    If we had a champions league game tomorrow, for example against a team like Ajax or Spartak, what would your starting line up be? (Providing everyone is fit).

    Forster
    Lustig Ambrose Van Dijk Izaguirre
    Mulgrew
    Brown........Stefan
    Biton
    Stokes Griffiths​

    Still think we need a decent creative midfielder and a clinical striker though

    I would swap Biton and Stefan if we were to do that

    Mine would be:

    Forster
    Lustig Ambrose CB/VVD Izzy
    Mulgrew/VVD Brown
    Biton Stokes Stefan
    Griffiths/new signing​

    With stokes playing further up trying to link our inevitably pinned back moves or counters

    For the massive teams like Barca, Bayern, etc.



    In more even games.

    Forster
    Lustig Ambrose VVD Izzy
    Brown Mulgrew Biton
    Johanson
    Stokes Samaras​




    If Samaras stays I think he's vital in europe.

    Against lesser sides:

    Forster

    Watt Griffiths    ​

    Assuming Sammy has left. :54:

    Stokes can not and should not be asked to lead the line alone in Europe.

    Probably, out of our current lot he's probably our best option though.

    I'd still have Samaras up front alone in Europe ahead of him. Sammy is probably away next season so its a dilemma.

    We either need to invest in a quality striker who can lead the line or start playing to Stokes' strengths and get players closer to him so he can link up effectively.

    I'd only play him in Europe if he's playing in a front two with Watt or Griffiths. We're only going to play with two up top against sides like Ajax and Spartak though - at a push.

    It's his lack of pace that is a concern for me in Europe. We need that in the final third when countering. I'd actually like to see him playing at quarter-back, like Pirlo.

    we will not play 2 up top in the group stages if we get there, will be 1 up top from the start of every game, it may be changed during the game,but it will be 1 up top to start, i dont think we have anyone who can play that role, id agree stokes is the best option we have just now, but yet again yet to see griffiths have the chance to do so

    Watt? I think he has all the qualities to play as a line forward in Europe. Excellent work rate, clinical finisher, decent in the air, lightning quick...
