2 Points Behind

re Zenden:

After such a long lay off due to injury, Rafa should've spared Bolo the central midfield role. Maybe he sees something that we don't. The lad did very well for Boro in his role behind the front two but we're talking Boro not Barca.

As for god, he's just testing our faith before unleashing flood of goals.

It'll be Kuyt and Bellamy up front I think which only leaves a place on the bench for one striker.I hope I'm wrong but i think Robbie might watch more games from the stands than then bench this season.We have to go with Alonso in the middle,Rafa never drops Momo(much like Ged with Heskey) so that means Stevie on the wing.

think you're right with this. (shame heskey is gone )

Good man.

Keep the faith!

PS I reckon Kuyt & Bellers will be our first choice in a split srtiker role playing 4411 - with Fowler and/or Crouch as impact players.

15 goals each from the starters and 10 each from the subs. Add 20 more from midfield and 10 from the back four gives us 13 more than last season.

It'll work a treat.
