I think they will happily but 5 across midfiled and play for a draw.
Doubt it. I don't recall us ever playing for a draw under Redknapp. I can see us perhaps playing Parker and Sandro though in central midfield to try and take control - especially if Lennons out. Something like this:
------------Friedel-------------
Walker Kaboul King Ekotto
-----Parker------Sandro-----
Van der Vaart Modric Bale
---------Adebayor------------
