AS Monaco Vs Tottenham: Pre Season Match Thread

[Mouse!]

Walker at centre back against Falcao, this'll be good. Though to be fair, any of our centre backs against Falcao is a worry

It's either him or Huddlestone/Livermore. At least Walker can outpace him? I'll be very surprised if Kaboul plays.

I'm a little concerned how little pre-season action our first 11 is getting. The opener is bearing down on us, not to mention the NLD and Europa qualification. I'm resigned to whatever happens with Bale, but the haphazard preparation for the season is frustrating.

Avb seems to always be overly causious about new signings. Chelsea played their Conferation players the other day

Shame, we get in paulinho early, but he can only feature one pre season game.

What I'd like to see:

----------------------Lloris----------------------
Walker----Dawson-----Kaboul-----Rose-----
-----------------Huddlestone-------------------
-----------Dembele--------Holtby---------------
--Lennon----------Defoe-------------Chadli--

Subs: Friedel, Naughton, Livermore, Parker, Sigurdsson ,Townsend, Falque, Carroll, Adebayor

Arghhhh.... nooooooooo.... horrible team!!!!

Back five ok. Anyone but Hudd, Parker for instance, but if we're thinking about next season then Carroll or Gylfi. Adebayor before Defoe - on which note I'm surprised we're thinking of selling him, I'd expect Defoe (who I love because he's yid through and through, but is severely limited as a lone striker because of his lack or work-rate and intelligence) to be sold long before we considered selling Ade who's a perfect back-up option for Soldado. One other thing on Ade, I read that people think City are paying his wages, this is incorrect I believe, as far as I know he got a lump-sum signing on fee in lieu of high wages, and it was City who were forced to pay it, hence the delay in signing for us. I think his wages are approx £90k p/w and we pay them all.

p.s. instead of all this -----------------player--------------- malarkey to get your team centered why do't you just use the standard [center... /center] formatting?

You can just use the centre formatting icon on the tool-bar as well:

Someone explain that formation?

Also Parker and Livermore really?


Falcao vs Fryers and Livermore

Hopefully Sandro & Paulie on bench

Very disappointing team and subs for me. We need our near strongest 11 to have at least one run out together before Palace.

WOW

 

[raf18]

What the actual fuck! For fucks sake what an amateur mistake selling caulker... im not mad just frustrated.

 

[EnfieldYiddo]

We're going to get slaughtered at the back. Up against arguably the world's best conventional number 9 and two young players out of position lol. Lucky it's only a friendly I guess.

 

[13VanDerBale13]

Why is Paulinho not even on bench?, I doubt he will play now vs Palace

 

[knilly]

Maybe Fryers pace is what AVB sees in him, helping us play a high line

 

[carpediem991]

Travelling to Monaco without Centre Backs. #likeaboas

 

[jimmy_the_yid]

Calm down folks, tis only a friendly!

 

[hughy]

Ha. From Dawson, Verts, Kaboul, Gallas and Caulker at the beginning of last season to Livermore and Fryers at the beginning of this.
