"Neither Lucas nor Adam are midfielders that are going to break into the box very often, or dribble past players etc. Lucas does a great job covering and closing down, Adam does a great job playing passes from deep. So we need to commit more players forward against the weaker sides and press higher up the pitch"
exactly, i think Hendo should play in CM(his best position) in these games, he can pop in the box and can also cover more ground than Adam when the team lose the ball. Adams long passes aren't much use in these games.

I agree - he looks so m,uch better when playing in CM that when wide on the right it's amazing he was ever considered for the latter option - given the availability of Kuyt, Maxi, Johnson and Bellamy

Well Chelsea and Arsenal are unlikely to finish ahead of us this season imo. Arsenal's defense problems and failure to successfully replace Fabergas will cost them, their recent signings are just not measuring up. Chelsea are a spent force and may see their manager sacked at any moment. whether he's sacked or not, they will not finish above us this season in my view. I think we are well positioned for a top 4 finish and all the signs are pointing in the right direction.

No I don't think so Faz, they've had a bit of a run recently but it's a mirage. they will struggle against good sides and fall away after Christmas in my view. They haven't replaced the talent they lost and their defense is all over the place, no they're a shadow of last seasons team, and even then they collapsed towards the end.

for me spurs will finish in the top 4 but the rest anyone of them have just as much of a chance as any other team and looking at arsenal to say they havent recovered is just unbelievable , they have had there bad patch , chelsea having it now i hope liverpool dont have a bad patch but every team has a bad time .
3 Tottenham 11 8 1 2 23 15 8 25
4 Newcastle 12 7 4 1 18 11 7 25
5 Chelsea 12 7 1 4 25 17 8 22
6 Liverpool 12 6 4 2 16 11 5 22
7 Arsenal 12 7 1 4 25 22 3 22
