One is midfield is a novel idea
41212 really could take the game by force. Rather than trying to 'dictate' the game like Barcelona do we could bypass the area and just focus in the attacking third.... :ph43r:

Because Maxi isn't a central midfielder and a pairing of him and Adam could be torn through like a wet tissue
It surprises me that you would actually need this to be explained to you.

ever the hostile poster cj. adam can cover the DM position fine. maxi is on the tip of the diamond so used moreso for pass and move rather than tackling. this shouldnt be a problem against the lesser teams - particularly at home. downing and bellamy are more than capable of keeping the MF tight if needed.

Hostile! Thats word for the day.
If your chatting shit, you'll get told so. And you're chatting shit. Adam and Maxi together in the centre midfield would be torn through by any half-decent team.

Wibble wobble, one minute he's in the centre midfield, the next he's an attacking midfielder. Make your mind up for goodness sake (sorry, was that too hostile for you).
Its very simple.
If Maxi is playing centre midfield with Adam, we would be torn apart. Maxi is not, never has been, nor never will be a centre midfielder and Adam is not an effective DM
If Maxi is playing on the tip of the diamond, Adam will be left as our sole DM and we would be torn apart
Either way, a combination of Maxi and Adam would not work

wibble wobble lol :lol: i like that.
fair points. i disagree. i think maxi can play tip of a diamond. bellamy and downing are industrious enough to keep MF tight.
but in the spirit of good debate, i will take on your points and also suggest the line up below:
------------------reina--------------- johnson---skrtel---agger---jose -----------------adam--------------- kuyt-------------------------downing ---------------bellamy-------------- ----suarez--------------carroll-----

One is midfield is a novel idea 41212 really could take the game by force. Rather than trying to 'dictate' the game like Barcelona do we could bypass the area and just focus in the attacking third.... :ph43r:
its just 442
really? Maxi in centre so with adam and bellamy as an orthodox right sided player?
yeah why not
Because Maxi isn't a central midfielder and a pairing of him and Adam could be torn through like a wet tissue It surprises me that you would actually need this to be explained to you.
ever the hostile poster cj. adam can cover the DM position fine. maxi is on the tip of the diamond so used moreso for pass and move rather than tackling. this shouldnt be a problem against the lesser teams - particularly at home. downing and bellamy are more than capable of keeping the MF tight if needed.
Hostile! Thats word for the day. If your chatting shit, you'll get told so. And you're chatting shit. Adam and Maxi together in the centre midfield would be torn through by any half-decent team.
well i can say the same about your opinion...chatting....but i wont. maxi can play tip of the diamond, most attacking players can. just dont ask him to defend and tackle :lol:
Wibble wobble, one minute he's in the centre midfield, the next he's an attacking midfielder. Make your mind up for goodness sake (sorry, was that too hostile for you). Its very simple. If Maxi is playing centre midfield with Adam, we would be torn apart. Maxi is not, never has been, nor never will be a centre midfielder and Adam is not an effective DM If Maxi is playing on the tip of the diamond, Adam will be left as our sole DM and we would be torn apart Either way, a combination of Maxi and Adam would not work
wibble wobble lol :lol: i like that. fair points. i disagree. i think maxi can play tip of a diamond. bellamy and downing are industrious enough to keep MF tight. but in the spirit of good debate, i will take on your points and also suggest the line up below: ------------------reina--------------- johnson---skrtel---agger---jose -----------------adam--------------- kuyt-------------------------downing ---------------bellamy-------------- ----suarez--------------carroll-----
Again though, Adam is the sole DM and I don't think he would be suited to that position. He is not as mobile as Lucas and is prone to making rash challenges and picking up pointless yellow cards.
If I were an opposing manager seeing Adam as the only DM, i'd get my own midfielders closing him down at every given opportunity.

You don't think we need to tackle against "lesser teams"?
You don't see this as being and incredibly naive lineup which would be roasted by most teams? For all the good players in there, without a midfield, we would be in big trouble.
Many people have criticised us for playing two in midfield - Lucas and Adam. Do you think playing one there is something any coach, professional, amateur or even on Football Manager would do this? Excluding 10 year olds.

I've often wondered what age he is. Can't be older than 11 - 12 at a push.

adam can tackle. bellamy/kuyt/downing can close players down. we've had far more ambitious teams than the one im suggesting.

He is a refreshing individualist who thinks outside the box. Outside the playpen, really.

Our best midfielder is out injured. Our best midfield ball-winner is out injured. Without them both our back line will have a tough time unless we put in some ball winners. That's why Spearing will have to play. He is the best midfield ball winner we have available. Adam is a fair tackler only, but we need his passing skills. (An unfair tackler a lot of the time but you get the point.) Henderson will have to play because of his mobility and he will have to track back when we lose the ball upfield. We did great last year without Big Andy in the middle, so I see Maxi and Bellamy in my crystal ball, orchestrated by the Ururguayan magician. Last year Reina bypassed the midfield a lot with long kicks that Fulham found hard to handle. Surprising, considering the size of the big boys in the Fulham defence. But it was by design, so KD spotted something last year, and we will try it a lot this year, too. And that's another reason to use speed and guile up front rather than power. Kuyt will come on after 60-65 minutes or so.
