I dont want to see anyone in the squad who isnt 100% gonna be here when the transfer window closes.

Just want whoever plays to put in maximum effort so we go through.

Upinsmoke · « **Reply #161 on:** August 21, 2011, 04:09:18 pm »

Think we're bound to see some fringe players and young lads in the squad, pretty confident we'll get a win, i'd go with.

Doni

Flanno Soto Skrtel Aurelio (if fit)

Spearing
Shelvey

Henderson Maxi
Cole

Ngog

Subs: Jones, Robinson, Coady, Meireles, Sterling, Downing, Carroll

redoneusa · « **Reply #162 on:** August 21, 2011, 04:14:39 pm »

Don't give a toss on the formation, would be decent to see Cole play, Alberto, Poulsen. Real chance for any fringe players to make a push to at least make the bench.

Will give Doni a rare run out as well.

timmyonions · « **Reply #163 on:** August 21, 2011, 04:20:23 pm »

I think we can send down a squad of players that need game time.In other words nobody who has played both league games.I don`t see why Henderson is being mentioned in teams he`s started both league games and will be in the squad/team v Bolton.

Something like this should be enough to get a result there.

Doni
Flanno,Kyriarkos,Wisdom(or Skrtel if fit),Robinson
maxi,Poulsen,spearing,Aurelio
Joe cole,ngog

Scribble8 · « **Reply #164 on:** August 21, 2011, 04:23:35 pm »

Hopefully we pick a strong team who will take care of it.

Tough one to call, regarding putting players in the shop window or picking a team of young/squad players who haven't played many minutes yet. I'd pick players who have played less than a game and a half in the league so far. Something like...

Kuyt
Aurelio Meireles Shelvey Maxi
Spearing
Robinson Skrtel Kelly Flanagan
Doni

Supplement that with the likes of Suso, Sterling, Coady, Eccleston, Wisdom and Amoo.

That leaves out Cole, Pacheco, Aquilani, Ngog, Poulsen, Degen, Insua and Wilson - all players I can see us selling/loaning out over the next 10 days.

Barefoot Doctor · « **Reply #166 on:** August 21, 2011, 04:48:14 pm »

I'd use this game to give Danny Wilson a chance at CB. He's played in the Champions League so Exeter shouldn't be daunting (though I'd have said the same before Northampton).

Would go for:

Doni

Flanagan Skrtel Wilson Robinson

Spearing Coady

Maxi Shelvey Cole

N'Gog

Tempting to play Carroll to try and get some goals and boost his confidence, but think the side above would see us through easily and avoid playing the guys who'll be up against Bolton on Saturday.

Yeah, I'd like to see him feature again. Never felt like he had a fair shot.

Also, Childish Gambino/Donald Glover fan? Nice.

Yeah, not so much Childish Gambino as Community/Derrick Comedy!

Just think we need to start giving Wilson games - yes, Soto is ahead in the pecking order but it's obvious it's his last year at the club. Might as well try blooding the player who is tipped to have a big future.

Anfield Ed · « **Reply #170 on:** August 21, 2011, 05:34:09 pm »

My team would be:-

Doni

Flanagan
Skrtel
Wisdom
Robinson

Henderson
Coady
Spearing
Sterling

Carroll
Suarez

MBL? · « **Reply #171 on:** August 21, 2011, 05:39:49 pm »

Imo its more of a risk playing Cole than it is playing Sterling.

gray19lfc · « **Reply #172 on:** August 21, 2011, 05:46:26 pm »

Interesting to see what the kit situation is on Wednesday night. Exeter play in red and white shirts so we'll have to wear black but their shorts and socks are black so could we see a kit mash-up à la...

kidnesiac · « **Reply #175 on:** August 21, 2011, 06:02:54 pm »

i would be interested in seeing Henderson play in the center for 20-30 min to see if he has a more attacking onus when in the middle. he's been pretty tidy and composed on the right, but i haven't seen him fashion or lead to a chance yet.

owens_2k · « **Reply #176 on:** August 21, 2011, 06:03:17 pm »

Don't really see the point in playing Cole, Henderson has been playing safe and feeling his way into the team. Playing him against a team like this and hopefully he puts in a more assured performance will go a long way in helping him settle.

If Henderson is going to be a regular he will need to be rested mate, however I'm thinking we should make Cole sweat for his wages once in a while

downtown · « **Reply #178 on:** August 21, 2011, 06:19:30 pm »

Can't believe people are putting up over weakend line ups with likes of Cole, Ngog, or Poulsen starting.

We need to think about the future and the fact that we have won fuck all for 5 years....we need to go for Domestic cups this year not being in Europe and play players who HAVE a future with our team....

-------------------------------Doni------------------------------
Flanno-----------Skrtel------------Wilson---------Robinson

I'd be extremely happy with that lineup, with Sterling coming on for 20 mins or so. Carroll needs goals to build up his confidence, and this is the perfect opportunity for it. Also, I'd like to see Shelvey get at least 30 mins. Most of all though, we need a comfortable win, to keep our confidence high going into next weekend.

MiddleMan · « **Reply #180 on:** August 21, 2011, 06:31:54 pm »

shouldn't have carroll anywhere near this line up. it wont give him any sort of confidence when the team full of hoofers will do just that. it would just make it hard to score goals. and cause frustration for andy.

jimmyjr86 · « **Reply #181 on:** August 21, 2011, 06:34:30 pm »

I expect Doni, Flanno, Robbo, Skrtel, Spearing, Maxi and Shelvey to start this one, essentially the players who're in the first team squad but mainly been back-up so far.

As long as we have a mixture of first team players in there also. People like Poulsen/Cole etc shouldn't be played IMO. Stick a few more youngsters on the bench please.

Rest Carra, Kelly, Enrique, Adam, Downing, Carroll and Suarez.

Lucas and Kuyt don't need sleep never mind a rest.

Don't agree with that.

Carroll needs goals and more importantly he needs match fitness, its so easy to forget that he has only played eight games for us.

Samvice · « **Reply #184 on:** August 21, 2011, 06:43:43 pm »

Skrtel and Meireles should play for fitness, Carroll and Flanagan for confidence and Henderson to practise CM. Suarez and Agger must rest. Sterling late sub if all ok.

Doni
Flanagan Soto Skrtel Robinson
Shelvey Spearing
Meireles Henderson Maxi
Carroll

Subs: Reina, Kelly, Carra, Lucas, Downing, Sterling, Kuyt

It's Cole your talking about, surly that would be huff and puff for his wages as he doesn't see to work hard enough to work up a sweat.

ElNino08 · « **Reply #186 on:** August 21, 2011, 07:17:14 pm »

I think Skrtel,Wilson,Aurelio,Cole,Maxi,Spearing,Ngog and maybe a few more have to play in this game for match fitness/game time reasons.

Cruiser · « **Reply #187 on:** August 21, 2011, 07:20:02 pm »

Would like to see Meireles get 60mins or so playing time to get up to fitness so he can be ready to start against Bolton.

s_andrews89 · « **Reply #188 on:** August 21, 2011, 07:24:17 pm »

After the absolute farce that was Northampton I'm loathed to throw in as many kids as a lot are. I'd go with:

Doni
Kelly Carra Wilson Enrique
Spearing
Raul Shelvey
Henderson Downing
Kuyt

Keep the experience. Have Flanno, Robinson, Coady and Sterling on the bench. Would rather get the game won then stick the kids on with half hour to go than need to bring on the big guns if it goes pair shaped.

Pretty much how i feel about it, only difference is I'd start Merieles instead of Coady, get a few goals up and then give Coady and maybe Sterling and Wisdom a run out .

shelovesyou · « **Reply #190 on:** August 21, 2011, 08:10:16 pm »

Think we need experience in defence for this as Exeter will fancy their chances I reckon.

Be nice to see Sterling start and perhaps Morgan up front with Kuyt.

shafticus · « **Reply #195 on:** August 21, 2011, 08:46:40 pm »

Nothing like the joy of trying to predict an early round league cup team. I'd go with-

Doni
Flannagan Kyrgiakos Carra Robinson
Shelvey Spearing Meireles
Kuyt NGog Maxi

Subs-Jones Skrtel Kelly Henderson Downing Sterling Carroll

We might see NGog (and Soto if we get a new CB?) sold by Wednesday though, so between that and Skrtel's fitness, who knows.

lfcmaster · « **Reply #196 on:** August 21, 2011, 08:49:49 pm »

rather do crap in the cup and concentrate on league and getting into top 4, Only players who need match fitness should play from the 1st team contenders. Last thing we need is injuries or tiredness for critical players. We should be able to beat them with fringe players which we have decent qualityof now. Doing well on both is best scenario but rather save best players for League and rather FA cup.

sat · « **Reply #198 on:** August 21, 2011, 09:04:17 pm »

Doni, Maxi, Meireles, Cole, Flanno,Ngog are all certs IMO. I think Henderson needs a rest. Looking forward to it, lets hope we can win some silverware this season, havenet been to Wembley for ages now apart from a couple of concerts ;-)

Gerrard-2-Torres · « **Reply #199 on:** August 21, 2011, 09:10:14 pm »

KK MUST start Rahim Sterling for this one.

Doni

Flanagan The Greek Skrtel Robinson

Spearing Shelvey

Maxi/Morgan Meireles Sterling

Carroll
