Window Cleaner Posted 22 March, 2014 Share Posted 22 March, 2014 So why not stick Maya in there? Would MUCH prefer to keep Lovren alongside Fonte with Adebayor to cope with and with Spurs having pace down the wings we need Clyne & Shaw out wide. Having Maya in could almost allow Clyne & Shaw to play more as wing backs and keep the Spuds wide men deeper. We've all moaned at times about plan B's, we've had opposition teams pressing US much more of late so no reason why MP wouldn't try a small tinkering with our shape. #nodieawhathewilldo But do think Reed deserves a chance now Because Lovren and Chambers have both played in midfield, don't think Maya ever has, might be wrong. My choice would to play José and Maya at the back with Dejan just in front of them as a sort of sentinel with 2 CMs in front of him and 2 AMs in front of them, 1 striker.

jasoneuelllfanclub Posted 22 March, 2014 Share Posted 22 March, 2014 Why is everyone so certain Cork won't play? Poch said he is doubtful however he was in training yesterday so a chance he maybe fit. Also Morgan has "Slight problem" so he may be ok to play.

Lighthouse Posted 22 March, 2014 Share Posted 22 March, 2014 I think if it's anyone it will be Davis and JWP playing deeper, with Lallana, JRod and Guly in front. That's worst case, assuming Cork, VW, Morgan and Gaston are all out but I'd be surprised if that's the case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's worst case, assuming Cork, VW, Morgan and Gaston are all out but I'd be surprised if that's the case. Yes but.. IN the speculation stakes, Guly was also mentioned (as with Gaston) as having to be "assessed". It's a worst case scenario, we COULD have Cork, VW, Morgan, Guly, Gaston all missing. Kind of leaving JWP AL & Davis as our only fit midfielders. It's incredibly unlikely but at least it makes a change from normal threads. Hmmm didn't SRL used to play in midfield? looked good defensively last few minutes against Norwich.......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VectisSaint Posted 22 March, 2014 Share Posted 22 March, 2014 Nothing short of a win tomorrow will do now if we are to keep our faint championship hopes alive. Even then we have to overturn a 33 goal difference compared with Chelsea. Hate settling for 2nd again Never changes for me though, always the one team I really want to beat whenever we play them. I reckon we have a good chance, but depends who is and isn't injured. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint Charlie Posted 23 March, 2014 Share Posted 23 March, 2014 Need a good start. They have quite a few confidence players in the midfield and catch them on a good day and they are very dangerous.
