Team for Arsenal on Sunday

[Howard_lfc]

so what happens now that Momo is out?

Usual back 5.
Zenden to keep his place in the middle alongside Alonso with Stevie and Luis out wide.
Dirk and Crouch up front.

Any other options?

Anybody saying pennant should play right mid will be severely kicked up the arse !!

Pennant should play right mid

[dww]

I think the loss of Momo is immense, I have to say I'm gutted. I thought he would be our most important player against Arsenal.

I might have to relent and have Stevie in the middle, Garcia right and Zenden left. Letting Zenden tuck in to cover Stevie when necissary. I'm really not sure what is the best option, that or your suggestion for midfield.

i've got a pile that needs removing so Pennant for the right

I'd go for Agger and Carra at the back, we need a bit of pace

Finnan Riise pick them selves

I'd be tempted to put Kuyt upfront on his own with Speedy, Stevie and Garcia supporting and a CM of Zenden and Alonso

Agree about Momo.

Zenden - as we've seen in the last 2 games - is far better in the middle.

Pennant should play right mid

Sure. Pennant really should play right mid!

I would play with Reina - Finnan, Carragher, Agger, Riise - Pennant, Gerrard, Alonso, Gonzalez - Kuyt, Bellamy
Subs: Dudek, Hyypia, Zenden, Garcia, Crouch

Reckon Rafa will start with one up front.

-------------------Reina
Finnan----Carra------------Agger----Riise
--------Alonso------------Zenden
Pennant----------Gerrard----------Gonzalez
------------------Kuyt


Maybe Bellamy for Pennant, but as a conventional winger...

Pennant should be absolutely no where near the first team at the moment.

[Morph]

Surprised not many have Garcia starting, I know he's a bit hot and cold away from home, but he's one of the best attacking players we've got.

I'd probably throw him on the right, Gonzo left and Gerrard middle

[dww]

I can't believe anyone wants to have anyone other that Kut and Crouch upfront. I would also like to see Garcia in the side. Neither Gonales or Pennant have done enough of late to warrant a game against one of the top sides.

[Flake]

Pennant should be absolutely no where near the first team at the moment.

I thought he got more and more into the game last night. Not sure its a question of talent, so much as confidence. It does do my head in though, if someone wanted to pay me that sort of money a week I'd be the most confident ****er on earth.

I'd go with that midfield formation but I'd have Gonzales in at Left Midfield to have a go at Hoyte.

[Resu]

Isn`t Garcia injured

[dww]

Not according to PhysioRoom

[Snigger]

Reckon Rafa will start with one up front.

I'd go along with that, if Garcia is fit I'd play him instead of Pennant for such a big game but I do think Pennant needs a few games, he's not as bad as he's been playing this season and needs a run to build his confidence.
