Yeh i like that side, you can change Cahill and Rodders when you feel like aswell, if it doesnt work, you have the option of 4-4-2 and throwing Vic up there
 
That's how I'd go, although I'm not sure about Coleman or Anichebe. I'm all for attacking football, but you've got to be disciplined aswell, and I'm not sure Victor would track Malouda and Cole. He's unfit and it's not something he does naturally anyway. Although saying that, I think he'd cause Cole more problems than Coleman, I remember on his first start for us, he kept on drifting out to that right handside and annoying Cole, taking high balls down on his chest and dominating him aerially. It's about getting the right balance really.

Other than that, I like the team, Rodwell deserves a run now, and you've got the option of using him alongside Fellaini or further forward. He's more direct than our other midfielders, so he'd bring a bit of variation to the side. Looking forward to seeing what him, Fellaini and Cahill can do against Chelsea's midfield three, especially with Lampard out.

Either that or Pienaar in the middle, which wouldn't be a bad thing, seeing as he's the most likely player to play someone through, and always takes the ball under pressure. Beckford would really benefit from Pienaar's presence in a more central position, but can you break up the Baines-Pienaar combo? I'm not so sure.

Yeah looks good....For the moment...I like Coleman on the bench..He should of come on against WBA..His pace can frighten tiring defences about 70 min mark.....But this formation is never gonna happen under Moyes...I really don't know what is problem with attacking formations is...

He seems to go attacking when we are losing...It's ridiculous...fkn start attacking and reap the rewards...

Quick thing abuot Coleman. Is he really that fast? Phil Bardsley had him in his pocket the other week and he's not exactly lightning. I'd say his directness is his key asset rather than his pace.

Oh aye. I forgot about Rodwell. If Heitinga has to play centreback, then I'd expect Fellaini holding and Rodwell slightly more advanced. We might accidentally stumble on something. It's got to offer more than Heitinga and Arteta have done in there recently.

It wouldn't be beyond the realms of possibility for Rodwell to be utilised down the right hand side as further insurance against Malouda and Cole.

I'd go with that too

He is very direct, like Forest Gump for example.......he just wants to keep on running!! I don't think he's Lennon quick...no way

He probably looks quicker than he is, as let's face it.....he's the quickest we have by a mile!

I think this line up looks great. Adventerous but I'd trust Jags, Fellaini and Distin to keep it tight at the back.

We've just got to start having a go at teams. Look at Blackpool, everyones tip to go down but they just have a go at teams and keep getting the results. Being cautious isn't paying off for us this season. I am still in support of Moyes (just) but I wish he would try something like this!

I think the answer's obvious then...


MOYES OUT! RFUS IN! b)
