Team to play Arsenal

Sun Aug 26, 2018 10:32 pm

I think we might be in quite a bit of trouble with both NML and Hoilett out. I think we will have to score more than 1 goal to get anything out of this game due to Arsenal's attacking power but this is possible considering the state of their defense, so if i was NW I would line it up like this: Etheridge
Manga
Mozza
Bamba
Bennett
Ralls
Arter
Reid (no. 10)
Murphy
Zohore
Kadeem

I agree Reid needs to play as the main problem with our attack is no one gets close enough to Zohore so he is constantly isolated. Only change is make for you team is Camarasa for Ralls.

Also our players need to learn how to take free kicks as the delivery from them has been terrible every game this season.

If Junior and NML are unfit that’s exactly the team I would pick..although I think Ward may start instead of Ken

We need to control the middle of the park and counter attack quickly.
I would play a 4411
No wingers just pack midfield with ball winners

I would also drop bamba for this one as there quick passing will bypass him.

Etheridge

Richards
Manga
Morrison
Bennett

Arter
Gunnarsson/Damour
Ralls
Camarasa

Murphy

Ward
