Re: Formation porn for Spuddington?
Has anyone else thought about putting Perch on the right wing given Tottenhams strengths?
Re: Formation porn for Spuddington?
Not being funny, but Shola did the Shearer 'ball in the corner' thing superbly on Sunday until the lineo flagged for a non existant foul. He's perfect for a late sub, and did a decent job against Spurs already this season.
Re: Formation porn for Spuddington?
The only real question is who plays RW, Perch and Guthrie should be keeping their places in CM.
Re: Formation porn for Spuddington?
Definitely. Same team with Cisse in for Best. I'd play Obertan then launch a hopefully hungry Ben Arfa off the bench.

I'd go for Ryan Taylor on the right if he is fit, still not clear on whether he will be or not. Assuming he's not I'd go for Fergie!

To be honest I don't think two decent sub appearances make up for the 20-odd game in which he started and did nowt.Obertans Magic Head wrote:Why when Obertan came on and did well against villa?

Thats very unfair he wasn't bad in every game he played and always offered us something down the right.steviemac14 wrote:To be honest I don't think two decent sub appearances make up for the 20-odd game in which he started and did nowt.Obertans Magic Head wrote:Why when Obertan came on and did well against villa?

Agree with this but I'd have Colo instead of Willo to talk our young prodigy through the gameThe Secret Ingredient wrote:<krul>

A bit defensive but numbers in midfield and it would mean that Simmo and Santon could man mark Bale and Lennon (or whoever plays there for spurs) as there is 2 CB's and Perch covering Modric or VDV in that AM role that spurs use. We could then spring counter attacks and hopefully nick a goal.<willo> <colo>

It's not about money... It's about sending a message.

I actually like this alot, theres alot less experimentation with formations and tactics these days, theres probably a system nobody has developed yet which would render all others obsolete.
I love you all
Re: Formation porn for Spuddington?
The most tactical league in the world is Seria A by a long way, they're obsessed with formations and tactics. The latest big breakthrough is playing 3 in defence, 12 out of 20 teams played it one weekend and it's improved a lot of them.

Re: Formation porn for Spuddington?
Same line up that started last week.
Obviously with Cisse playing instead of best.
