    which means Neville drops back to RB and Heitinga in a DM role eventually with Felli?


    .................Howard
    Neville..Jags..Distin..Baines
    ...........Heitinga.Felli
    Mirallas...Naismith..Pienaar
    ................Anichebe

    no way Moyes drops Osman right now.........Osman actually had one of his best games of the season at swansea last season

    Coleman.........................................................Baines
    .......................Fellaini.................Osman
    Mirallas...........................................................Pienaar

    I would personally play that, but the odds on that team being selected is about 5000/1

    I like that formation a lot. It would help out seamus a lot as i think he is too inbetween from fb to winger but i think we should go with this formation as its my favortie (granted this is for when everyone is fit)


                                                      ............Howard..............
                        coleman..............jags......................distin............bainesy
                                                       ...............Felli............
                                          ...........Gibbo.......       ......Ossie............
    .................Mirallas............................                              ........................Peanuts................
                                                           ...........Jelly.............

    It will kind of be a blessing in disguise if Hibbo isn't fit for the Swansea game..... means Neville won't be playing in the middle (thank _fuck!!!!!!!)

    Hopefully Felli will be put back where he belong's in DM.

    Since Jelly and Gibbo are both out too, I'd personally like to see -

    ............................................Howard

    ..........Neville..................Jags.........Distin................Baines

    ..............................................Felli

    .........Coleman..................... Osman.......................Peanuts

    .......................................... Naismith

    ...........................................Mirallas

    Most likely won't happen and we will see Vic upfront...... whoopyfuckingdoodaa.....

    terrible that one .... way too much space inbetween the wingers and ossie ... we will get cut to shreads if we play like that against someone like swansea

    yeah... mate, there's still 5 in midfield, so there isn't "

    if you are stackin three straight down the middle then yes. have you ever played the game? ossie will find it impossible to mark britton and de guzman as felli will be picking up michu and naismith will be worthless there as a sitting striker if he has to come back and pick up either britton or de guzman all the time

    _fuck me, your a beauty, ain't ya......

    Yes, I have played football.

    I was not setting the formation as it looks...... It's set as their position.... felli (DM), Osman(CM) and Naismith (supporting the striker).

    There is nothing to stop Felli pushing up/staying more central when we have possession (as he does already), Naismith coming back into the middle to help Osman etc....

    _fuck me..... If I took that formation as it looked, rather than their positions, I wouldn't trust myself to manage an under 8's team....

    It's a 4-5-1 formation.....

    the key to tomorrow is how we set up......i seem to remember last season, we pretty much played with 3 forwards (ossie & pienaar pushed up), and put pressure on their backline when they had the ball......swansea like to play from the back, and by preventing their defenders from settling on the ball we forced them to play the ball long and basically hand possession back to us.....was a masterstoke by Moyes and worked a treat.......

    why would you not show the formation as it is played? that just doesnt make sense to me ... i was talking about when we don't have the ball ... having naismith sit that far deep when we don't won't allow us to get out of our own half (mirallas isn't a release point we can rely on to hold up the ball) ... notice how when we play with a support striker they line up as a flat two when we dont have the ball ...

    Because, sugartits, I'm not like you, I like to be different..... That ok with you like?

    Obviously, Naismith wouldn't sit that deep when we don't have possession or on the break...... I've noticed that he does a lot of running around full stop.... so it's not like he would be a spare _cock at a wedding....Support the striker, but play a big part in the center.....

    Suggesting we play 6 in midfield then? Or 2 up top?
    You are confusing.....

    Lets see you'r team and how you would put the formation for Swansea game then....

    never said you had to be like me just saying it was confusing ... and you haven't actually read my posts have you? when did i ever suggest 6 in mid or 2 up top? you realize you are asking naismith to get back to the edge of our box and to fly up to half in an instant? since we dont have the personnel to play my preferred formation (see above) here is how we should line up against them


                                              howard
               coleman      jags               distin     baines
                                      felli             ossie
                 mirallas               naismith          peanuts
                                               big vic (he earned his millionth chance)


    Felli takes de guzman out of the game and ossie sticks with britton while michu gets passed on to the closest center back and graham the other

    No... I'm not suggesting Naismith play's box to box.... I'm suggesting he play's central, but supports the striker, which he can do very well.
    Felli is there to cover the box our end....

    I don't think (personally) Coleman is ready to play RB just yet. Although Nev cooks my head, I'd rather him there right now...

    Either way, I see what you are saying, and I'm sure you will also see my side of it too.

    I don't like you now..... I don't like anyone who want's to play Vic....

Howdy, Stranger!
