I know that we play Man Utd away first but when I go down to the Liberty to see us play Burnley. I would be very happy if we were able to start with a line-up something like this?
If we were to re-sign De Guzman he might be given Dyer's role?

Is be slightly surprised if Bony and Gomis didn't start our first home game, with a diamond behind them of WR,Shelvey,Britton,Gylfi |  |

I think that team looks very vulnerable on the right side of the defence. |  |

Swap Gylfi for Gomis then you'd be spot on in my opinion. Saying that, Bartley in for Amat as well. |  |

EDIT: Nevermind you have changed it now. Boo. [Post edited 20 Jul 2014 14:19]

So do I, although would maybe need someone more athletic than Rangel. | |

That side gets destroyed in midfield. We would end up sitting back, penned in and hoofing it away and straight back to the oppo. No pace up front.
Actually, Bony, Gylfi and Gomis have very little little pace between them. |  |

Rangel had a very long tough season .
With not so many games this season I think he will do great . | |

Well if that team doesn't beat Burnley at home
We may as well start buying some more Scottish league players
For the championship. | |

Not a bad sie except the worst goalkeeper in the premier league. Change Flappyhanski for Vorm and that would be ok. |  | | |

Liverpool used a similar diamond formation last season and it worked for them as they had Suarez, Sturridge and Sterling in the top half. At least one of them were always on the last defender and that stretched defences.
We dont have that pace and itll all get congested in the midfield. Our 'out' ball will be a hoof up the middle aimed at Bony/Gomis. Gylfi and Routledge would be passengers defensively and the right hand side would be Rangel & Shelvey. Slow.
Might work if we were chasing games though and we were putting the oppo under pressure. Would be worried if that was used every week. | |

What is your reasoning for including Bartley ?
20 mins v Everton
Not getting into a sh*t Birmingham side
Not getting in the Arsenal side
Being gash at Rangers |  | | |

I doubt it will be either, still think Monk will start with Williams and Chico as his first choice centre back pairing. |  |

With this I think we'd get overrun in midfield, not control the game and have no pace out wide. I can't see us playing 2 upfront at all.
Defence will hopefully be ok, but I have a feeling few on this forum are not too keen on Fabianski???
For me I'd have:
Vorm/Fabianski
Ben/Taylor, Ash, Chico(last chance saloon for me) Rangel
Monterro/Routs, Leon, Shelvey, Routs/Dyer
Gomis???/Gylfi
Bony
It'll be interesting too if JDG returns, happy times ahead hopefully  |  |

Nothing really mate, just fancy he is going to be our regular CB under Monk. But i will discount that nonsense you posted about him being gash though. | |
