Team V Zagreb

[am_yisrael_chai]

Agree on Modric, he will be the first name on the team sheet for this game. Also think Zoko should be given a chance at CH.

Gomes

Gunter
Zoko
Woody
Bale

GDS
Jenas
Thudd
Lennon

Modric

Bent

I don't think your defence is tall enough mate

 

[punky]

Modric won't want a rest against his old club!

Indeed he won't. I meant give him a run out in the last 20 mins or so. We need him fresh for City though, so hopefully he'd be professional and understand.

Bale, Gunter and Woodgate are all over 6ft...




Turns out Gunter isn't. I'll take that back! :lol:

 

[robbiesavagehasbreasts]

Saved our bacon against Wisla, though.

And I am grateful for that.

But still don't want him in the team.

Zoko is 5"11, compared to Donkey Daws 6"3 but he definitely has the edge on pace and started his career at CH.

Quite frankly, whatever SS57 may say about the Wisla game, I don't want Dawson anywhere near the team.

 

[DC_Boy]

Sanchez/Jansson

Gunter
Dawson
Woody
Bale/Rocha

GDS
Zokora
Hudd
Lennon/Bale

Modric

Bent/Campbell

for me the lge is priority ATM

I think we need to win all the remaining group games so I can't see too many being rested. That said we might see a couple different faces on the bench. Maybe Ghaly & Rocha back.

Rocha, Boateng, Taarabt, Ghaly & Stalteri were not registered by the club, and cannot play at this stage.

Thanks for that, interesting to read they are not registered.

Anyone know why this game has not yet been picked for tv coverage?

 

[VegasII]

Thanks for reminding us...I'd forgotten they hadn't been listed. So much for my previous post!

Doubt we'll see many changes then.

The youth team were in cracking form again on Saturday, winning 6-0.

Given pretty much the entire Academy is registered, I wouldn't be surprized to see Bostock make the bench. From reports on Spurs Odyssey over the past few weeks, Smith, Townsend & Mason are also playing well - but RB and attacking/wide midfield are not the positions where we're short of numbers.

Of the eligible reserves, Dervitte & Danny Rose must have a chance of making the bench.

is danny rose still trying to be a gangsta on his homesite?

Its funny on that list Aaron Lennon has the number 74 and is designated on "Player list B"

Eddie Bailey is smart enough to understand the A & B lists. I'm just bemused & mystified.

However, it's to do with "homegrown" players, and number of years at the club etc. Fabregas is on the goons' Player List B as well (because bizarrely he qualifies as homegrown):

why not take the opportunity and try Pav and Bent together? Modric on the left (hasnt worked so far)?

Really hope Giovani Dos Santos gets a game

Jenas, Modric, Ekotto, King, all rested. Remember we have a tough game against ManShitty a day later.

My team for Saturday would then be:

Gomes

Bentley .. Corluka .. Jenas .. Lennon

Modric .......

............ Pavlyuchenko
