Michel on the right... the world has finally gone mad

It is crazy antoinette :LOL:

maybe she is looking from the man city angle of playing opposite footed players on the flanks?

According to Tatts AM regards his primary target Dembele as a Centre Forward and from the inference made by Tatts Big Eck expects him to fly when given that regular spot in the first team squad! I also now agreed with MF that the aqcuisition of both Babel and Dembele looks unlikey, so with the inclusion of Clyne, I've revamped the first team lineup as follows:

NB: Pay particular attension to the striking options on the bench! **thumbup

............................Foster...............................


Carr........Johnson..........Dann...........Ridgwell


Larsson.......Gardner........Ferguson..........Valles


....................Zigic...............Dembele...............


Subs:
(Any seven from)

Taylor
Doyle
________
Clyne
Murphy
________
Michel
Fahey
Mutch
Bowyer
Sammons
________
O'Connor
Jerome
Mcfadden
Philips
Jervis

KRO :Blues:

Thats the team I feel realistically we can expect to start the season.

It should also be noted no other teams seem to have approached Dembele which suggests to me he will sign for us.

I really don't see why everyone thinks that Valles will simply be thrown in at left wing, and there not be a place in our side for McFadden.

I think Eck wants an out and out winger to play down the left, but the position is Faddy's for the time being IMO

Will see how he performs against the better teams like Derby before i think about chucking him in the starting 11, as well as seeing how Jerome plays with Zigic

Hes played well when O'Connor has been next to him, but it just leaves the frontline lacking pace, personally i would rather Jerome partner Zigic, but we haven't seen how that works yet

as we seen last season, Jeromes finishing was a bit to be desired for. he has the touch of race horse most of the time, the work he puts in and his pace are top draw, this partner can work, i agree.

have to say im in the same boat as MF for this one, Valles wont be thrown into the starting line up, hes had a few good performances against below par opposition, he never really got a start for any of the other teams he played for and they were at a lower level then we are (bar barca haha)

Will be in and around the bench if hes lucky i would say, but deffinatly alot of potential for the future imo, perhaps he can go out on loan and prove himself

I think your unconsionalbe desire for the likes of Suazo and N'Zogbia has colour your opinion about the potential of Blues players and targets this summer. As far as Mc'Fadden is concerned he has had his chance both as a Striker and Midfielder, I would take O'Conner, Jerome. Phillips off the bench as a sub first in any match! Enric Valles during the Far East tour has more than demonstrated his potential and that he can do a job for us on the winging left midfield and with AM's resovle to use the prospect of Denbele as a Centre Forward playing off both him and Zigic, Valles fits nicely into the squad as LM IMO.

....Unless you think we should get the right footed Left winger Babel for the proven role he does not want to be saddled with?

Que Sera Sera..........!

KRO :Blues:

I think you'll find its you who's been banging on about Babel since bloomin January, not me!

Valles was a gamble... by all accounts he's done well on our tour, but look at the sides we've played, hardly top class opposition are they.


If you seriously think an international class, and our most creative player, McFadden, will be dropped for an unknown Valles, after three pre-season games, you need to think again.

I would be chuffed at that line-up for Sunderland. Obv Dembele + Camoranesi are only if we capture their signature, but if we dont then it would be Seb and Fadds, or possibly a different winger should we bring in an alternative to those guys.

Possibly Konchesky to contend with Ridgewell for LB spot if we signed him, I definately dont think Murphy should just walk into Ridgewells spot after all his hard work last season whilst Murphy was injured, however Konchesky may prove to be miles ahead of Ridge when it comes to quality at that position. Definately dont think Murphy should start though.
