Title: Favoured starting line up?
Post by: Samdy Gray on Wednesday, February 27, 2008, 15:36:02
I've been thinking, what's our best XI?

Personally, I'd like to see:

Code:

                                    Brezovan

          Ifil                       Aljofree                    Vincent

                      Easton                     Peacock

Comminges                                                         Zaaboub

                                    Roberts

                         Cox                        Paynter


Maybe switch Kanyuka in for Vincent to add some height into the back three.

If Malpas wants deliveries into the box then playing Comminges as a winger is the way forward. I think Si Pie's been harping on about this for ages as well.

With everyone on A1 form:

Code:

                               Brez
Minge               Ifil         Aljofree            Vincent
Roberts          Easton        Peacock           JPM
                   Cox       Corr


4-4-2

But they aren't always on A1 form, at least we have options.

I'd go with Sam's team but change Vincent for Kanyuka and Zaaboub (i fucking hate that drama queen) for Mcnamee or JPM.

Post by: juddie on Wednesday, February 27, 2008, 22:43:11
it depends, because one week zaboub's awesome, the next he's poor - the same for roberts, JPM, it depends on what team turns up.

On current form would have to say:

                                 Brez

Ming                   jerel           aljofree             nico

JPM             easton             peacock            mcnamee

                             cox                    paynter/cox

I would have thought so.  Most people seem to agree that he's pretty good on the rare occasions when he's fit.

The fact that he's really good in the air helps our cluless hoofball merchants as well

Its got to be 442 all the way. Everyone knows how to play it, and is the most effective.

Agree. Goes with my previous point about clueless hoofball merchants as well.

I don't think anyone who plays league football is a hoofball merchant, they are clearly better than all of us at playing the game.  The problem is, under pressure it's the easy out ball.  You only have to look at the change from Macari to Ardiles to see that players can pass a ball around if they are given freedom to do so.  It takes a willing crowd and a brave Manager though, someone willing to accept that mistakes will happen when you start spraying the ball around on the grass.

The fact so many different line-ups get chosen goes to show it's not as simple as many post match reactionary comments would suggest.
