If coleman doesnt make it, without a doubt its gonna be stones, jags, distin, baines. Personally id drop distin because he cant handle movement of certain strikers and he always has a mistake in him, and to be honest i would consider dropping baines who's looks like hes holding back

I think Baines misses Pienaar when he's not there. I noticed in the Soton game, as soon as Pienaar came on Baines looked a completely different player.

Gonna be a problem sooner or later then mate as Pienaar is nearing the end - should be replaced soon as a starter down to a squad role
 
Yeah he's getting on a bit. Who would you have on the left instead of him as 1st choice mate?

In th current squad with everyone fit, mirrales with dele on the rt mate, in a ideal world, sign tadic and play him their gives us mcgeady and pienaar then to bring on and change a game if needed, he has similar type movement to pienaar, very good and hard to get off the ball, and is 7 years younger with more pace/end product

At the moment though fully fit, pienaar probably still starts as long as baines is playing, as you mentioned earlier - they both imporve each others games more than any other combo we have their, if oviedo plays i think mirrales is the better option like though

I've not seen enough of Alcaraz but distins pace is always good to have against Suarez does Alcaraz possess the same pace ?
 
Alcaraz is so calm and composed on the ball in general but more so compared to Distin. Has he had enough games to be thrown into the derby though?
 
would be a huge relief for us if Coleman doesn't play....was dreading him up against Cissokho. Suarez usually has a field day with Distin
