I agree about the possible lack of width, I think you could have easily have that as a 4-2-3-1 with Lucas and Adam being the 2 in midfield and Gerrard, Henderson and Suarez as the 3 attacking midfield players.

You could adapt that formation to give width down one side by having Henderson play wide and Gerrard and Suarez swapping over the left and central role.

Would Henderson be good that far forward though? I admit I don't know a huge amount about him but I thought his short passing and engine were his strengths? Everything I read about him reminds me a bit of Lucas.

In that formation, I'd even maybe have Gerrard where Henderson is and Downing left for at least a bit of width. But I still think we could do much, much better with the players we have and IMO Kuyt is still better than Carroll, Adam and Henderson, so to have him on the bench behind them would be a weakened team IMO.

I'm not sure that if you have Suarez high up on one side that you need the widest midfielder on the other side to be so advanced. Especially as we will have Johnson providing width on the right anyway.

He was originally in the Sunderland team as a winger I believe, although he can do a good job in the centre (as he did for Sunderland last year). To be honest I haven't see that much of him as a winger so I don't know how well he would do in that role. Given our strength in centre midfield I would expect that he will play on the right, although I could be wrong.

I would think he is more likely to compete with Kuyt on the right imo.

Sorry, I can't see the formation anymore as I closed the page on my phone, so I don't know what you mean.

What's Suarez role in this formation, I thought he was playing behind Carroll? And that's another point, there's surely much better formations to suit Carroll too.

Kuyt isn't half as effective when playing deeper in the likes of a 442, so I could maybe see him slotting in then. Any further of the pitch, then I'd be surprised if it wasn't Kuyt.

It's more like 5 from:

Doni
Skrtel
Kuyt
Spearing
Aquilani
Meireles
Maxi

oh yeah and Kelly

Why 5?

Il be honest and out it out there... if we hadn't had paid so much for carrol, I think he would be the guy to make way in this team! with suarez playing up front with gerrard henderson/adam and lucas behind!
That said I think Suarez could do a great job on the left or right of a front free either side of Caroll! I think we will be hit with a few more headaches after more signings start to happen!

What about Flanno?!!!

He was pictured behind Carroll 'drifting left'. But you can imagine that being close to the way Overmars played at times for Arsenal or Villa plays when combined with Torres for Spain. Both of which gave/give width without sacrificing central threat.

I suppose it would be similar to Spain Euro's line-up, but I just don't think it suits our team, well not with the players selected there.

**** I honestly only though you could only have 5 subs
