[OSRGull]

Mine would be...

Stockdale

Bruno
Goldson
Dunk
Ridgewell

Knockaert
Kayal
Stephens
Murphy

Zamora
Hemed

Bench: Maenpaa, Calderon, Greer, Sidwell, LuaLua, Skalak, Wilson

I'm torn between Hemed or Wilson, think Wilson hedges it for me.

Knockaert
Kayal
Stephens
Murphy

Zamora
Hemed

This would be my team too. Play Bobby Zee until he is knackered, (probably around the hour mark), then replace him, and Murphy, for Wilson and LuaLua. Two great players to bring off the bench and run at tiring defenders.

 

[Finchley Seagull]

Stockdale

Bruno
Goldson
Dunk
Ridgewell

Knockaert
Kayal
Stephens
Murphy

Zamora
Hemed

Bench: Maenpaa, Calderon, Greer, Sidwell, LuaLua, Skalak, Wilson

Think we might see one of LuaLua and Wilson (or even both) start for Murphy/Hemed. Assuming Skalak has his international clearance sorted, would be good to see what he can do from the bench.

Sidwell has to start for me, but I can't bring myself to drop Kayal or Stephens so I will leave that decision to CH! Murphy drops to bench (or out of squad?) and KLL or the bouncing Czech starts.

 

[Hugo Rune]

We'll go with a 4-4-2 but would not mind this 4-2-3-1 in the second half when we are playing on the break protecting a lead.

[bn1&bn3 Albion]

Stockdale

Bruno
Greer
Dunk
Ridgewell

Knockaert
Kayal
Stephens
LuaLua(If fit, if not Murphy)

Zamora
Wilson.

Wilson starting ahead of Hemed as he offers a bit of pace upfront.

Subs: Maenpaa, Calderon, Goldson, Sidwell, Murphy, Skalak, Hemed

 

[Mackenzie]

Signing Sidwell has given us options, we've now got the players for 4-5-1 and 4-4-2. At home against a decent (but not top) team I'd hope that we stick to 4-4-2. With that in mind:

Stockdale

Bruno-Goldson-Dunk-Ridgewell

Murphy-Stephens-Kayal-Knockaert

Hemed-Wilson

Subs: Zamora for Hemed (60 mins)
Lualua for Murphy (60 mins)
Sidwell for Wilson (78 mins)

​

Sidwell for Wilson (78 mins) - are you MAD?

I'd go for the 77th minute...

 

[Mackenzie]

Sidwell for Wilson (78 mins) - are you MAD?

I'd go for the 77th minute...

...but he scores his third on 78 minutes!

 

[bn1&bn3 Albion]

...but he scores his third on 78 minutes!

And you don't give him a minute to celebrate? You heartless *******...

 

[Milano]

The problem I have with Bobby starting is everyone knows he won't last the 90 minutes, including the opposition. They can plan for it accordingly.
Main hope for Friday is that Kayal, Stephens and Zamora have had almost 2 weeks recovery time. They looked like they needed it.

I feel sure that Skalak, who has only just arrived in this country, and hasn't even learned his team mates names yet, won't be starting the game.

Almost this for me but poss start with Wilson if he's over his virus, probably in place of Tomer because BZ seems to do better when he starts. Danger in that though is neither Wilson or BZ are really capable of 90 mins. Can't see CH not starting with 442, just wonder whether Stephens may get a rest and Sidwell will start.

Compared to a month ago, CH has the luxury of real competition for places and some difficult choices to make. Great isn't it ?

This! Especially when we still have Bong, Rosenior, Uwe and Baldock missing from that squad
