Team for Blackburn

Changes for Blackburn? I should think so.

Hart
Richards, VK, Lescott, Clichy
NDJ, Zabba
Silva, Nasri, Aguero
Balotelli

Yep Dawg agree with that but it won't happen. He won't drop Yaya & Barry

Dzeko definitely needs to be dropped after throwing a paddy. Kolo was poor last night I thought. Why oh why would you start a player who has hardly played in 6 months against a top quality attack like Bayern ?

Because Kolo has chumps league experience. If it had come off, we'd have said what a master stroke.

It wasn't Kolo's fault we conceded. VK was pretty poor too and he got away with another dodgy challenge.

Micah Vinny Lescott Clichy

Zaba DeJong

Silva Milner Nasri

Aguero

Balotelli

Time to drop Yaya and Barry, though to be fair Barry has done OK so far this season apart from last night against a young, quick MF.

Mancini said last night that Dzeko will keep him company on the bench, so can't see him starting after his petulence. Would like to see a couple of the kids get a chance on the subs bench.

Team for me...

Hart
Micah Vinny Lescott/Savic Clichy
DeJong
Johnson Silva Milner Kolarov
Aguero/(zabba to give him a run after we have scored a few)
Balotelli

Sub Zabba, Savic only. Bring Savic for Lescott and bring Zabba in for either Micah/Johnson/Aguro... depending on how we do...

Hart
Richards, VK, Lescott, Clichy

NDJ, Yaya

Silva, Nasri, Balotelli
Aguero

I'd play some fresher legs from the start, myself. I'd be inclined to play Zabs, Savic and Balotelli instead of Yaya, Aguero and Vinny.

Yes, I did say Vinny! He's been looking sloppy of late, let's give him a rest.

Hart

Richards / Savic / Lescott / Clichy

NDJ / Zabs

Silva / Milner / Kolarov

Balotelli

If we're lacking bite, switch Milner for Aguero.

Noooo!!!!! We can't drop Aguero

He might be looking a bit jaded but he'll rip Blackburn's defence apart

We have to bounce back from all the shit for the past few days



SMB & Aguero up front for me with Dzeko on the bench & brought on in the 2nd half is Mario is shit

TMG, did you miss the Swansea game or something? Aguero came on with half an hour to go, scored twice and set up a third. Do we really need to run the poor sod into the ground? I think we do the same again - let him on with 30 mins to go and let him dance round the tired Blackburn defence in murderous fashion. Plus, we can use the resultant footage to show Cuntos how a professional handles being on the bench. Although we could've used the Birmingham game - Kun came off the bench to warm up with a big grin on his face, despite not even getting on the pitch.

Now we're a striker down, we need Balo more than ever and this is the perfect game to do it in. I reckon Balo'll make mincemeat of their defence too.

God help us we if we are now relying on Balotelli !

Surely Aguero is not that knackered that he can't play against BBurn.

After Saturdays match our next game isn't til 15th Oct so he can have a bit of a break then (I don't know if Argentina have a game or not)

I'd be interested to see how Balotelli links up with Aguero to be honest, one combination we haven't seen yet, and he does deserve a chance after supposedly performing well in training and his cameo against Everton.

Yaya has surely got to be dropped, simply for the fact that three games in what, ten days, will probably be the death of the lad. Think Barry's been playing well so far this season, but again, don't think he has the fitness to play again this week.

Give Milner a game, hopefully De Jong will be fit, and lets see some rotation of that squad we've got. If we do keep a player like Aguero, Silva or Nasri on the bench for Blackburn then at least we'll have a plan b, or give them something to think about in the last half hour.

Well, it's either Balo or Nimely, we don't have anyone else now. So we may as well show Balo some love and get him playing a bit more, because if we lose Aguero or Dzeko, he's all we've got.

Mario as a reward for last week, NDJ and Milner because they will be fresher. Mario deserves a decent pitch time, if he starts fucking around, Dzeko can be a like for like.

Lets rip Rovers a new one this weekend, god knows the fans deserve some reward after tuesday!
