Bewildered Posted 12 March, 2016 Share Posted 12 March, 2016 Martina at CB? Surely Bertrand at CB with Martina at RB and Targett at LB since Bertrand has been good when he has played there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint_Tony Posted 12 March, 2016 Share Posted 12 March, 2016 At least Yoshida isn't starting. I get knocked on here every time for saying it, but Stoke are a very good side, decent line up they have out today and we will do well to get a point.

Shroppie Posted 12 March, 2016 Author Share Posted 12 March, 2016 Martina ahead of Cedric again. Is Cedric carrying an injury? Sent from my D6503 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lallana's Left Peg Posted 12 March, 2016 Share Posted 12 March, 2016 So it's either: 4-2-3-1 with Martina at right back and Bertrand at centre-half and Tadic and Long either side of Davis. or 3-5-2 with Martina and Bertrand at centre-half and Davis at wing-back and Tadic behind Pelle and Long. Either way it's a very confusing team when you look at the bench. Don't feel too optimistic here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fitzhugh Fella Posted 12 March, 2016 Share Posted 12 March, 2016 Doesn't say much for Koemans faith in Yoshida but perhaps he is injured as he's not on the bench either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's all very confusing. I've no doubt there is a plan but I'd rather see Cedric and Mane on the pitch ahead of Martina and Tadic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
captainchris Posted 12 March, 2016 Share Posted 12 March, 2016 KgYou dont talk about the team do you? you just constantly critisise everything about the team and manager and most of it is showing you up to be utterly clueless. As far as my posting goes i post my opinion and comment when i chose as you seem to do but unlike you i try to be a bit accurate I suppose we have to look forward to your looney rant against RK soon too.... And there you again ranting about other posters ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

St Lej Posted 12 March, 2016 Share Posted 12 March, 2016 Is Koeman serious when he says we are pushing for Europe. Seems to me he possibly thinks we don't have a great deal to play for so is trying out certain fringe players? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems to me he possibly thinks we don't have a great deal to play for so is trying out certain fringe players? My only thinking is that he knows we're a momentum team and right now we have bad momentum so he's trying to do something different to stop the rot early before it extends into another few games.

Surely Soares is our best right back though and surely just putting Yoshida in at CB makes more sense than playing the inexperienced Martina and Targett at full back against a very tricky Shaqiri? Whilst also moving Bertrand out of his favoured position? Sorry but to me it seems absolutely ridiculous and massively weakens our defensive line up more than is already necessary.

Saint_clark Posted 12 March, 2016 Share Posted 12 March, 2016 Yoshida is on the bench - as is Cedric and Mane. It's all very confusing. I've no doubt there is a plan but I'd rather see Cedric and Mane on the pitch ahead of Martina and Tadic. Martina is a bit taller and stronger than Cedric and hasnt been as bad as people make out. Mane has been anonymous and Tadic deserves his chance - he started this season in great form and has since been in and out of the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He did it last season too when Morgan was out... He always shifted Alderweireld to CDM instead of getting a recognised CDM as sub. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint_clark Posted 12 March, 2016 Share Posted 12 March, 2016 Long has proven himself as the best striker we have available. Hoping it's 2 up top with Tadic in behind, but know it won't be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
