cut and paste from goal scoring midfielder thread:

---------------Gomes

Corluka---King-----Bassong------Bale

--------Palacios---Huddlestone

Lennon-------Krancjar-------Modric
-------------Defoe/Pav

doubt defoe can work up top by himself, so 3 behind need to push up when he have the ball as much as poss, especially niko who is more a striker dropping deep than midfield in that formation

that will probably be the team (re first post), with the usual king doubts, bassong coming in if need be. Perhaps lennon will start instead of bentley if hes ready.

I would go with Pav or Gudjohnson instead of crouch, but doubt harry will.

Defoe....Gudjohnsen​


Their style of play should really suit our passing game. So i would really like to see how Modric does in the middle alongside Palacios.

I'm worried about the state of their pitch. It's a real mess, almost a throw back to the 70's.

Gomes,
Charlie, Dawson, King/Bassong, Bale,
Bentley, Hudd, Wilson, Kranjcar,
Defoe, Pav.

That would be my teram but HR will go for Rodney + Modric instead of Kranjcar + Pav.

Poor old Bassong. I feel really sorry for the guy. Surely it'll be King if possible then Bassong midweek???

Defoe would be useless on his own, he goes walkabouts on away games as it is.

Crouchy will start (and score!)
it'll be the same as normal with hopefully Lennon on bench getting a few mins at the end or 20 if we really need him.

What I want to see

Gomes

Corluka King Dawson Bale

Bentley Palacios Modric Kranjcar

Pav Defoe​

What Harry will probably pick

Gomes

Corluka King Dawson Bale

Bentley Palacios Huddlestone Modric

Crouch Defoe​

Really hoping Crouch get's dropped. He hasn't been great lately, and I'd love to see either Pav of even Gudjohnsen given a go. We cut Wigan open with some good football at the Lane, and although their pitch might be shit, we should still be able to play some good stuff. If Lennon is fit and ready to go I'd like to see him come on if Wigan have decided to park the bus and we're struggling. Him and Crouch on at the 60 minute mark.

Yeah I know, but who will go out then? Maybe if Lennon is out, he'll get picked. And of course you never know with King...
