Can I start one official formation thread?

[Dominus Maximus]

It's the Champions League finale. We are playing Real Madrid.

How would you set the team?

Bench:

(will the thread keep living on???)

Fowler because you think he's the best player to play the lone striker or Fowler because he's Fowler?

[Rory Fitzgerald]

Its the Champions League Final and you are pairing up Gonzalez and Aurelio on the left without seeing them play ??

 

Joking mate, I actually think we may see the 3-5-2 system re-visited. It worked a treat up at St James Park when we won 3-1

----------------Reina--------------------

---Finnan Carragher Hyppä Riise---

----------Alonso---Sissoko-------------

----------------Gerrard-----------------

Luis Garcia-------------------Bellamy

----------------Kuyt-------------------

I'd wait until we are 3 or 4 down before making any rash decisions on line-ups, me.

Real Madrid can't defend against that, even with Cannovaro.

If we do sign kuyt have him and bellamy up front and drop either alonso or sissoko.

[Guest ninja norman]

Yer all mad....

Clearly insane - it's a final and therfore Kewell must start.

[David Hodgson]

Jeezuz, does Pennant not even merit a start at £8m ?

 

My dream teeeem :

 

==========Reina

 

=Finnan (Alves)===Hyypia==Carragher==Riise

 

==========Sissoko===Alonso===

 

=Pennant========Gerrard=============Gonthaleth

 

============Bellameeeee

Have we signed another Gerrard?

[Guest Gerrards Jockstrap]

Any team has to have a midfield three of Gerrard on the right and Xabi and Momo in the middle. On the left remains to be seen in terms of how Gonzalez plays and how Kewell returns from injury. Anyone leaving Sissoko on the bench is on crack.

[wildcatlh]

Have we signed another Gerrard?

 

It's part of our cloning program. It's why the club hasn't had the money to sIgN bIg nAmEs (sorry). It's a huge investment.

 

By 2008, our formation will be:

 

Reina

 

Carragher-Carragher-Carragher-Carragher

 

Gerrard-Gerrard-Gerrard-Gerrard

 

Fowler-Fowler
