If You Were AVB.................

[Metalanimal]

To be fair this one is going to take some thought before I post my selection but I thought I would ask the questions regardless.

With the wealth of talent and ability that we have available to us if you were in AVB's position what would your starting 11, formations and subs bench be for the EPL be?

All I am decided on at this point is the back 4!

[Chelmsford_yid]

Not sure of my whole section, but I would try 2 upfront at some stage.

[Metalanimal]

Which 2 up front mate, I would actually try Soldado with Ade, reasoning being Ade's ability to hold up play and be the target man i think would suit Soldado big time.

[Yiddite]

For tonight's game against Hull play Adebayor and Defoe up front
against their back 5.
Yep agree in the League against the right teams Ade and Soldado would be worth a punt.

The problem isn't either one up front or two up front but midfield who is not servicing them regularly. Soldado or Defoe aren't getting the ball on a regular bases. I presume AVB is going to try wingers to solve this problem.

If Hull try defensive football again it might be worth trying Ade... and yes probably Soldado as well.

Considering this is the captial 1 cup I dont want to see any of our key players on the pitch as we have Everton at the weekend and that will be very hard for us.

If I was AVb I would try this in an EPL game:

GK - Lloris
RB - Walker
CB - Dawson
CB - Chriches
LB - JVT

LW - Siggy
CM - Sandro
CM - Eriksen
RW - Lennon

CF - Ade
ST - Soldado

Bench - Dembele, Lamela, Haughton, Paulinho, Holtby, Friedel,

We just have some much quality to choose from in midfield.

[Chelmsford_yid]

Anyone but Adebayor will do,Sorry but I have explained my reasons in other thread(s) why I dislike him.

[Metalanimal]

Just realised I missed out Townsend completely! lol

GK - Lloris
RB - Walker
CB - Dawson
CB - Chriches
LB - JVT

LW - Chadli
CM - Sandro
CM - Eriksen
RW - Siggy

CF - Townsend
ST - Soldado

Bench - Dembele, Lamela, Haughton, Paulinho, Holtby, Friedel, Defoe

I have to admit I am not keen on him but why we are paying him we may as well see if he can do a job, on his day and if he can be arsed way better than Defoe, trouble is we have all seen way to much of the cant be arsed Ade!

[Metalanimal]

AVB gone for the formation I put 4-4-1-1 is he a fan of Spursnetwork lol

Unless we sell him we haven't seen the end of him yet. Personally I would like to see him and Defoe sold in the transfer window and two new strikers brought in.

Most definitely We must not make the same mistake as last year, or we will pay the price once again.

[Glenn R]

After watching the game against Hull, in the Cup, I think it is time for Defoe to go. Ade also has gone past his sell by date. Another good striker will put pressure for team places.

[Metalanimal]

I think Kane has put his case forward quite well to be given an opportunity!

I very much want to see another striker come in during January, not sure if Pato is right for us major injury issues. I would very much like us to get Hernadez from Utd guy is just what we need!
