Neither for 90% of games I think it should be Meireles and Gerrard.

 

Only games against the top four or five teams away from home would I play one of them and I'd say they are about as good as each other - but Lucas is more athletic.

I agree with playing Gerrard and Meireles and Cole/Kuyt ahead of them for 90% of the games, but I would play Poulson for the others.

Neither, they're both fucking shit.

 

I'm a fan of the holding player/ sitting midfielder/ defensive midfielder, and Didi was one of my favourite players, but there's no point playing one if the options are Lucas or Poulsen.

 

Far better to simply trust Gerrard and Meireles to cover when the other goes forward

 

Perhaps a 4-3-3:

 

Reina

 

Magic

Carra

Agger

Konchesky

 

Meireles

Gerrard

Kuyt

 

Jova

Torres

Cole

He doesn't take prisoners because he can't catch them. I'd fancy Ronnie Biggs to be able to outrun him now.

 

I'm not talking about pace. Neither has in that case. Poulsen is a better tackler, and he puts it up to the op more. Like when Sunderland had their peno, Poulsen wasn't backing down with one of theirs when they were standing outside the box. That's what I mean.

 

Poulsen doesn't have pace, we all know that.
