well, we are keeping the same players through the field in Cech, Terry, Lampard and Drogba low quality opposition? fulham are a good team now and it wasn't once a week...sunderland on tues was followed by fulham on sunday . I don't think it runs like a well oiled machine....Scolari barely changed things, look how that turned out...and to bring it to extremes Hiddink didnt change much and it worked in the short term too as it did with scolari so for now we're ok wit it, I think carlo's a capable manager and will make changes when necessary
I wouldn't actually be surprised if Sheva starts this match you know, I think his shooting ability will help against teams that are well organised at the back
he's 24 now (remember the infamous party a few weeks ago ) People complain the squad is too old then want us to offload our younger players lol, Kalou's dribbling is fantastic, he's one of the players in the squad that can take on and beat players.
Rotation is fine, it's not like he's going to be having Turnball starting every fortnight is it. I'm glad we're doing it and games are getting spread around the squad, I was frustrated with Hiddink always using the same team and I understand why he had to do it but still :-/
Yeah that's true, a pundit said that we'll have better away days than at home because teams will park the bus more like Hull did but as Esk said I think they'll be on a high so hopefully it will play into our hands. I'm going to the game
Strange how people don't rate Kalou, If he leaves then good for him if he's going to get the playing time he deserves and fans with a brain. the last 2 seasons he's been played out of position and he's a striker. that's his natural position and where he should play, and gladly where he plays now under Carlo because he asked him to play him as a striker. Blue Lion is right...
They wanted to win the game sherlock....UPSET sunderland = winning the game as we did Went to the game it was brilliant, away crowd was great, YES we sand Deco's, Drogba's, Terry's, SHEVVA!!!, Sturridges, and Essiens name mainly yesterday
yeah about that, I went at the end of last season too! Enjoyed myself though + 1 more friend this time haha so we're gonna have a good time at the game hopefully, the journey is murder though when you just want to go home after I'm still debating about whether going to stoke, think i'll wait to get spuds tickets
Depends on the personel used really Like when we just have midfielders out there and no wingers the midfielders usually switch roles varying the left, base and right of the diamond.
