defence for chelsea game?
A bit early but who would go with presuming everyone's fit?
For me neville - evans -- rio/vidic -- evra For me evans has to play. he has looked very good so far and vidic, rio are just both struggling now. I am still undecided whether it should be rio or vidic. On one hand, you have drogba's strength ( vidic's needed for that ) but then you the pace of drogba and anelka ( which vidic would struggle against ). |

evans and rio.
i think i must be the only one who doesn't blame rio for getting beat by the best centre-forward in the world on sunday. he's not in his best form but he's at least coming back from injury and there's every reason to think he'll keep improving. £#%&! knows what's going on with vidic because he's been shit for a while. evans deserves to play on merit, not just because of the failings of others. said it for a while. http://www.utdforum.com/forum/showpo...1&postcount=17 http://www.utdforum.com/forum/showpo...8&postcount=25 |

evans is such an astonishing talent for his age that i think he'd be pushing vidic for a first-team place by the end of season whatever vidic's form. he really has the lot - pace, acceleration, timing of his tackle, strength in the air, temperament, guts - and seemed to add a welcome dose of aggression in the tackle last season as well. he's very young so he's going to slip up from time to time but he'll give us a lot more. and i think the team needs freshening up. |

I would definitely start Evans and I would give him a run in the side starting against Blackburn. I think I would give a Rio a rest. Didn't Evans make his debut at Stamford Bridge? He is one of the most impressive players we have had come through for years imo, he plays like an experienced defender, he doesn't get phased by anything and is so calm. At the moment Rio and Vidic look shit scared whenever we play a decent team or we're playing a team with a decent striker.

I think we should take any bids that come in for vidic this jan or summer and get another cheaper replacement like he himself once was. The match at OT against liverpool probably exposed to the whole watching world and media, that vidic looks poor against pacy strikers. I think this probably has affected vidic mentally too however much he argues against it. He hasn't looked the player he was since that match. there have been no injuries too in between. barca and madrid look like they will sniffing once again for a defender, so we should cash in. |

vidic has been poor for almost 4 months looking back at the last season also. That's no blip in form. And I was always of the opinion that vidic looked partly so good because of rio being with him. Vidic will always plays well against strong strikers but will struggle against pacy, tricky strikers. bring someone young in, give them a couple of years to settle in while rio with evans will be our first team CB pair. although cathcart, dudgeon ( who ole is a big fan of ), brown aren't bad back up options either. |

edit : gray mentioned it. vidic was probably player of the year up until that match. after that he was very poor and not in the running for me. |
