starting line-up&formation for the new season

[HyNdZee]

I'd love to see something like this given a go in pre-season:

Lloris​

Walker Kaboul Vertonghen Ekotto​

Carroll Sandro​

Lennon Sigurdsson Townsend​

Bale​

 

[will verona]

Lloris
(WB)Walker-Kaboul-Vertonghen-Perreira(WB)
Sandro-Dembele
Lennon-Moutinho/Eriksen-Bale
Damiao

definitely a team capable of winning the league

 

[PhillyHotspur]

Lloris
Walker Kaboul Vertonghen DRose
Dembele Sandro Moutinho
Bale Benteke Siggy

 

[SantaHat]

Lloris
Walker(Smith) Kaboul(Dawson) Vertonghen(Caulker) DRose(BAE)
Dembele(Carroll) Sandro Moutinho(Holtby)
Bale(Lennon) Benteke(Ade) Siggy(Townsend)

and those back ups

Who's back up for Sandro though? Livermore?

I guess it would depend on need

Vs those minnows, Carroll needs a run

Vs quality, Parker would be useful

And definitely use Townsend as a back up to Siggy for a different dynamic with his pace n additional width on the left

:hudd:

 

[Conor Byrne]

Lloris
Walker-Kaboul-Vertonghen-Baines
Sandro-Dembele
Lennon - Bale - Ben Arfa
Benteke

 

[SantaHat]

Honestly forgot about Parker :avbfacepalm:

 

[Greaves_357]

Lloris

Walker Kaboul Dawson JV

stopped here

I can't believe anyone actually thinks Dawson should be dropped.And BAE instead of Daws? Beyond me

People dropping Daws instead of JV or BAE, crazy, crazy, crazy, IMHO.

Lloris
Walker - Kaboul - Vertonghen - Shaw
Sandro - Moutinho
Lennon Dembele Bale
Villa

Wishful thinking maybe, but with a top 4 finish all targets should be within our range, and the whole lot could all be bought for little more than £40m (half of which could come from a summer clear out)

Genuinely believe Dembele is better suited a little further up the pitch as well. As our most skillful and creative player I would like to see him in the final third and around the box a lot more than he currently is.

:hudd:

Big Tom isn't a like for like back up for Hurricane Sandro.

 

[gbsthfc]

Should be : Lloris/Walker, Kaboul, Vertonghen, Perreria/Sandro, Moutinho, Dembele/Lennon, Benteke, Bale.
Bench : Archer, Dawson, Rose, Carroll, Townsend, Sigurdsson, Adebayor.

Friedel is staying for another year.

Friedel is staying for another year.

Doesn't mean he should be getting in every squad. In fact as harsh as it is, he shouldn't play at all IMO

Meant for the bench lol. He should be ahead of Archer

 

[gbsthfc]

What is Friedel going to gain from being on the bench other than weekly wage; although Archer should be playing week-in week-out so I'm just completely wrong haha. Maybe Archer should play cup and Europa games.
