Your teams vs Asteras Tripolis and Stoke

[Nocando]

Pretty early to be thinking about this, but I think there are lots of interesting decisions / dilemmas in terms of team selection. So what would you like to see?

That's all I have for now.

I'd personally like to see a similar sort of team with only a few changes. I just feel all this chopping and changing is hindering our development.

Did Lampard get rested in the CL? Did he fuck.

Thursday

--------------------------Vorm---------------------------------
Naughton---------Fazio-------Vertonghen-------Davies
---------------------------Stombouli-------------------------
----------------Dembele-----Eriksen-------------------------
Townsend------------------------------------Lamela
--------------------------Soldado---------------------------------

Stoke

----------------------------Lloris--------------------------------
Naughton-------Fazio--------Vertonghen--------Davies
----------------Stombouli------Mason-----------------------
---------------------------Eriksen-------------------------------
Lamela--------------------------------------------------Chadli
-----------------------------Kane--------------------------------

The Stoke team would be dependant on midweek performances but first things first, Kaboul needs to be dropped asap and Fazio and Vertonghen need to develop their partnership.

Davies gets the Europa game and for me its a toss up between him and Rose. I know that Rose has played well this season but I feel our back four could do will the stability that Davies provides. Its a tough one though.

Capoue has been garbage this season and Stombouli deserves a chance in the PL. Provided he plays well Thursday, give him 60 mins then get him off for Stoke.

Eriksen gets a game to save his arse for Stoke. If he plays shit its Kane and Soldado for Stoke.

Kane has to start ahead of Soldado or Ade for Stoke.

V Stoke

​

Keep the same defence until someone earns their way in. Give Stambouli a league chance as Capoue offers as much protection and an out of date condom. Give Townsend a go in the league as he's at the very least tries to give opposition defenders a hard time. Restore Lamela for the league as he actually looks like making goals. Start Kane as, however they go in, he's actually scoring goals.

You what? Do they not work then?

I've had enough of hoping quality will prevail. We need grave change, and are desperate for heart. Heart all day and twice on Sunday for me over "talent" at this point. This is exactly how I'd do things this week:

Asteras Tripoli
Vorm
KWP - Fazio - Chiriches - Davies
Dembele - Capoue
Lamela - Eriksen - Lennon
Soldado

W/ Townsend sub at half for Lamela.

Stoke City
Lloris
Naughton - Dier - Vertonghen - Rose
Mason - Stambouli
Townsend - Lamela - Chadli
Kane

W/ Kane as false #9, and Ade available both matches.

 

[VegasII]

Save the best for the league game and send the scrubs out to Asteras.
Make Capoue and Adebayor play every minute out in Greece.
Stambouli, Kane and Fazio in for the Stoke match.

 

[thinktank]

Tripolis:

Vorm

Dier Faz Verts Rose

Capoue Mason

Soldado Eriksen Kane

Chadli​

Orcs:

Lloris

Naughton Faz Verts Davies

Mason Stambo

Soldado Lamela Kane

Chadli
​

[edit]forgot about crouch - faz in.

 

[Gbspurs]

Let's send the wasters out there as punishment. Kaboul, Capoue, Ade for starters.

 

[Mr Pink]

Well, its funny because I'd play Capoe, Kaboul, Eriksen and Ade all against the Greeks now. A few weeks ago i'd have been resting at least three of them.

Tripolis:

Vorm

Naughton
Kaboul
Vertonghen
Davies

Capoue
Dembele

Townsend
Eriksen
Lennon

Adebayor


Stoke:

Lloris

Naughton
Fazio
Vertonghen
Rose

Stambouli
Mason

Lamela
Kane
Chadli

Soldado


Fazio and Crouch - a battle that could reach new heights!

Put Dembele in the 2nd team because I think he might be a better defensive presence than Capoue at the moment. Maybe Stambouli instead if he plays well midweek. The 2nd team should be picked somewhat based on EL performances.

 

[am_yisrael_chai]

Stoke

Lloris
Naughton--Dier--Verts--Davies
Stambouli--Mason
Townsend--Kane--Chadli
Soldado

Asteras

Vorm
Kaboul--Fazio--Chiriches--Rose
Capoue--Dembele
Lamela--Ericksen--Lennon
Adebayor

 

[talkshowhost86]

If Adebayor and Kaboul start vs Stoke it sends out a very poor message that poor performances will continue to be tolerated.

You can probably add Eriksen and Capoue to that as well.

Against Stoke I'd go:

Lloris
Naughton Fazio Verts Rose
Stambouli Mason
Chadli Kane Lamela
Soldado

 

[spurs9]

v Asteras

Vorm
Naughton Kaboul Dier Davies
Capoue Dembele
Lamela Eriksen Townsend
Kane​

v Stoke

Lloris
Naughton Fazio Verts Rose
Mason Stambouli
Lamela Kane Chadli
Soldado​

I don't usually like seeing players play on both a Thursday and Sunday, but it is important to win both games and we have an Int break after Stoke. Kane and Lamela have been our most productive players in the EL this season and Kane deserves to start the league too.
