Outfield Spine

Zatara · March 30, 2012

This must be the best spine in a squad we've had since we won the FA Cup....if not better ?

CB's -- Heitinga, Jagielka, Distin, Duffy -- that's very strong in depth.

When does Yobos contract expire is it this or next season ?

What is the deal with Eric Dier ??

CM's -- Fellaini, Rodwell, Gibson, Barkley -- Again, very strong in depth.

Is Lundstram the next on the conveyor belt behind Barkley ?

AM -- Cahill, Osman

I wonder if Moyes will start integrating a younger player into this position ?

CF -- Jelavic, Velios

Straq may or may not stay + Anichebe is useless....hopefully Moyes brings someone in.

The one worry I have is that aside of Baines, Gueye (if he can develop), Coleman (if he proves himself at right back) we have no-one in the wide areas after loans expire.....

As always with our squad there are some great positives year on year but also some concerns....interesting times ahead perhaps, Moyes has some work to do as always (y)

Fairly sure Yobos contract expires in the Summer so we wont be seeing him ever again.

seriously our 2012 team should absolutely destory 2009 if we played them in a hythetical match i would expect apart from lescott and peinaar that 2009 team is pretty gash compared to know i think the only players gone backwards is neville and cahill, our defense is better without yobo in it we have a midfield and wide man that can actually play some ball a good target man and baines of coarse.

Plus the bench is much stonger in 2012 plus baines and felliani are streets better now than in 2009 i know this is hypethetical and a bit fantasty football and we cant count against injuries ect but as it stands imo oue team now is better

Ah bit mate, well done. Makes it an easier read all round.

You don't breathe much, do you?

Hibbonator · March 30, 2012

No not really mate I come from a generation of illiterate texting twits, I am kind of cursed in that way.

I'm sure they would too, which is why I said "since we won the FA Cup".....not lost to Chelsea thanks to Osman and Hibbert
