Bit of a surprise but I've long wondered why Taraabt has never been tried up front.His manner on the field is a bit like Berbatov who just hung about near the oppositions box because he didn't like running around.....but he did score goals. |  |

Chelsea away is the game that springs to mind for me - he was excellent upfront.
Maybe with a new manager we might actually get some contributions from Adel, Diakite, Zarate, SWP and Matt Phillips. |  | | |

Diakite isn't even in the 25 man squad.
I really don't understand club decisions sometimes |  |

Didnt he play up front when we beat Chelsea away. I could be wrong. |  |

Mad dog Diakite or Little SWP - that must have been a tough choice for them. |  | | |

think we need some creativity in the team. Be nice to see a fit adel (?) providing it. even if it is while playing up front. |  | | |

Really? I think that's a shame, a new manager and coach might have been able to get something out of him.
Also we've sold Mutch and not replaced him, so surely we had a spot? | | | |

According to the club website Diakite's return is subject to international clearance - maybe it hasn't come through?

True. They couldnt classify what SWP really is on a family website. |  | | |

Don't upset the apple cart, Adel's a striker now! |  | | |

Regardless of Adel's position, let's discuss whether this is a good squad or not.
If it's a good-enough-to-stay-up squad is perhaps the most important thing.
As we knew:
- No backups for either RB or LB.
- No out-and-out number 9 who could deliver the goods like Charlie does. The only other "natural born striker" is Bobby Zamora and in my opinion, he's spent and I hope we don't have to see him (even if he does try and is good at hold up play).
- Not very good options at wide midfielder. Those who can naturally run up and down the field (and be effective in breaking up play and joining the attack).
- At CB, it's Caulker and then a combination of two ageing good players (Dunne and Rio) and/or Onuoha/Hill. It's a situation that doesn't give me a lot of confidence, to say the least.
On the bright side, there's talent up front.
I'd feel confident if any combination involving these four players (or at least 3 of them) is used at every opportunity:
Adel
Charlie
Zarate
Vargas
In that order.
But we have to go for it away from home. Sitting deep and waiting for the inevitable, will be playing exactly the kind of game we shouldn't be playing because it'll expose our biggest flaws.
PS: SWP!!! FFS! He's my worst nightmare! Impossible to flog!
I have to thank Neil, by the way. Because he made it possible to me to sell SWP for 2M when I took over QPR playing FM14! West Brom bought it. And they got relegated. If only... |  | | |
