So Rambo to the wing, Khedira in?

Rambo to the wing, nobody in :coffee:

by Kick Fri Nov 28, 2014 6:06 am

Alright, I'll let Jose know, he'll be over the moon about signing Khedira.

by Shed Fri Nov 28, 2014 6:18 am

What part of nobody don't you understand? Clubber

by Kick Fri Nov 28, 2014 6:22 am

All of it.

by Shed Fri Nov 28, 2014 6:28 am

I'd love to know what you think we need Salah for so badly anyway.

by Kick Fri Nov 28, 2014 6:32 am

Depth.

by Kick Fri Nov 28, 2014 6:34 am

who else is going to score against Arsenal? Oh wait, Schurrle, Hazard and Oscar....

Ramires on the wing. Mikel in midfield. #sorted :coffee:

When would the change need to be anyway? In FA Cup games and late-stage COC matches. That's it.

by Kick Fri Nov 28, 2014 7:08 am

If we have an injury we'll need depth.

by Shed Fri Nov 28, 2014 7:09 am

Schurrle?

by Kick Fri Nov 28, 2014 7:10 am

For 3 games a week?

by Shed Fri Nov 28, 2014 7:23 am

José would sooner play Rambo on the wing for a run of games in the event of an injury than Salah. If you think otherwise you're mad.

by Kick Fri Nov 28, 2014 7:26 am

I was meaning at least as a sub but then our CM spot is weakened. I don't think Salah will leave without replacement because of that.

by Shed Fri Nov 28, 2014 7:42 am

I'm asking you to look at it off the paper and in a practical situation. If, say, Willian were to get injured and was out for 3 weeks, and we had, let's say, Everton at home in the League, PSG in the CL, Stoke at home in the League, then PSG again in the CL, and Schurrle will play in 2 of those, whom is José going to trust in the other 2? Useless, ineffective Salah, or Ramires on the wing which he's shown an immense penchant for in the past?

by Kick Fri Nov 28, 2014 7:50 am

And what of the rest of the team. Hazard and Oscar have to play all games for 90 minutes? All Salah is there is to give some of our lads a rest, when they need it. As a sub in those games, not a starter.

We also have Ake in midfield, he should get more playing time. He has been good on every occasion.

Fair point. I doubt Jose will trust him though.
