- Liverpool v Swansea:
These two teams went into the game with hopes of gaining European football. It was Liverpool who made the better start as Cabaye, who had a lot of room found Adam Johnson on the edge of the area but his shot was deflected just wide by Williams for a corner. Liverpool then created more chances with Suarez having a volley saved by Howard and Hangeland powering a header against the bar. But Swansea responded well and Hoilett caught Corchia out of position and crossed, finding Adebayor but Reina tipped the shot onto the post and Schmelzer got back to clear. Javi Garcia won possession from Rodwell and found Sandro who played a long ball over the top for Suarez but his shot was dreadful and miles wide to end the first half with no goals.
Liverpool started the second half full of intent and Cabaye played a neat one two with Krasic before send a thunderous shot which Howard superbly pushed over the bar. It was a niggly game in midfield but Liverpool were working well to get through Rodwell and Ki. Sandro robbed Rodwell and chipped the ball over to Krasic who got shackled by Taylor. The free kick was taken by Johnson who found Garcia who sent a header wide. Swansea hit on the break quickly after a good tackle from Ki. Hernandez kept the ball well and found Dyer who waited before sending a low ball across the face of goal but nobody could get on the end of it for a tap in. Injury time was approaching and Hangeland smashed a clearance far over the top which Suarez found, catching Williams napping and he ran through, rounding Howard to leave an open goal. His shot hit the post and went in to give Liverpool the win.
The expert opinion (by Alan Hansen)
Liverpool lack a cutting edge and should play Suarez deeper behind a goalscorer. They completely dominated in midfield and Cabaye and Johnson impressed but to no avail. Swansea were strong tactically but struggled a little in midfield as Liverpool dominated there. However, Liverpool got very lucky today and won it through a moment of quality late on.
How the votes were spread:
4-2-1
Liverpool 1-0 Swansea
Suarez 90
- Norwich v Fulham:
Norwich went into this game in needing to get away from the relegation zone, while Fulham were looking to get into the Europa spots. Defoe took advantage of some sloppy early defending, beating Lugano and smashing a shot inches wide. But Norwich reacted well and Lugano and Distin didn't give Defoe an inch, keeping Fulham at bay. Izaguirre made a good run down the left and crossed the ball into Holt who beat Coates in the air but the header went over. Hoolahan then found some space and worked the ball through to Biglia, who hit a long range effort well wide. A long ball from Martin found Holt whose knockdown found Howson but Lucas blocked it. Fulham hit on the break quickly with Lucas winning possession and giving the ball to Montolivo whose accurate pass found Defoe who smashed a shot with a lot of power into Ruddy's chest, the ball going out for a corner. It was sent in and fell to Coates who smashed a spectacular volley past the keeper to give Fulham a lead against the run of player. They immediately looked to double it when Defoe received the ball and this time beat Ruddy but his shot his the post.
The Norwich side continued to pump long balls into the box in the second half and Wilbraham controlled Allen's pass and turned, found Hoolahan whose low shot was superbly saved by Schwarzer. Michu then was brought down by Howson and won a free kick on the edge of the box. Dempsey took the free kick and hit the crossbar as Fulham were unlucky once again. Hoolahan played a chip over the top which Holt got on the end of, shrugged off a Kaboul challenge and saw his shot saved by Schwarzer once more. However, Norwich continued to press and won a corner in the final minute. They sent everyone forward and Biglia took it. Distin won the header which was cleared off the line by Lucas, only as far as Allen who chipped the ball back into the box and Holt bundled the ball home to give Norwich a point.
The expert opinion (by Alan Shearer)
A strong performance from Norwich who got a hard fought point. Fulham didn't instruct their defenders how to deal with the strikers and they battered the Fulham defense. Fulham certainly had the better players on the field but Norwich were stronger tactically.
How the votes were spread:
0-3-2
Norwich 1-1 Fulham
Holt 90+4; Coates 30
- Stoke v Everton:
Stoke kicked off just one place above the relegation spots, while Everton were in an impressive fifth place. It was Stoke who looked to get men behind the ball and they didn't see much of the ball in the early exchanges as Everton kept it and passed it around. They got their first chance of the game when Santon made an overlapping run past Lennon and played a low ball into the onrushing Pranjic but the shot went wide. Everton continued to create opportunities, with Sinclair having a shot blocked by Calvalho and a header back from Huth almost going into his own net. Stoke created the best chance of the half though, when Diaby made a great break through midfield and played a great pass through to find Mirallas who had a one on one with Vorm and had to score but sent his shot two inches wide to leave it level at the break.
Everton immediately came out of the blocks in the second half and Sinclair found space behind the Stoke midfield and took a shot from long range unpressured to open the scoring. Everton tried to build on that and Downing made a run past Figueroa before playing a long ball through but Jelavic who got the yard on Shawcross completely missed. Stoke hit on the break and Mirallas burst into the box before being tripped by Evans to give them a lifeline of getting back into the game. Ashley Young stepped up to take the penalty and sent Vorm the wrong way but it was hit over the bar as Everton kept their lead. Vorm quickly sent them forward from the goal kick with a long ball smashed over which found Sinclair who showed some fancy footwork to get past Calvalho before squaring for Lennon to easily score to double the lead. Stoke went for it late on, though, and substitute Seedorf found Crouch with a high ball into the box but he headed wide, and Young sent in an inch perfect cross and Diaby made a late run into the box but Evans just did enough to put off the Stoke midfielder. The final chance of the game came when Pranjic was robbed by Palacios who found Barton. He sent a long ball into the box which found Crouch who knocked the ball down and Mirallas missed what was the easiest chance of the game.
The expert opinion (by Lee Dixon)
Sinclair was on form today and found space in front of the defense which helped him out, especially as Jelavic was surrounded all the time. Stoke lacked a bit out wide and Barton is no wing back. The Stoke midfield would end up being very narrow and the Everton full backs would be able to double up on the Stoke full backs.
How the votes were spread:
1-1-4
Stoke 0-2 Everton
Sinclair 49, Lennon 70
- West Ham v Southampton:
These two teams went into this game desperately in need of points to survive the relegation battle. It was Southampton who made the better start with Charlie Adam finding Lallana before he was shackled by Diarra. They then got another chance when Noble gave possession away and Richardson latched onto it. He found Frei in the box who was knocked into by Tomkins. He stayed on his feet when he could have got a penalty and got a shot away but Robinson was equal to the effort. West Ham got some joy later in the half. Cissokho made a great run down the left and found Krancjar who got a cross in, picking out Rodriguez but he shot just wide, and this was then followed up by Long missing two great chances, the first because he delayed his shot too long allowed Chico Flores to get in to clear and the second blazing his effort well wide after good work from Krancjar.
The second half started with West Ham having the upper hand. Noble played a through ball which went between Gunter and McAuley, with Fabrice latching onto it and cutting inside to shoot but Kelvin Davis was equal to it. Cissokho then played a long ball over the top which found Shane Long who superbly half volleyed the ball into the back of the net, however the goal was ruled out by the offside flag. Southampton created a couple of late chances of their own when Gunter got forward, played the ball to Schneiderlin who found Lallana who shot low. However, Robinson was equal to it and kept it out. Maxi Rodriguez whipped in the corner and it found Frei in the box who headed down on goal beating Robinson but Uchida was on hand to clear the danger to give both sides a point which doesn't help either side much in their battle to avoid relegation.
The expert opinion (by Mark Lawrenson)
These two sides were even and cancelled each other out. Simple as that.
How the votes were spread:
1-4-1
West Ham 0-0 Southampton

TACTICS (148 words)
This is a relegation six pointer and we lost the last one, we need to bounce back and get three points on the board. Long should make runs and play on the shoulder of the last man while Fabrice and Rodriguez should cut inside, use their skill and get between their full backs and centre backs. The full backs should bomb forward and get crosses in, while Noble can drive forward from midfield.
Lallana and Adam are their creative players and we can't give them time on the ball, Diarra and Noble are both full of energy and should be pressing while Krancjar is the creative player. M'Bia is a beast and should negate Lambert's physical threat by winning all the headers. Cissokho and Uchida should jockey the wingers, keep them wide. Phillips is quick so Cissokho should make sure he has a head start in any races.

CM - Stiliyan Petrov (c)
RAM - Gabriel Agbonlahor
LAM - Charles N'Zogbia
AM - Alberto Aquilani

Tactics:
Defensively we’re playing a deeper line, stop any runs. I want to see a commanding physical display, competing for every aerial ball thrown our way. Give them no time to move, work in numbers picking up the scrapes & second balls. When defending make the shape narrow compacting the middle. RB, look to bomb forward with the overlap, LB hold your runs, move into the centre. CM’s will both play holding roles. Track the runs of their attacking players breaking up play, look to play wingers/striker’s in with the long ball. Alberto, let’s not be afraid to keep the ball moving on the floor with slick moving passes, feeding the target man & spreading the play. Wingers cause them all kinds of problems keeping them guessing running down wings and cutting inside, lot’s of wide-play/crosses. Ba, use your size/frame linking up play. Make yourself a hand-full attacking crosses! Be prepared!
Subs: Łukasz Fabiański, Jean Makoun, Ciaran Clark, Darren Bent, Stephen Warnock, Louis Saha, Vladimir Weiss
On 68 Mins: Clark >> Ireland. Move defenisvly role looking to break up play with strong/physical challenges. Short quick passes moving the ball forward.
On 79 Mins: Vladimir Weiss >> Gabriel Agbonlahor. Like-for-like role hugging the right-wing attacking the flanks.
If loosing: On 72 Mins, Darren Bent to replace Gabriel Agbonlahor. Move into striker role alongside Ba, playing 4-4-2 with Alberto moving to the right-wing.

Diamé/Pranjic: Diamé to boss the midfield before getting the ball to Pranjic who will play as a a deep lying playmaker.
Lennon/Downing: Dominate their fullbacks, if we keep going at them then they will make mistakes. Look to whip the ball in for Jelavić.
Sinclair: Roam around between the lines, link up with Jelavić and keep their dcm (if they play one) busy throughout.

Tactics: Today we face a tough Fulham side. But they aren't that physical, so we will go out and bully them today. We will look to break the game up, not let them get there passing going, and disrupt there defence with high balls to our physical strikers. Full backs look to bomb on and get crosses in. Centre backs kick lumps out of the striker, and hoof it to Holt/Wilbs. Allen, Howson and Biglia, be energetic, get about and stuck in. Look to feed off Holt and Wilbs knockdowns. Hoolahan cause havoc off the knockdowns, and dont let the DM play. Holt and Wilbs you are both big lumps up top, win the headers from the long ball, and finish off the chances the creative players make. Get them elbows out. Boys lets go out there today, and bully, and pretty much, break them down into little crying balls of flesh by the end

- Starting XI:
--------------Reina---------
Corchia-Toure-Hangeland-Schmelzer
---------Sandro--Garcia--------------
-Krasic--------Cabaye-----Johnson
----------------Suarez----------------
Tactics: Attacking
-Schmelzer overlap Johnson as often as possible. They have their first choice RB out today and we can expose this.
-Corchia when attacking stay on the half way line, don't want you getting caught out with your in experience.
-Cabaye look to play in Suarez, their CB's lack pace which we can expose.
-Plenty of passing, look to take advantage of Swansea's lack of defensive midfielder
Defending:
-Garcia and Sandro, you job is to protect Toure today with Skrtl out. Look to use you physical presence to boss the midfield. Look to break up their attacks.
-Toure your the last man, not having you get caught in your first game back in the side. Hangeland get on top of Adebayor, if he get's space we're in trouble. Bendtner may play so Toure you need to get tight to him and not allow him to turn in behind.

Stoke City v Everton

Asmir Begovic
Robert Huth - Ricardo Carvalho - Ryan Shawcross
Joey Barton - Wilson Palacios - Abou Diaby - Maynor Figueroa
Ashley Young
Peter Crouch - Kevin Mirallas
Subs: Thomas Sorensen, Alan Hutton, Darron Gibson, Jonjo Shelvey, Gael Kakuta, Clarence Seedorf, Michael Owen
Playing a 3-4-1-2 system to counter the 4-5-1 Everton have played in recent weeks in different guises. Begovic, command your area and stay big, Huth/Carvalho/Shawcross, Jelavic will probably be the lone striker, one of you pick up on him and double mark him if the supporting midfielders are slow He will try to hold up play but outnumber him to rush him into errors. Be there to stop the AM's breaking into the area. Palacios/Diaby, sit infront of the defence, stop the Everton AM's. Dictate the play with the ball, feed Young/strikers. Barton/Figueroa, work hard throughout, work the flanks. Barton you've played RM and DM before, this is a dual role as you will need to be a RB at times but get forward to get crosses into the box. Figueroa you're a natural LWB so will play differently to Barton, use your pace to get up and down the wing all day. Also get crosses into the box. Young, free role to cause problems for Everton, even off form, you have the ability to drag players out of positon and score wondergoals, as well as creating chances for others. Crouch/Mirallas, torment the Everton CB's. Get onto the end of crosses and passes, shoot on sight.
Subs 70 mins:
If winning: Young and Mirallas off, Hutton and Owen on. Switch to a 5-3-2, with Hutton at RB, Figueroa at LB, the 3 midfielders move across to play as 3 CM's, leaving Crouch and Owen up front to make sure Everton cannot over-committ chasing the game.
If drawing: Palacios and Mirallas off, Seedorf and Owen on. Same formation, but Seedorf with more creativity at CM as a deep lying playmaker, and Owen with a different style upfront. Push for the win while keeping the same discipline.
If losing: Palacios and Barton off, Seedorf and Owen on. Young to RM, Owen forms a front three with Crouch and Mirallas. Wide midfielders get forward more, get crosses in, Seedorf get the ball forward too. Create chances. If still losing in the last few minutes, Huth and Shawcross get forward too.

Tactics:
Fullbacks: If wingers play push them outside and force them to cross from deep. Overlap the wingers when we have the ball
CBs: Watch the runs, don’t get tricked into rash challenges. Cover each other, don’t get dragged apart. Win any headers
Wingers: Run at the FB/CBs when you have the chance, go either side and tee up the strikers
CM: Sit and distribute, Ki time runs to link up the attack. Cover FBs when they go forward. Press them in midfield, don’t give them time.
Strikers: Sit on the shoulder of the last man when they have the ball, we can outpace them and beat them. Hernandez drop deep when we don’t have the ball and press the midfield.
We have too much pace for their defense, take them apart.

Dos santos granero dorrans
Cooper
Team talk:
A big 3 points last week and our first clean sheet showing we are starting to gel as a unit. Arsenal have changed manager so let's take advantage of that and get a result here.
Tactics:
We've pace on the wings so lets counter attack from long kameni kicks/throws when arsenals fullbacks are out of position and centre backs are isolated against our pacy wide men.
Defense:
Usual line, no offside trap- likely to play rvp alone up top, ridgewell man mark him but don't let him drag you out wide - pass him on then, beware of his runs between you and behind vlaar. Boesnich hold, grygera push on when you can.
Midfield - same unit as last week, granero great debut, get on the ball and feed our widemen. Mulumbu and Wanyama sit more this week, mulumbu pick up their playmaker/false 10, Wanyama fill in the gaps- find granero in between the lines if you get on the ball.
Wide men: hard work today, dorrans hug touch line and push rb back, boesnich is going to hold an cover you. Dos santos cut in when you can, link with granero and play in dorrans between rb and centre back.
Cooper - big chance today, stand behind centr half in build up so he either can't see you or drops deep, nip onside for through balls or be deep for hold up play depending on defenders action. If they catch on and play offside abandon this tactic.

- Schwarzer
Riether – Kaboul – Coates – Riise
Lucas – Montolivo
Michu
Moses ---------------------- Dempsey
Defoe
Team Talk:
Another good display last week, I want us to build upon that this week. We’re against a well organised Norwich team. They will try and dominate us physically, as they have done in pervious weeks. I want quick touches and a lot of movement. Don’t dwell on the ball otherwise they’ll close you down and take possession. Remember that they can’t go through you, it has to be done within the laws of the game, so don’t be scared of them.
Defending Instructions:
* Be firm with your tackles. We’ve got to match them physically
* Lucas be physical with their CF – Montolivo help out if they play an AM or SS.
* Riether & Riise, limit your runs forward, to protect us from being countered
* Moses & Dempsey, drop back into the flanks to double up with our fullbacks into a 4-5-1.
* Michu, close down their CM’s that are trying to pull strings.
Attacking instructions:
* Look to pass them off the field. Push them back and be potent infront of goal.
* Moses & Dempsey, look to link up with Defoe. Essentially playing 4-3-3
* Montolivo, look to create from deep; Quick & precise passing to the front four.
* Michu look to occupy the space infront of their defence. Watch the runs from Defoe
* Defoe, move along their backline and look for gaps to run behind their defence.
Subs: If losing after 60 minutes - Berbatov on for Michu: change to a 4-4-2

RM – Maxi Rodriguez
CM – Morgan Schneiderlin
CM – Charlie Adam
LM – Kieran Richardson
AM – Adam Lallana
ST - Alexander Frei
Tactics
Massive game this week, let’s keep our shape at all times & not lose our focus! GK, lots of communication between the defenders. Let’s look to drop off when they play aerial balls, MaCurly compete with their forward, Chico look to mop up 2nd/loose balls. Full-Backs, defensively look to bring wingers/attacking players inside. Make the space narrow! Gunter, break on counters & look for runs. Midfield when defending, let’s stay solid in 2 rows of 4. Wingers look to double-up defending, get the ball down and hurt their fullbacks, lot’s of wide-play/crosses! Adam, get your foot on the ball early mixing the ball around. Get the ball moving around on the floor early! Morgan, pester out any attacks, hard challenges winning key battles. Lallana, play off the striker, look to create/link-up all attacking play. Look for the long shots! Frei use your veteran head to gain space, chase down from the front!
On 70 Mins: Matt Phillips to replace Maxi Rodriguez. Impact player, look to attack running at tiring full-backs, lots or dribbling and crosses.
On 73 Mins: Danny Fox will come on for Wayne Bridge. Slot into the left-back position with fresh legs. Look to play the ball long & diagonal with great passes when attacking. Hold your line
On 79 Mins: Steven Davis will replace Charlie Adam. Box-to-Box role. You have the engine to get up and down the field. Support the attacking play with lung busting late runs into the box.

Subs:
Coutious, Bosingwa, A Lopez, Moutinho, Gourcuff, Marin, Kalou
Tactics:
- Have faith in our game plan and the result will come.
- Set the tone at the back - Cahill and Terry to keep it simple, staying tight on their man and don't allow sneaky touches around the area.
- Ivanovic and Cole have a licence to go forward, particuarly on counter attacks. Choose the right time. In defence, stay tight on wingers and full backs - don't let them get down the byline easily and get in crosses.
- Great balance in the midfield three. Essien to gobble up balls like a hungry hippo and stifle Newcastle's attacks. Carrick to keep possesion and allow us to play. Be patient with it.
- Carrick and Essien to attack where appropriate and pull Newcastle's defenders out of position. Flood the gaps.
- Lampard to play a free role and occupy the space between their defence and midfield, finding gaps to slot into. Work his socks off to track back where neccesary.
- Look to hit Newcastle on the counter when some of their defenders may be up field - particularly when defending their corners.
- Wingers to stay narrower than usual, becoming a front 3 in attack. The front three can interchange making it hard for the Newcastle's defenders to pick them up.
- Torres to play off the shoulder and look to get in behind, picking up balls from the wingers and Lampard.
- SO much quality on the bench, we can adjust our game plan accordingly. If we're winning we'll keep pressing, keep disrupting. If we're down, we'll bring on our attackers and try and spread Newcastle. Gaps will appear with their tired legs.

- Tottenham vs Reading:
Spurs
Cesar
Walker---Caulker---Vertonghen---Baines
Fellaini---Modric
Dzagoev-----------------------------Bale
Llorente----Damiao
GK instruct the back line. Get the ball out early to our FBs
FBs to contain wingers and block crosses, keep them on the flanks, look to link up play with wingers.
Vertonghen to mark their striker, Caulker to pick up wingers drifting in or AMs coming forward.
Modric to move ball about, create space and look to dictate tempo, Fellaini to be B2B, when available get into their box and use size to threaten.
Dzagoev and Bale to work with FBs to beat man on outside and hit balls across to the height of Llorente.
Llorente to hang on shoulder of deepest striker and time runs to meet crosses.
Damiao to drap defenders out of position and collect knockdowns from Llorente
Respect Reading, but opportunity there today to really put them to the sword, no mercy from the off.

- Set the tone at the back - Cahill and Terry to keep it simple, staying tight on their man and don't allow sneaky touches around the area.
- Ivanovic and Lopez have a licence to go forward, particuarly on counter attacks. Choose the right time. In defence, stay tight on wingers and full backs - don't let them get down the byline easily and get in crosses.
- Great balance in the midfield three. Veloso to gobble up balls like a hungry hippo and stifle Utd's attacks. Carrick to keep possesion and allow us to play. Be patient with it.
- Lampard to play a free role and occupy the space between their defence and midfield, finding gaps to slot into. Work his socks off to track back where neccesary.
- Look to hit Utd on the counter and expose their attack minded defence when they're out of position.
- Wingers to stay narrower than usual, becoming a front 3 in attack. Both given licences to exhibit their skills - take on their men and take chances.
- Higuain to play off the shoulder and look to get in behind, picking up balls from the wingers and Lampard.
- SO much quality on the bench, we can adjust our game plan accordingly. If we're winning we'll keep pressing, keep disrupting. If we're down, we'll bring on our attackers and try and spread Utd. Gaps will appear with their tired legs.Line up

Formation: 4-2-3-1
Starting XI
GK - Shay Given
RB - Nathaniel Clyne
CB - Joris Mathijsen
CB - Richard Dunne
LB - Jonas Olsson
CM - Stephen Ireland
CM - Stiliyan Petrov (c)
RAM - Gabriel Agbonlahor
LAM - Charles N'Zogbia
AM - Alberto Aquilani
ST - Demba Ba
Tactics:
Defensively we’re playing a deeper line, stop any runs. I want to see a commanding physical display, competing for every aerial ball thrown our way. Give them no time to move, work in numbers picking up the scrapes & second balls. When defending make the shape narrow compacting the middle. RB, look to bomb forward with the overlap, LB hold your runs, move into the centre. CM’s will both play holding roles. Track the runs of their attacking players breaking up play, look to play wingers/striker’s in with the long ball. Alberto, let’s not be afraid to keep the ball moving on the floor with slick moving passes, feeding the target man & spreading the play. Wingers cause them all kinds of problems keeping them guessing running down wings and cutting inside, lot’s of wide-play/crosses. Ba, use your size/frame linking up play. Make yourself a hand-full attacking crosses! Be prepared!
Subs: Łukasz Fabiański, Jean Makoun, Ciaran Clark, Darren Bent, Stephen Warnock, Louis Saha, Vladimir Weiss
On 68 Mins: Clark >> Ireland. Move defenisvly role looking to break up play with strong/physical challenges. Short quick passes moving the ball forward.
On 79 Mins: Vladimir Weiss >> Gabriel Agbonlahor. Like-for-like role hugging the right-wing attacking the flanks.
If loosing: On 72 Mins, Darren Bent to replace Gabriel Agbonlahor. Move into striker role alongside Ba, playing 4-4-2 with Alberto moving to the right-wing.
- Liverpool v Swansea:
Liverpool
Starting XI:
--------------Reina---------
Corchia-Toure-Hangeland-Schmelzer
---------Sandro--Garcia--------------
-Krasic--------Cabaye-----Johnson
----------------Suarez----------------
Tactics: Attacking
-Schmelzer overlap Johnson as often as possible. They have their first choice RB out today and we can expose this.
-Corchia when attacking stay on the half way line, don't want you getting caught out with your in experience.
-Cabaye look to play in Suarez, their CB's lack pace which we can expose.
-Plenty of passing, look to take advantage of Swansea's lack of defensive midfielder
Defending:
-Garcia and Sandro, you job is to protect Toure today with Skrtl out. Look to use you physical presence to boss the midfield. Look to break up their attacks.
-Toure your the last man, not having you get caught in your first game back in the side. Hangeland get on top of Adebayor, if he get's space we're in trouble. Bendtner may play so Toure you need to get tight to him and not allow him to turn in behind.
Swansea
Howard
Cuellar-Dann-Williams-Taylor
Dyer-Rodwell-Ki-Hoilett
Adebayor-Hernandez
Tactics:
Fullbacks: If wingers play push them outside and force them to cross from deep. Overlap the wingers when we have the ball
CBs: Watch the runs, don’t get tricked into rash challenges. Cover each other, don’t get dragged apart. Win any headers
Wingers: Run at the FB/CBs when you have the chance, go either side and tee up the strikers
CM: Sit and distribute, Ki time runs to link up the attack. Cover FBs when they go forward. Press them in midfield, don’t give them time.
Strikers: Sit on the shoulder of the last man when they have the ball, we can outpace them and beat them. Hernandez drop deep when we don’t have the ball and press the midfield.
We have too much pace for their defense, take them apart.

--------Ruddy----------------
Martin---Lugano---Distin---Izaguirre
------Howson---Biglia---Allen-------
-------------Hoolahan-----------
----------Holt---Wilbraham--------
Tactics: Today we face a tough Fulham side. But they aren't that physical, so we will go out and bully them today. We will look to break the game up, not let them get there passing going, and disrupt there defence with high balls to our physical strikers. Full backs look to bomb on and get crosses in. Centre backs kick lumps out of the striker, and hoof it to Holt/Wilbs. Allen, Howson and Biglia, be energetic, get about and stuck in. Look to feed off Holt and Wilbs knockdowns. Hoolahan cause havoc off the knockdowns, and dont let the DM play. Holt and Wilbs you are both big lumps up top, win the headers from the long ball, and finish off the chances the creative players make. Get them elbows out. Boys lets go out there today, and bully, and pretty much, break them down into little crying balls of flesh by the end
Fulham
Schwarzer
Riether – Kaboul – Coates – Riise
Lucas – Montolivo
Michu
Moses ---------------------- Dempsey
Defoe
Team Talk:
Another good display last week, I want us to build upon that this week. We’re against a well organised Norwich team. They will try and dominate us physically, as they have done in pervious weeks. I want quick touches and a lot of movement. Don’t dwell on the ball otherwise they’ll close you down and take possession. Remember that they can’t go through you, it has to be done within the laws of the game, so don’t be scared of them.
Defending Instructions:
* Be firm with your tackles. We’ve got to match them physically
* Lucas be physical with their CF – Montolivo help out if they play an AM or SS.
* Riether & Riise, limit your runs forward, to protect us from being countered
* Moses & Dempsey, drop back into the flanks to double up with our fullbacks into a 4-5-1.
* Michu, close down their CM’s that are trying to pull strings.
Attacking instructions:
* Look to pass them off the field. Push them back and be potent infront of goal.
* Moses & Dempsey, look to link up with Defoe. Essentially playing 4-3-3
* Montolivo, look to create from deep; Quick & precise passing to the front four.
* Michu look to occupy the space infront of their defence. Watch the runs from Defoe
* Defoe, move along their backline and look for gaps to run behind their defence.
Subs: If losing after 60 minutes - Berbatov on for Michu: change to a 4-4-2
- Stoke v Everton:
Stoke
Injuries: Ryan Taylor, Jermaine Pennant, Michael Kightly
3-4-1-2
Asmir Begovic
Robert Huth - Ricardo Carvalho - Ryan Shawcross
Joey Barton - Wilson Palacios - Abou Diaby - Maynor Figueroa
Ashley Young
Peter Crouch - Kevin Mirallas
Subs: Thomas Sorensen, Alan Hutton, Darron Gibson, Jonjo Shelvey, Gael Kakuta, Clarence Seedorf, Michael Owen
Playing a 3-4-1-2 system to counter the 4-5-1 Everton have played in recent weeks in different guises. Begovic, command your area and stay big, Huth/Carvalho/Shawcross, Jelavic will probably be the lone striker, one of you pick up on him and double mark him if the supporting midfielders are slow He will try to hold up play but outnumber him to rush him into errors. Be there to stop the AM's breaking into the area. Palacios/Diaby, sit infront of the defence, stop the Everton AM's. Dictate the play with the ball, feed Young/strikers. Barton/Figueroa, work hard throughout, work the flanks. Barton you've played RM and DM before, this is a dual role as you will need to be a RB at times but get forward to get crosses into the box. Figueroa you're a natural LWB so will play differently to Barton, use your pace to get up and down the wing all day. Also get crosses into the box. Young, free role to cause problems for Everton, even off form, you have the ability to drag players out of positon and score wondergoals, as well as creating chances for others. Crouch/Mirallas, torment the Everton CB's. Get onto the end of crosses and passes, shoot on sight.
Subs 70 mins:
If winning: Young and Mirallas off, Hutton and Owen on. Switch to a 5-3-2, with Hutton at RB, Figueroa at LB, the 3 midfielders move across to play as 3 CM's, leaving Crouch and Owen up front to make sure Everton cannot over-committ chasing the game.
If drawing: Palacios and Mirallas off, Seedorf and Owen on. Same formation, but Seedorf with more creativity at CM as a deep lying playmaker, and Owen with a different style upfront. Push for the win while keeping the same discipline.
If losing: Palacios and Barton off, Seedorf and Owen on. Young to RM, Owen forms a front three with Crouch and Mirallas. Wide midfielders get forward more, get crosses in, Seedorf get the ball forward too. Create chances. If still losing in the last few minutes, Huth and Shawcross get forward too.

Team Talk: After a good win last week lets use our pace to get at Stoke. Lennon/Sinclair/Downing can all hurt them today. Jelavić to be his predatory self and put this game beyond Stoke.
Vorm: Command your box, watch their cf
Santon/Enrique: Force their wingers into mistakes, get them wide.
Evans/Jagielka: Be strong and work together to nullify the threat of Stoke's strikers.
Diamé/Pranjic: Diamé to boss the midfield before getting the ball to Pranjic who will play as a a deep lying playmaker.
Lennon/Downing: Dominate their fullbacks, if we keep going at them then they will make mistakes. Look to whip the ball in for Jelavić.
Sinclair: Roam around between the lines, link up with Jelavić and keep their dcm (if they play one) busy throughout.
Jelavić: Predatory as always, if you get a sniff of goal take it. Stay aware and force the mistakes.

TACTICS (148 words)
This is a relegation six pointer and we lost the last one, we need to bounce back and get three points on the board. Long should make runs and play on the shoulder of the last man while Fabrice and Rodriguez should cut inside, use their skill and get between their full backs and centre backs. The full backs should bomb forward and get crosses in, while Noble can drive forward from midfield.
Lallana and Adam are their creative players and we can't give them time on the ball, Diarra and Noble are both full of energy and should be pressing while Krancjar is the creative player. M'Bia is a beast and should negate Lambert's physical threat by winning all the headers. Cissokho and Uchida should jockey the wingers, keep them wide. Phillips is quick so Cissokho should make sure he has a head start in any races.

RB – Chris Gunter
CB - Gareth MaCuley
CB – Chico
LB – Wayne Bridge
RM – Maxi Rodriguez
CM – Morgan Schneiderlin
CM – Charlie Adam
LM – Kieran Richardson
AM – Adam Lallana
ST - Alexander Frei
Tactics
Massive game this week, let’s keep our shape at all times & not lose our focus! GK, lots of communication between the defenders. Let’s look to drop off when they play aerial balls, MaCurly compete with their forward, Chico look to mop up 2nd/loose balls. Full-Backs, defensively look to bring wingers/attacking players inside. Make the space narrow! Gunter, break on counters & look for runs. Midfield when defending, let’s stay solid in 2 rows of 4. Wingers look to double-up defending, get the ball down and hurt their fullbacks, lot’s of wide-play/crosses! Adam, get your foot on the ball early mixing the ball around. Get the ball moving around on the floor early! Morgan, pester out any attacks, hard challenges winning key battles. Lallana, play off the striker, look to create/link-up all attacking play. Look for the long shots! Frei use your veteran head to gain space, chase down from the front!
On 70 Mins: Matt Phillips to replace Maxi Rodriguez. Impact player, look to attack running at tiring full-backs, lots or dribbling and crosses.
On 73 Mins: Danny Fox will come on for Wayne Bridge. Slot into the left-back position with fresh legs. Look to play the ball long & diagonal with great passes when attacking. Hold your line
On 79 Mins: Steven Davis will replace Charlie Adam. Box-to-Box role. You have the engine to get up and down the field. Support the attacking play with lung busting late runs into the box.
Subs: Craig Gordon, Danny Fox, Steven Davis, Mathew Phillips Maxi Rodriguez, Kenwyne Jones, Jos Hooiveld, Mahamadou Diarra
- Arsenal v West Brom:
No Arsenal Tactics
West Brom
4231/451
Kameni
Grygera vlaar ridgewell boesnich
Mulumbu Wanyama
Dos santos granero dorrans
Cooper
Team talk:
A big 3 points last week and our first clean sheet showing we are starting to gel as a unit. Arsenal have changed manager so let's take advantage of that and get a result here.
Tactics:
We've pace on the wings so lets counter attack from long kameni kicks/throws when arsenals fullbacks are out of position and centre backs are isolated against our pacy wide men.
Defense:
Usual line, no offside trap- likely to play rvp alone up top, ridgewell man mark him but don't let him drag you out wide - pass him on then, beware of his runs between you and behind vlaar. Boesnich hold, grygera push on when you can.
Midfield - same unit as last week, granero great debut, get on the ball and feed our widemen. Mulumbu and Wanyama sit more this week, mulumbu pick up their playmaker/false 10, Wanyama fill in the gaps- find granero in between the lines if you get on the ball.
Wide men: hard work today, dorrans hug touch line and push rb back, boesnich is going to hold an cover you. Dos santos cut in when you can, link with granero and play in dorrans between rb and centre back.
Cooper - big chance today, stand behind centr half in build up so he either can't see you or drops deep, nip onside for through balls or be deep for hold up play depending on defenders action. If they catch on and play offside abandon this tactic.
Subs: 70mins

Well being as people can either look at the grouped bit or the original by scrolling up I don't think it's anything to get knickers in a twist about.
If people's voting is squewered by not seeing the tactics in an Italic bold font setting then something is wrong.

Right lads a very tough game at Tottenham today. We know they play very similar football to us so we are going to have constantly show that we can match them for the full 90. I bet every single person associated to Tottenham football club is expecting us too role over for them i am now seeing how much character, guts and determination you have. I know man to man you can beat them today. Were not going to sit back today, were going to play our normal game.
1. Federici command your area as always, if anyone is slacking let them know. Need a big performance as always from you today.
2. Gallas and Kelly make sure you hold the deep line. You have both started a lot of games this season and both are very good leaders. I want you to stay very tight to there front men as we know they will contently be on there toes.
3. Jobi and Jimmy always take on there full backs. Lots of crosses and don't be affraid to go down.
4. The 3 lads in the middle there is more of you in the middle than them and your stronger. Look to bully them. Your 3 fantastic footballers who 9 times out of 10 will make a correct pass you can easily boss it today.
5. Drogba as always, be on your toes throughout the game cause them a nightmare. Been a key player for us all season, i need you to again set the standards today.

Re: Week 10 RESULTS
A strong performance from Norwich who got a hard fought point. Fulham didn't instruct their defenders how to deal with the strikers and they battered the Fulham defense. Fulham certainly had the better players on the field but Norwich were stronger tactically.
No offence meant, but how were he tactically stronger. They set out to physically damage my team.. With instructions like:
Get them elbows out. Boys lets go out there today, and bully, and pretty much, break them down into little crying balls of flesh by the end
Any footballer knows that with elbows out, you'd be sent off and hard tackles just aren't in the modern game anymore..
Physically dominating a team is fair enough, but when you plan to actually cause some damage is another. Their would be cards flying all over the place.
And I set Lucas and Montolivo to stop their strikers leaving the likes of Kaboul and Coates. Just because I didn't specifically say for Kaboul and Coates to mark their forwards doesn't mean they won't actually do their job. If thats the case then clearly 150 isn't enough for instructions..

A draw was the most common result given. I couldn't not give a draw based on the predictions, and that was the reasoning given.

As for Stoke v Everton, I catch Gregers out with his tactics and play a different setup to get the win, and people just go with names as I genuinely can't see how I lost so comfortably.
Someone please correct me.

Re: Week 10 RESULTS
"Stoke's 4 man midfield all seem out of position, and would be at times very narrow" Would this not apply to every midfield 4 then?
"they [Stoke] maybe invited pressure a bit and lacked on the wings" Perhaps, but then there was an extra CB and an extra attacking midfielder.
"stokes tactics not helping here" How? Just "not helping", you should maybe explain how.

Re: Week 10 RESULTS
I didn't get my votes in on time but looking at the set up Barton whilst having played on the right occasionally is more suited to a central role and he's clearly not a winger so there's not going to be a lot of movement going on down the sides.
Especially given that without a fullback he'd be under increased pressure to backtrack and against a player like Downing who gets his head down and bombs forward and you have Figuero in a position that again he’s rarely played and again up against a speed merchant like Lennon when he’s much further up the field than he’s accustomed too he may end up caught out at times.
I think that against a team that has natural wingers such as Everton that by playing in your set up it did give them room to exploit the wings.
There’s my two pennies worth but as said I didn’t actually vote so can’t say why others felt like they did.

Re: Week 10 RESULTS
Yeah, if you're going to play 3 at the back you need genuine wing backs I think.
The CBs were exposed too much

I'm just saying what people said. I'm not naming names, mainly because I don't know who they were myself
