2013 If the game was tomorrow: GK Guzan RB Lowton CB Vlaar CB Okore LB Luna CM Westwood CM Delph CM Sylla RW Weimann CF Benteke LW Agbonlahor Hopefully we'll have one or two new faces to add into the equation by the time August 17th rolls around!

hanxamillion Posted August 2, 2013 Author Share Posted August 2, 2013 Not sure why this post has been moved to the arsenal fixture. The intention was for a debate / post about our best Starting eleven for the forthcoming SEASON commencing on 17th August. There's certainly not much interaction on it ???

limpid Posted August 2, 2013 Administrator Share Posted August 2, 2013 Not sure why this post has been moved to the arsenal fixture. The intention was for a debate / post about our best Starting eleven for the forthcoming SEASON commencing on 17th August. There's certainly not much interaction on it ??? We don't yet have a psychic mods. The thread was fairly unambiguously titled and so was moved. A link to it is still present in the main forum. It was moved on the 21st August, how much interaction did you expect if you haven't checked in all that time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
