Re: Pre-season Friendlies
A one-off match between an AC ALSOAM XI (gotta play the stiffs ) and Go Ahead Eaaagles will be taking place, for the inaugrial Crawley District Cup, that I literally just made up.
Still bigger than the Emirates Cup though

Is there a big sponsor for this match that will payout £50m for the participants for this legendary cup?

No, all the funds were spend convincing AC ALSOAM to lower themselves for this fixture

Re: Pre-season Friendlies
To make it interesting why don't we have a ban on the 4-2-3-1 formation for this cup?

Re: Pre-season Friendlies
Sounds good tsj.
No 4-2-3-1
How about max 3 players able to play all 3 fixtures? Forces us to experiment and use the squad depth.

Re: Pre-season Friendlies
Are we able to do that Gregers? I'd say max of 5 or something, we don't all have 25 players.
And Bull, that's the point. We can work out how others feel about different formations.

Re: Pre-season Friendlies
I think these should wait until after the Cup final/star players, as there's usually a couple of weeks break between seasons.

Fair enough. Will they be like RL tactics? Just a little to get across your point?

Re: Pre-season Friendlies
Yeah just short tactics, 5 players can play in all 3 fixtures so we have to chop and change, NO 4-2-3-1
Re: Pre-season Friendlies
After discussions with Russell, we have decided the Crawley District Cup be played over a Best of 5 Series.
Game 1 of 5 is tomorrow, the rest throughout the close season. Will get some of you to do quick votes (score and scorers) without the need for reasons if that's ok?

AC ALSOAM v Go Ahead Eaaagles - Crawley District Cup Game 1 of 5
- Spoiler:
- 4-2-3-1
Gabriel
Atsuto Uchida - Michael Essien - Lasse Sobiech - Aleksandar Kolarov
Sami Khedira - Kwadwo Asamoah
Hulk - Abel Hernandez - Bebe
Edin Dzeko
Subs: Rob Green, Jerome Boateng, Holger Badstuber, Benedikt Howedes, Massimo Ambrosini, Bastian Schweinsteiger, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, Marek Hamsik, Balasz Dzsudzsak, Carlos Tevez, Fabio Quagliarella
Today is about seeing how well we do against a tough Eagles side. I expect them to be at full strength purely to prove a point, as they haven't had the best of seasons and will be on a confidence boosting mission. We will kick them while they are down in the process. Play good possession football, keep the ball and make them chase after it. They have good players when on the ball but not so good without it, so starve them of the ball.
Subs at half time:

Re: Pre-season Friendlies
Pre-season – Go-ahead Eaaagles XI vs. AC ALSOAM - Crawley District Cup Game 1 of 5
- Spoiler:
- Asenjo
Rafael – Ruiz – Matip – Fabio
Walcott – Oscar – Gundogan – Draxler
Lukaku – Dembele
Bench: Cech, Ivanovic, Luiz, Kroos, Bender, Dempsey, Soldado
Team Instructions:
Go out there and get some match fitness. Show me what you can do. Keep it nice and tight when we’re defending. No higher than on the edge of the area. Hold firm and don’t let them push you deeper. Zonally mark, tonight with constant pressure on the man with possession.
When going forward, I want Oscar to be our primary playmaker. Look to use the pace and width, in which Walcott and Draxler will provide. Also, utilise the strength and flair of Lukaku and Dembele, to really put their defence to the test.
Tonight is mainly about showing me what you’ve got, but I still want a dedicated performance from each and every one of you. So use the youth in our team to show the newly crowned Champions what we can do.

Abate---Subotic---Agger---Alaba
-----------Bender--------------
-----Sissoko------Witsel--------
----------Sigurdsson------------
-------Cisse----Adebayor-------
Tactics:
Goalkeeper: Look to distribute through the FB's or the CB's. Command the box, make world class saves
Defence: FB's look to get forward and back. Build from the back in possession. When defending be narrow, rigid back four.
Midfield: Bender you sit and patrol the back four. Sissoko and Witsel be box to box, look to link with the FB's. Sigurdsson pull the strings, be the creative force.
Strikers: Adebayor be the target man. Cisse play on the last shoulder, look to pounce.
General: Lets play possession football from the back. Slow build up, so it allows the FB's to join in and offer width. Dominate the midfield, and lets get a nice win.

Team Talk: Different formation today lads as we try something else in the first game of the cup. Don't underestimate Gotham but we should swat them aside.
Lindegaard: Be big and prove why you should be our number one next season
Defense: The back three center backs to act as a unit and keep control of the box. Get the ball wide to the wingbacks who will then bomb down the line and whip the crosses in.
Midfield: Capoue to sit back and protect the defense. This will allow Strootman to go box to box to damage Gotham's defense. Finally Gourcuff will be the creative heart of the team.
Strikers: Eto'o and Carroll to be strong in the air and terrorize their center backs. Get on the crosses that come in.
