I'd be seriously tempted to start Ryo, from what I've seen of him he looks like he could be a Gareth Bale of sorts for us. I'd go for:

Scenzeny
Sagna Vermaelen Kos Gibbs
Song
Fab Nasri
Gervinho RvP Ryo

Same team as you except Walcott instead of Ryo up front.

If he gets a W/P he can be eased into the team slowly, used as an impact sub etc.

Walcott + Gervinho/Ryo should give us pace up front in spades, something we've been lacking heavily. With Wilshere/Ramsey to come in MF when needed, there is reasonable strength in depth actually.

Desperately need some defenders though as that left side looks very weak.

You can rule out Gibbs now, someone will brush past him and he'll collapse in a crumpled heap and be out for 6 weeks.

There's matchstick houses which are less brittle than him.

Whatever team we pick from what we've got at the moment, it's not really good enough.

Not miserable at all to be honest, just realistic.....pretty much the same team that bottled it badly at the end of the season and got beaten and held by some awful teams.

Not really looking forward to the season anyway, haven't missed the football that much as it's just not that enjoyable to watch these days. No excitement around the place either.

Hope he sorts the injury problems out.

He's certainly been putting in some effort at the gym. You seen the size of the guy in the training pics. He's gone from a waif to a fucking beast in a couple of months.

If this is the squad we have at the start of the season and lets face, it probably will be other than some leaving and if it was injury free :lol: then my team would be

Sir Chesney :(

Sagna :) Djourou :( Vermaelen Gibbs :(

Walcott :) Song :( Cesc :( Nasri :) Gervinho :(

RVP

In short, we're fucked

Id have put a smiley after Verm and RVP but can only do 10 images in a post so lets just say the juries out on them. We can do better in both of their positions but id be happy enough if both started the season with us

New GW is having a shocker

We did them last season on pace, went for the fastest line up we have.

Although Ryo has the potential to become one of those Wenger signings we all know he is capable of making
I cant see him starting just yet. . .he definitely showed promise on loan and it doesnt look like he is going back out there
early days yet, waiting period et all :yawn:

Frimpong is one Im looking forward to seeing pre season

A bloke without a Visa.

A bloke without a Visa.

He'll be fine, Statinho got one under the proviso of an exceptional talent. Although I guess that is unfortunately accurate.

Very surprised at some of the line ups that have been posted.

Chesney

Sagna Djourou Vermaelen Gibbs

Song

Wilshere Nasri

Walcott Fabregas Arshavin

RVP

Subs: Fabianski, Kos, Ramsey, Gervinho, Chamakh, Rosicky & Eboue

So who do we have up front, I make it Vela, RVP and Chamakh...we still have Bendtner but obviously reports claim he's on his way out.

Not exactly a great choise though is it, ideally I'd like to play 2 up front and that doesn't include players who aren't really out and out forwards like Walcott, Gervinho and Arshavin.

The sad thing is I counted to make sure I named 11 players a couple of times and was sure I only named 11.

Depends.

Against Newcastle I'd stick Vermalen-Djourou as the partnership unless we get Samba and then play Vermaelen at LB but ordinarily:

Sczesfn

Sagna Koscielny Vermaelen Gibbs/Jenkinson

Song Wilshere Nasri

Theo RvP Gervinho

With switchable roles for Diaby when we need more height/stupidity and Rosicky when we need a little more work and nous.

Dog Toffee
14-07-2011, 04:03 PM
I still have hope for Diaby, unlike for Denilson, Bendy, Almunia and Vela he can be effective against rough teams, but mainly a bench player. We still need at least one center-back though so at the moment my ideal team would be-

Chesney

Sagna DJ/Kosielney Verminator Gibbs

-------------Song-------Wilshere---------------
Walcott/Gervinho----Fabregas------Nasri
----------------------RVP--------------------

Subject to complete change according to transfers and injuries. In fact, this team could well never happen.

We're an offensive team, why bother with defence :coffee:
