Team vs Liverpool (Week 4)
Team:

------------------ Kuszczak ------------------
----------------------------------------------

Subs:

Fabio
Giggs
Carrick
Berbatov
Wellbeck
Hernandez

Tactics:

General:
Taking the game to Liverpool at first as try to settle their crowd down.
Closing down their wingers and try and make them play in the middle so its more congestion for them.
Try to keep it simple and make sure that both Mascherano and Jones are not too offensive when we have possession and be prepared for swift counter-attacks.
Iniesta to have license to roam and pass to Rooney at every opportunity to attack the Liverpool defence.

Defence:
Vidic and Rio to organise the defence and midfield and can call on Mascherano and Jones to help out when needed. The full backs will only go forward when deep in opposition territory.
Both Young and Nani will be helping their fullbacks, especially Suarez but Iniesta to stay further up for counter-attack and keeping posession.

Midfield:
Jones and Mascherano will be breaking up play and not giving Gerrard space to drive balls through. Nani and Young should constantly attack both Johnson and Aurellio at every opportunity and Iniesta to provide assistance when needed.
Pressing the midfield collectively and push the defence to hurry the defence and try and force them to play long.

Attack:
Rooney to stay on the shoulder of last man but can play anywhere on the top to make the defence moving. Iniesta and Nani to move further up and and assist Rooney.

Subs:

Winning:
Carrick > Jones - 80 mins - Keep the ball and shift to to the attackers
Fabio > Young - 70 mins - Can double up with Evra if need be and not so much attacking but helping the left side of defence and midfield.


Losing:
Jones> Berbatov - 65 mins - 4-1-3-2. Mascherano to stay as DM whilst Hernandez plays up top and Rooney stays between their defence and attack.
Giggs>Hernandez - 70mins - More direct and running at defenders

Cech + Luiz + Merieles/Ramires + Drogba
=
De Gea + Vidic + Fletcher + Hernandez

Obviously interested in alot of your players mate, selling any for cash?

Cleverley, Jones, Smalling, Welbeck all interest me.

Cech + Luiz + Merieles + Drogba
=
De Gea + Vidic + Fletcher + Hernandez

I could add Ivanovic and Rafael but that's about it really, I'd say you were improving in 3 places with the only gain for me at CB

Actually considering it I'll offer this:

Cech + Luiz + Ivanovic + Drogba
=
De Gea + Vidic + Rafael + Hernandez

No worries, what would you say to this:

Ivanovic + Sturridge
=
Nani?

Oh and how much for Fletcher?

I could maybe offer 13 Million for him?

And no problem

Yeah 15 Million is a deal, I'll confirm

Interested in Hernandez mate and also Berbatov, Valencia and Anderson.

Bit steep?

Vidic = Yaya/Busquets

A strong CM is exactly what Utd need.

What for Rafael mate?

Benzema + Distin + Pedro + Fellaini + Rodwell
for
Hernández + Jones + Nani + Cleverley + Anderson

When are we going to post teams & tactics mate?

Benzema + Distin + Pedro + Fellaini + Rodwell
for
Hernández + Jones + Nani + Cleverley + Anderson.
------------------------------------
Not wanting to lose Jones and Cleverly for Felliani and Distin who arent rated on these leagues mate


Thought you may just be interested in losing them to gain twice in your first team and also Rodwell as a BQ for Anderson. How about if I added in Heitinga + Baines for the da Silvas?

No one said anything about Smalling...

Pedro > Nani mate too...

Can change Distin to Juan for Jones?

PSG have made a £14m offer for Dimitar Berbatov.

The transfer window closes Monday at 5pm.

Drogba + Ramires
=
Nani + Cleverley

-------------- Mascherano ----------------- Ramires ----------------
- Valencia -------------------------------------------------- Young -
--------------------------------- Rooney ---------------------------
--------------------------------- Drogba ---------------------------

Sorry for the delay. I'm going to post my tactics before 6, let me know if you can do that. If you are unable to, I'll just post mine first.

Ok mate make sure you leave a team

Benzema + Fellaini + Pedro + Kaka + Juan
for
Welbeck + Carrick + Nani + Iniesta + Jones?

Carrick = Fellaini
Welbeck < Benzema
Nani < Pedro
Iniesta > Kaka
Jones = Juan

Anytime tommorrow is fine for me prefferably around 2ish
