First 11
« on: June 27, 2011, 10:56:05 AM »
Now that Ash has gone, I was wondering how we'd line up in the Fulham game was tomorrow?  Basically, what is our best team.  Rules are that new players can only included once they've signed and of course all the current squad can be used. 

We can draw little tidbits from McLeish's comments about clean slates and what he said in the fan meeting.  It'll be interesting to see how this changes as the summer progresses, more deals are done and we start seeing some pre-season

As it's an away game, I'd expect in a 4-5-1:-

Guzan

Young
Dunne
Collins
Warnock

Albrighton
Makoun
Petrov
Delph
Downing

Bent

Subs:  Marshall, Cuellar, Collins, Bannan, Herd, Gabby Delfouneso.

Decent side that, all things considered.

Didn't McLeish say something about pairing Gabby with Bent?

If so it would be 4-4-2 i'd imagine.

After Tim's post I think I'm going to stop reading this thread until we've made a few signings...

Similar to most but I really want to see that midfield 3 at some point, I think they'd be great together going forward, would just need to work on them putting pressure on without having to kick people in the air.
