King, Nelsen, Gallas

After reading reports that Gallas is fit for a return to the team on Sunday that leaves us with a choice from our three veteran centre-backs.

Personally i'd go for King and Gallas. Yes I know King made some shocking errors against Norwich but in the big games like this his influence and experience could prove crucial.

Gallas because every time he plays i'm expecting him to show his age but he never seems to, he still has pace at his disposal too.

If only we had kept hold of Caulker

Dawson, you're not top 4 but I miss you

I agree with Chronic.
But I must say I did not see Sandro's last game.
If he was as bad and lacking in match fitness as Kimchi says, well, I'd leave it to Arry.

kimchi - I think anyone that saw the last game would agree Sandro had a bad game, but "utterly utterly dreadful" is going a bit far in my opinion. Yes he didn't look sharp, but he recovered the ball when he lost it and saved Ledley on at least one occasion. He's a deep-lying CDM, not a conventional CM from what I can see and the footage i've seen of him at Inter.

For similar resons I don't think Parker and him should play together - they're both in the team to do the same job - break up play and pass to Modric. I'd like to see Sandro or Parker sitting behind Modric and Livermore in the middle. Even Kranjcar, as unlikely as that is.

My team for Sunday would be:

Walker (needs a rest) - Gallas - King - Benny

--------------- Parker/Sandro

Lennon - Livermore/Kranjcar - Modric - Bale

------------------ VDV

------------------ Ade

One beer too many = one player too many!

Drop Livermore/Kranjcar and stick VDV in there

big fan of the beast...but he's a cert at some stage to crunch mata....i fear him lasting on a big open pitch like wembley...

i'd play with the full backs pinched in more....i know that negates them going forward...but i fear them getting caught upfield.....

i think kaboul is a must and also that sandro has been outstanding for out older cb making some of the tackles he has been making and slowing down a lot of the play when the other team is on the offense. his passing can improve but i think that will come soon with him considering he is only 22
