Well, Ronnie is injured so what formation does lux pick now?

[Raulwillbeback]

Isnt it stupid that ronnie's injury happens at the same robinho starts his training program, i wonder if lux will play him now, eventhough he said robinho would stay on the bench till he got stronger. Well what formation do u think lux will play for the next month?

Mine would be

---------------------Raul-------Baptista--------------------
--------------------------Zidane---------------------------
---------------Guti--------------------Beckham------------
--------------------------Garcia---------------------------
-----------Carlos-------Ramos---Helguera----Diogo---------

Well for the rosenborg game, ramos is suspended so i wonder if they will give woodgate a chance to redeem himself. i put baptista upfront, because he is a proven goalscorer, unlike robinho, plus he would benefit from beckham's crosses, and it would leave raul less isolated. Robinho likes to drift, so that means most of the time raul is well marked, but if baptista plays upfront, then it will give raul more freedom, and it could cause the midfielders to get more time on the ball, as the defense will be too busy with the power of baptista.

[r0naldo4life]

perfect, exactly what i would use :D
really nice formation.. now let's see what baptista is made of :P

[Elia.A.]

guys guys Baptista is a midfielder

[RealMadrilismo]

how about putting Robinho in?

[SoccerFury]

Lux has said Robinho will start against Rosenborg!

[Raulwillbeback]

well zidane might not play. He said he is wants to be rested as he aint young, so replace robinho for zidane. I really dont want robinho upfront, u wouldnt either if u seen his finishing. He is better on the left as then he can beat players and set his team mates.

[SoccerFury]

Robinho is good at finishing, he just didn't show it in Spain yet.

[Okavango]

It'll be these players in the starting 11. Raul, Robinho, Baptista, Zidane, Beckham, Pablo, Diogo, Carlos, Woody, Helguera, and Casillas. Guti should get the start, but he's proven he's better as our super-sub.

[Raulwillbeback]

Robinho is good at finishing, he just didn't show it in Spain yet.

Well how do you explain his game for brazil, he missed 2 one on ones, and an open goal. This was in brazil so he has no excuse. Hope he really improves or he is gonna be another denilson.

[raulmadrid]

guys guys Baptista is a midfielder
ermmm... not


he plays both

[Raulwillbeback]

Yea he can play as a forward. He has scored 50 goals in the last seasons, so by facts he can finish well enough to fill ronnie shoes. He played as a forward last year, plus he likes it better playing upfront.

[Raulwillbeback]

Oh yea, well if the training session is anything to go by, the real starting XI will be Casillas, Diogo, Woodgate, Helguera, Roberto Carlos, Beckham, Pablo García, Zidane, Robinho, Baptista y Raúl.

Raul will make his 100th Champion League appearance, and maybe this is the night Robinho or Baptista opens their european account for Real Madrid, Or maybe even woddgate, he has shown he can finish, hopefully he will do it in the right end this time. :D Lets smoke Rosenborg tonight :smoking:

[r0naldo4life]

let's hope so :D

[SoccerFury]

He's passing through a bad moment... ;)

[Elia.A.]

ermmm... not


he plays both

in Brazil NT he plays mid. at Sevilla he was playin' mid, and nowadays, he only played as a mid.

[Raulwillbeback]

What are you talking about? he played as a forward for sevilla, he only plays as a midfielder for brazil as no one can replace their forwards. If you watched him play at sevilla, you would know he was a forward last year.

well if you saw the game against Rosenborg yesterday when Robinho was amazing without Ronaldo then Robinho deservs a spot and also Woodgate scored and was solid defensively much more than Ramos.

Here is mine in:

---------------------Raul-------Robinho--------------------
-----------------------------------------------------
---------------Guti------Zidane----------Beckham------------
-------------------------Garcia---------------------------
----R.Carlos-------Woodgate---Helguera----Diogo---------
------------------------Casillas---------------------------

Gravesen sub for Zidane
Baptista sub for Guti
Soldado sub Raul
Ramos sub Woodgate


Then when Ronaldo and Salgado come back it's a different formation...

[Elia.A.]

---------------------Raul-------Robinho--------------------
-------------------------Zidane---------------------
---------------Guti----------------Beckham------------
-------------------------Garcia---------------------------
----R.Carlos-------Woodgate---Helguera----Diogo---------
------------------------Casillas---------------------------


IMO Zidane should attack more

[r0naldo4life]

baptista is injured for longer than ronaldo :D aint we lucky?

[Lance Knight]

actually i am a bit happy that baptista is injured, cause i think he suck
