JonGoodwyn 1 Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 They have quite a few key players out, and its looking more and more like Fabregas and Nasri (although probably not before the weekend) are off, so we have a reasonably chance of getting something from it.

Monroe Transfer 0 Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 Not looking good for us tbh. According to news, if 3 games are cancelled, then they will cancel them allAre you sure about that? I'm pretty sure only a couple of matches were played one weekend at the height of winter last season - in fact I think one afternoon saw a single match take place.

I'm pretty sure only a couple of matches were played one weekend at the height of winter last season - in fact I think one afternoon saw a single match take place. Thats what I heard. Its to do with the police presence necessary for match day. They need to have police on the streets, stations and ground. And they are worried about taking them away from duties that could encourage more rioting. I also think its to do with away fans travelling around too. Could be bollocks, I hope so anyway. Have to wait for the announcement tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have to wait for the announcement tomorrow. Never thought of that. That could be the bit that fucks us up if they decide they cant police movement of fans out of and back into London. Bloody gutted if its postponed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mac-Toon 1 Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 I'm worried about it going ahead. All due to the away fans coming out of Laaaandan. A season starter away at the mackems isn't what I'd want. I MUST watch Newcastle - Arsenal at teatime on saturday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GafferTape 0 Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 Fabregas, Nasri, Wilshere all missing, who will they play as their midfield three? Rosicky, Ramsey & Song? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christmas Tree 4725 Posted August 11, 2011 Author Share Posted August 11, 2011 Ok, havent done one for a while so lets have a peep at a formation for Saturday. Krul Simpson --- Taylor --- Colochini --- Erik Tiote --- Cabaye Obertan --- Gosling --- Marveaux Ba Gives us a nice solid midfield hopefully capable of breaking quickly. Havent seen much of Ba pre season so it may be Best instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krul Simpson --- Taylor --- Colochini --- Erik Tiote --- Cabaye Obertan --- Gosling --- Marveaux Ba Gives us a nice solid midfield hopefully capable of breaking quickly. Havent seen much of Ba pre season so it may be Best instead. Coloccini! He's the captain now, you've got to at least be able to spell his name. I think Marveaux will start on the bench with Jonas down the left. Left back will obviously be interesting... Would be pretty quick to rush Obertan out there, I'd much rather see Barton down the right in an act of conciliation. Obertan and Marveaux will be good to inject later in the game off the bench. If Barton doesn't figure then either of the two new French wide-men could play with Jonas. Alternately Obertan could play behind a lone striker - likely to be Shola I'd say. If two up top Shola and Ba. Plenty of choices to be made in certain positions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything he talks about seems to be this fluid passing play. Jonas's mazy runs and lack of end product dont really fit into that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monroe Transfer 0 Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 Sounds like it was a relatively quiet night last night in terms of rioting, I think you guys can stop worrying about our game getting called off now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spare everyone the hassle of this tedious discussion relating to your reason(s) for not selecting Jonas. Selecting Gosling to play behind the striker says everything we need to know about the validity of your opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest alex Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 I think CT means Marmite, except that would suggest fans either love or hate him whereas most think he's a decent, hardworking player who doesn't have the end product to be top drawer. Other than that though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
