Bridge out until the New Year

OmniFootball (Free subscription) | yesterday

... Over at the MEN story there has been plenty of call for Lescott to move across with Onouha or Kompany slotting in the centre. I doubt Hughes goes for this though. He didn't on Saturday (when neither Sylvinho or Garrido were on the bench), preferring to drop Barry back in there and bring on Kompany in midfield (perhaps as an attempt to close out Chelsea even further though) and with...

Toure praises squad depth

Bitter and Blue (Free subscription) | 12/07/2009

... Toure makes an important part about the depth in the squad and with players like Johnson, Kompany, Robinho and (to a lesser extent) Santa Cruz returning to full fitness the squad has a very strong feel to it, with some quality players likely to miss out on a place on the bench, let alone the starting eleven. As much as anything, this depth will likely build competition rather than divisiveness...

... Option 2) Our next option would be to play Joleon Lescott at left-back and move either Vincent Kompany or Nedum Onouha to centre half. Lescott has some experience at left back as he played there for Everton quite a few times. 2) Richards - 28) Toure (c) - 4) Onouha - 19) Lescott Option 3) Our final option would be to play Gareth Barry at left back.

... to see what changes (if any) Hughes opts for. It wouldn't be a stretch to imagine de Jong or Kompany being drafted in to bolster the midfield. Whilst Ireland may be the likely casualty, it is possible that Tevez could be the player to make way with Wright-Phillips (if fit) pushed further forward. Robinho could see a return to the side given doubts over Craig Bellamy . Norfstander makes an...

... make it. This is not only affecting Academy players though. Last nights introduction of Vincent Kompany highlighted the quality and competition within the squad now, and as we progress this will only intensify further. Despite the prospects of limited opportunities, it is clear Onouha still sees his future at the club - perhaps as a result of him having never really been a nailed on regular...
