Team v Basel

[carpediem991]

No game on the following weekend so full strength. Would prefer Carroll to Parker and anyone to Dempsey.
Caulker in it for the corners and free kicks. We need every doal threat we have. 1-1 isn't enough, 3-3 is.

and Lloris in goal please (lol)

-------------------Lloris-------------------
Walker--Dawson----Caulker--VErty---
-----------Carroll----Dembele------------
Lennon------Holtby-------Sigurdsson-
----------------Adebayor------------------

Subs: Friedel, Naughton, Assou, Huddlestone, Parker, Dempsey, Coulthirst/ Ceballos

 

[Blake Griffin]

lloris​

walker dawson vertonghen ekotto​

parker huddlestone​

holtby dembele siggy​

adebayor​

​

i know friedel will start though.​

 

[CJMurray]

Lloris​

Walker Dawson Vertonghen Assou-Ekotto​

Parker​

Dembele Carroll​

Holtby------------------------Sigurdsson​

Adebayor​

​

As long as Dempsey's not playing then i'll be fine.​

 

[Yid121]

Presuming Lennon, Defoe, Bale and Gallas are still injured, I'd go with:

-------------------Lloris-------------------
Walker--Dawson----Vertonghen---BAE
-----------Huddlestone----Parker--------
Holtby------Dembele-------Sigurdsson-
----------------Adebayor------------------

Subs: Friedel, Caulker, Naughton, Livermore, Carroll, Ceballos, Dempsey

 

[kaz Hirai]

Huddlestone starting against that team full of pace, quick closing down and work rate??

bloody madness, I hope huddlestone is nowhere near that game

 

[mpickard2087]

Definates:

Lloris
Walker
Dawson
Vertonghen
Ekotto
Parker
Dembele
Holtby
Sigurdsson
Adebayor

Then I don't know whether we go with Carroll and a 4-3-3, or as the team didn't play too badly today whether we continue with Dempsey in 4-2-3-1 so we don't move anyone else around.

 

[BK007]

Dempsey will start. AVB persists on being infuriating.

 

[mpickard2087]

Huddlestone starting against that team full of pace, quick closing down and work rate??

This, he did ok today at spraying the ball wide but it was perfect situation for him.

Team I want

Adebayor​

Sigurdsson-------------------Cebellos​

Dembele------Holtby​

Livermore​

BAE--Vertonghen Dawson--Walker​

Lloris​

I would bring Carroll on at 60-70mins for Holtby, If not swap Carroll and Cebellos and put holtby RW. Also maybe Caulker for Livermore and Vert as DM but dropping as CB cover when BAE and Walker push forward​

​

What we will see​

Adebayor​

Sigurdsson-------------------Dempsey​

Dembele------Holtby​

Parker​

BAE--Vertonghen Dawson--Walker​

Freidel​

 

[SugarRay]

Same as today except bring in BAE for Caulker and move Verts to partner Daws.

Really looking forward to this one. I get the feeling we are going to pull it off. Don't ask me what I'm basing that on though!!!

 

[McGoose]

Would like to see the two Toms in the middle to give them some game time.

Friedel
Walker - Caulker - Verts - BAE
THudd - Carroll
Dembele - Holtby - Sig
Ade

 

[felmani26]

Friedel (more's the pity)

Walker Dawson Vertonghen BAE

Dembele Parker Carroll

Cebellos Adebayor Sigurdsson

 

[sunnydelight786]

This may sound crazy but I would start Hudd in this game. Some of his best games for us have been in Europe as he is allowed time on the ball. With that in mind my team would be...

Lloris,
walker, Caulker, Daws, Vert,
Parker, Hudd,
Sigg, Dembele, holtby,
Ade.

No flippin Brad please!!!

What has being given time on the ball in previous games "in Europe" got anything to do with how FC Basel play? Each game should be taken on individual merit (read: they press like fuck, no Huddlestone against Basel).

Lloris​

Walker - Daws - Jan - BAE​

Carroll - Dembele​

Ceballos (Lennon if fit) - Sig - Holtby​

Ade​

​

Unfortunately, Lennon won't be fit and Hugo won't play.​

One of the very few fit creative players we have, seeing we need to score I would play him ahead of Clint who quite frankly offers nothing.
