I would stick with that team for most of our games. Maybe bring in Holtby/Chadli at times for Eriksen , Paulinho for one CM and Rose for Chiri. But this is the group I would play week in week out

Subs: Friedel, Dawson, Paulinho, Holtby, Lennon, Sigurdsson, Kane/ Defoe/ Ade

What is this shit?

Have you not seen the chronic levels of bad choices he make, the dead ends he runs into and the complete lack of chances he makes for others?

I'm inclined to drop Townsend. Yes, he's dangerous but he's so bloody predictable and should be doing a winger's job of trying to creating chances instead of trying to be Bale Mk II. Also, I'd still rather Verts on the left with Chiriches in the centre, they've both looked good next to each other like this.

We'll be away from home so will need to wrestle control of the ball, so I'd put 2 holding midfielders. If Kaboul and Capoue are fit enough then they should play, no excuses. They'll have had a rest too.

Lloris
Walker Kaboul Chiriches Vertonghen
Sandro Capoue
Lamela Holtby Eriksen
Soldado
Edit: If Rose is fit then move Chiriches on the bench and Vertonghen back into the centre.

Fuck 4-2-3-1, it is a god fucking awful formation.

4-3-3, hopefully Rose will be fit and Chadli too.


Chadli ---------- Soldado ---------- Lamela

Eriksen ---------- Capoue
Sandro

Rose ----- Verts ----- Vlad ----- Walker

Lloris
Subs: Freidel, Kaboul, Naughton, Paulinho, Holtby, Townsend, Kane.

Then we have a chance.

We won't win anything with Soldado trying to do the job of a striker and a defensive mid, TGL.

Agree with this and wouldn't have a problem to bench him a few games. But other alternatives couldn't show anything promising either so far honestly (bar Lamela)

Chadli look good and promising when he started, then he go injured. Hopefully he and Rose will be back for the next game.

We could play 6-6-6 and still not score. Wake me up when we are worth watching again. I was at the Sheriff game and we could easily have lost that if they had a 2nd division standard or better striker. If the spammers can put three past us every team has realised we are nothing to worry about

I agree. Like the look of Chadli. But I think he could need a bit time with his injury and with the new league.

--Lamela-----Eriksen------Chadli--

Should be the front three with Townsend and Holtby storming on from the bench.

This team, the front three interchanging, will cause any defense problems and create chances, and score.
Capoue and sandro would break up play and give the ball to the front 3 and allow verts and chir to move the ball up field knowing they had solid cover behind them.
This should be our line up in tough games away, at home i would swap out one of the DM for paul.
I got called clueless for posting this team. this is by far and away our most intelligent and best line up.
Well done mate for having some brains and balls
