I'm no nzogbia fan

But with Adama out are people really saying that gabby or Ayew are a better bet for the right sided position in a 4231?

Yes.

Yes.
I'd rather stick an umbrella into the ground up on the right wing than play N'Zogbia...and Gabby for that matter.

Gabby had a good second half on the right against Bournemouth mind, but no he simply has to be dropped after his Palace display as does Bacuna.

With Traore out and Gabby and Ayew out of form, it does leave us short of pace up top alright

Sinclair has never played well away from Villa Park for us, but would try him central for this game, with Grealish on the left and Gil or Veretout on the right of those 3. Sanchez and Gueye holding. Gestede up top again, Sinclair will read his knock downs better centrally

Anything is better than Gabby who would need the knock downs in braille to be able to read them

As per the Sinclair thread, I could maybe see him as part of a two with gestede.  But if you're talking about a three behind gestede surely grealish is central and Sinclair left, not vice versa

They'd swap pretty naturally I'd imagine/hope.  It's only really defensively that positions need be fixed rigidly.  The more interchangeable the "Three" are the better.

Too? Can you stop raising our hopes.

Seriously, if we can get rid of N'Zogbia AND get some money for him, I'll give little Timmy an extra month right up until the end of the year, maybe even as far as the first days of January (but not the FA Cup 3rd round, for obvious reasons.

Imagine getting Tonev and Nzogbia gone for actual money. And Senderos.

I thought he was going to a Bulgarian club called Noblacksallowed, although I hear he's also got a San Marino club after him, which is about his level, Rowzed FC.
