Strongest XI - ericlegrisly - 09-29-2020
Given the assembled personnel and the possibility of no further signings, what's our best starting 11 now?
3-5-1-1?
SJ
Semi Ivanovic Hegazi
Furlong? Livermore Gallagher Krov Dinger
Pez
Robinson
Room for Gibbs? Sawyers? Field? Bartley?
Are we good enough?
RE: Strongest XI - boingingbaggie - 09-29-2020
I don't like Diangana at left wing back. Totally lose him as an attacking option and he isn't good enough at defending
I still think with the players we have now a back 4 is more suited but obviously Slav doesn't agree
SJ
O Shea
Ajayi
Ivanovic
Gibbs
Livermore
Krov
Gallagher
Pereira
Diangana
Robinson
RE: Strongest XI - Lurker#3 - 09-29-2020
We now have the option to switch between 5 and 4 at the back.
It will be a horses for courses approach.
343:
Johnstone
Ajayi Ivanovic OShea
Furlong Livermore Gallagher Gibbs
Pereira Robinson Diang
433:
Johnstone
O'Shea Ajayi Ivanovic Gibbs
Livermore Sawyers Gallagher
Periera Robinson Diang
RE: Strongest XI - B36baggie - 09-29-2020
Johnstone
O’Shea (preferably a new RB)
Ajayi
Ivanovic
Gibbs
Sawyers
Livermore
Gallagher
Pereira
Grady
Robinson
Button. Furlong. Hegazi. Field. Krov. Edwards. HRK
That leaves
Bond
Peltier
Townsend
Kipre
Bartley
Harper
Phillips
Grosicki
Austin
Zohore
I think five of those not in my Eighteen could go before deadline day,

For matches against better teams put in Field instead of Krov/Gallagher
RE: Strongest XI - Super_Slav - 09-29-2020
The level of disrespect for Sawyers on this board is ridiculous. I’m pretty confident if fit and available he’ll start the majority of games.
He’s Bilić No.6 and I expect to see him have greater involvement with the ball especially on Sunday as Southampton play a 4-4-2.

...........Johnstone...........
....Ajai Ivanovic O’Shea....
Furlong...................Gibbs
.....Sawyers..Livermore.....
Diangana..Robinson..Periera
Or
Johnstone
O’Shea, Ajai, Ivanovic, Gibbs
Krov or Gallagher, Sawyers, Livermore
Diangana, Robinson, Periera
RE: Strongest XI - Super_Slav - 09-29-2020
FWIW I think Bilić will alternate between 3-4-3/5-4-1, 4-3-3 and 4-2-3-1
RE: Strongest XI - BasingBaggie - 09-29-2020
Maybe I watch a different game to others but in that defensive 3 there is no way I would have O’Shea ahead of Bartley. As a right back he is way ahead of Furlong but depends on the system. Completely agree on Diangana not being defensively minded, hence why Pereira was switched to left wing in the first
Half to help combat James
