Lennon is out of this one. Not available for selection according to Redknapp.

Based on our last two games we really need him in the run in our not so big league games, another injury set back for him could be really bad for us.

For me at least. Make us solid in the middle, a draw would be a good result for us. Without any real 4-4-2 right wing option in our squad without Lennon I think this is the best we can do. Not a Kranjcar game at all, VdV on the right in a 4-4-2 will make us a bit too weak in midfield.
Hoping more than thinking that King will be ready, if he's not it's close between Gallas and Nelsen imo. The thought of an unfit Gallas up against Drogba makes me cringe so I would probably say Nelsen.
FFS.

Think it'll be this, which I'm happy to see. Although I'd honestly have Livermore in over Parker.

For the love of GHod please. Livermore knows where he should be and what he should be doing. Parker does not.
but, its our last really big league game.
fudge me just realised how close this game is, actually quite nervous.
I expect nothing. If Parker stuck to his job and tracked Ramires we'd stand a chance but he'll probably be too busy taking extra touches on the ball and falling over and as a result the young Brazilian will boss us. Realistically our best chance would be putting on our young Brazilian and hoping he makes the game his own.
Interesting thought: Why was Harry so vocal in Sandro's need to stay in our half and track Lampard even after he scored that cracker at the Bridge last season when Parker is allowed to roam wherever he fancies achieving comparitively fudge all apart from making all our attacking play flaccid?! Doesn't make sense to me.
And I know I'm probably starting to sound like a broken record with this stuff about Parker but I just don't know how Harry can't recognise how run down and knackered Parker looks....
Totally agree. Sandro was immense there last season and should start ahead of Parker, who is well off his game atm.

I've been one of Parker's biggest fans this season, but he has been poor recently and wouldn't be the worst thing in the world if Sandro took his place.
If Parker does start he should not come out of our half at all tomorrow
thats my team too
