Who do you play in the middle?

[magneto]

Assuming we do sign Pennant (or any other right winger for that matter)...who does Gerrard partner in the middle?

 

Can Alonso, Sissoko and Gerrard play in the same 11 if Pennant plays?

[Swipe]

Bellamy

 

Gonzales Pennant

 

Gerrard

 

 

Alonso Sissoko

 

 

 

I think that would take some beating. Especially in away games.

[Knox_Harrington]

Different players for different games. It's a squad thing. Some of you seem to be struggling.

"Possibilites"

[Sion]

You can just imagine Rafa in his office laughing evily. "Think of the possibilites - MUAAHAHAHAAA"

[Guest Cardie]

We're not going to have a set team.

 

One game Gerrard could be on the right with Alonso and Sissoko in the in the middle the next it could be Gerrard and Sissoko with ALonso on the bench and then the next Gerrard and Alonso with Sissoko on the bench.

 

The set up I'm fairly sure of is that against Utd, Arsenal and Chelsea it'll be Sissoko and Alonso in the centre with Gerrard on the Right.

[Rory Fitzgerald]

If we had of signed Alves, I could see lots of 'possibilities' for the 3-5-2 system, and maybe even still

 

........Carra Hyypia Agger

Finnan.............................Riise/Aurelio

 

.......Gerrard Alonso Sissoko

 

............Bellamy Crouch

You can't drop Crouch, especially for away games- where he was unbelievably vital last season. He, in my opinion anyway, was the main reason why we improved so greatly away from home last season, compared to the previous year.

 

I'd just rotate between Xabi, Momo, Stevie and even Zenden for a few games. Then play all three (Sissoko, Alonso and Gerrard) in some more difficult games, with Crouch as a lone striker.

 

Alternatively we could play the Chelski style 4-5-1/4-3-3 formation, with Bellamy right wing and Gonzalez on the left wing, if you're that desperate for Bellamy to start.

This same question will be taxing opposition managers when we arrive at the ground.

 

"Look at them!", he'll be screaming, "Possibilities! Feckin thousands of them!", on his knees weeping, pleading and pointing frantically at the scribbled geometric mess of triangles and sharp angles on the whiteboard behind him, trying to fathom it all out for his poor befuddled players who sit their open-mouthed before him.

It wont go away even when it's a slap in da face reality in season

It's f***ing ridiculous. You'd think we are obliged to only pick one eleven.
