Hooper and the Wolf

[The Great Mass Debater 1,078]

Reading the article about RvW coming back got me thinking. Now the two of them are back and available, should it be the case that we now spend the rest of the season trying to work out a way of playing them together. Elmander is only on loan and Becchio not really in the picture. They are each out biggest outlay in terms of transfer fee. Surely they are both our future and surely if we could find a way to get them to play together that would be the ideal scenario. Difficult though, as do they naturally complement each other? Are either versatile enough to play in a role other than central striker and still be effective. Im not a big fan of playing strikers out of position in the hope you get their striking talents, as I think for the most part it doesnt work. But maybe this is something we should persevere with if they are the future. Interesting that when RvW came on against Sunderland, he seemed to play the deeper role, though that was probably circumstantial.

With rvw being interviewed at the press conference yesterday I think we will see them both against Fulham for the first time.

I hope we do see them both on boxing day, I think they will work well and if they don''t they definately will eventually

That is literally the first time I''ve seen you make a comment without self-harming over Paul Lambert, pansy.

I didn''t want to state the obvious but if the Messiah was in charge they would have been paired up from the beginning rather than playing that useless tool Elmander

So he would have played an injured Hooper?

And then an injured RVW?

If you''re going to troll at least try and have a tiny amount of common sense.

I am really looking forward to seeing RvW and Hooper together but please, please Chris Hughton play two wide men on the right sides that they can attack wide and get in crosses for those two to attack.

Please don''t play inverted wingers, Snodgrass right, Redmond left, because if you do it will not work!

Give our two strikers room to work.

I can''t remember too many complaints when Hucks played in virtually his whole NCFC career as an inverted winger...

[The Great Mass Debater 1,078]

If we cant play them together in a 4-4-2, do we accomodate them elsewhere in the system, ie AM or dare I say it wing? Do we accomodate at all costs, or do we bench one of them?

Hucks was something special to be fair. Could you imagine what we could have done as a club with hucks providing the ammunition holt firing the bullets and lambert providing the leadership. It would have been he greatest canary side of all time

No complaints about Hucks but at the time he played so did Rivers, Jonson, Bentley, Croft, Chadwick and perhaps others I have missed, who were all conventional wingers.

Yes, we perhaps have one inverted winger, but not two! The attacking options are severely limited that way by creating no space in the final third and crowding ourselves out of the opposition penalty area.

It''s a shame that Hooper''s christian name isn''t Peter.
