Fer looked great with Tettey and Howson

without them it looks like he's trying to do too much. Especially when we play 4-4-2 and he and BJ get outnumbered in midfield, meaning he never has any space and gets caught in possession a lot.

      - Fer looked great with Tettey and Howson (NCFC) - mr carra, Jan 17, 15:04:28
      - Fair, but throwing Tettey into a must-win game after injury has its risks. (NCFC) - trafford_canary, Jan 17, 15:02:23
  - That would do for me (n/m) (NCFC) - admckechnie, Jan 17, 14:43:31
- 4-4-1-1 (NCFC) - lurd, Jan 17, 14:40:46
- if elemander is in the starting lineup that will put me in a negative mood from the get go (n/m) (NCFC) - Pit, Jan 17, 14:32:46

      - Elmander is sh*t. No way in the world he should start. (n/m) (NCFC) - Jim, Jan 17, 14:42:24
        
        He clearly isn't.. (NCFC) - loz, Jan 17, 14:47:55

- I'd go... (NCFC) - trafford_canary, Jan 17, 14:30:52
  - Can't imagine Hoots ever playing 3 at the back (NCFC) - Darren Eadie, Jan 17, 14:32:04
  - 3 at back???? Why? (n/m) (NCFC) - admckechnie, Jan 17, 14:32:03
    - To be contrary! (NCFC) - trafford_canary, Jan 17, 14:40:48
  - But I'm certain it will be as Mr Carra says below. And maybe Garrido not Guti. (n/m) (NCFC) - trafford_canary, Jan 17, 14:31:49
- They play 3-5-2/5-3-2 with wingbacks dont they? (NCFC) - MIKEWALKER, Jan 17, 14:29:18
  - They do it's a system which could suit us... (NCFC) - loz, Jan 17, 14:31:49
    - Its quite a tricky one to play against, I remember Wigan using it in Lamberts last year (NCFC) - MIKEWALKER, Jan 17, 14:35:22
      - Lambo loves it. He had Villa playing it against Arsenal. (NCFC) - trafford_canary, Jan 17, 14:38:34
        
        are you sure it wasn't just injury? (NCFC) - mr carra, Jan 17, 14:39:58
        
        Yeah it was possibly a knee thing but I think the experiment had been a disaster. (NCFC) - trafford_canary, Jan 17, 14:42:02
- I expect that, but with Snoddy instead of Redmond (NCFC) - mr carra, Jan 17, 14:26:44
  - I don't think we've ever relied on anyone for set pieces as much as Snodgrass (NCFC) - Darren Eadie, Jan 17, 14:31:04
