..for the trip to Basle. Breaking news on <a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk." target="_blank">www.bbc.co.uk.</a>
Blanc out....
- Thread starter 2Bullish
- Start date
maybe phil will be recalled and silvestre will play CH.
this is great opportunity for JOS to lead the defence.. or Brown, if he keeps his CH spot.
and for those of you Blanc slaggers, we'll see how our defence without Blanc holds up against a team that put 3 past poo shit just 2 weeks ago.

im slightly worried by this. The inexperience of Brown/OShea showed against Newcastle when Blanc went off. Particularly against the experienced Shearer who won every ball.
theyre both quality defenders no doubt, but the lack of experience as a unit & as individuals could be a factor that Basle could find a weakness in.
The problem is, when Blancs not there, the next person with the most experience is Gary Neville.

Oh, well, what a pity 
But maybe some of our most experienced players are missing as well. Our defence tower Murat Yakin might be missing and surely "Magic Ergic" will so too (he's the one who scored against Valencia).

That was devlish I think - easy to confuse the two admittedly.
From what I've seen of Basel they don't have strength in the air, which is probably good as O'Shea and Brown should be a good match on the ground.
Well I think we will miss Blanc not because he is able to give us that extra something to the team but because we seriously lack of experience.
That is why I had always been in favour of bringing an EXPERIENCED World Class defender with the PACE needed.
My fears had been confirmed, we will now have to play with two very promising youngsters at the back

Those lads will do fine.
I'm not worried about our centre backs, more worried about Barthez and Phil! <img src="graemlins/nervous.gif" border="0" alt="[Nervous]" />
well done to Mickey Silvestre, we were starting to lose that little battle till he was moved across to the middle. Another good game from the frenchman. Hurry up and get him signed up!
