I go for Rangers here. Very good defense, the best part of the team. Very solid, capable to stop Defoe and Lucarelli. The midfield looks great too, with very good flanks and Luccin helping the defense.

Rangers easily. But I expect Wan to get a few votes.

The same formation (no coincidence I fear) limits the options; we'll have to judge position by position. I think both have equally capable defenses, and in midfield Garcia might get the better of Luccin. Davids is a bit out of position, if Ten Cate would put him there I would fire him myself. Drop him on central or defensive mid, he's good at that.

Rangers to win based on quality up front.

This should be much closer than it is in my opinion, the battle will be about the wingers getting the better of the full backs for both teams and getting balls into their forwards. Makaay is considerably past his best, and Saha is 'far from profilic' however so is Defoe. Lucarelli may well grab a goal, but it's not certain.

0-0 for me.

Closely matched teams and identical formations, so it's difficult to pick a winner. Ali Karimi will have the beating of Silvestre throughout, and his mazy runs could force the frenchman into one or two clumsy challenges resulting in a dangerous setpiece or penalty, but unfortunately for the away team, Shunsuke Nakamura is on the opposing team, and he could be the one who makes the difference, most likely from a setpiece.

Two very experienced and accomplished goalkeepers will be hard to beat, so i'm also predicting a 0-0 draw.

Rangers to win.

Hard to decide. I like his attack better with Nakamura behind them. All wingers here are good and will make it hard on the defenses.I think both teams will score but its the attack of rangers which will decide the game. 2-1 to him.

Who the hell are Bobablade, Lou and aliuddin?! Does the rule where you have to have a certain amount of posts still count?

It appears that Wan has asked certain members of WEM to vote for him. And the 30 post minimum is still in place, yes.

Match abandoned. Rangers is awarded the win. Scarface, HP and myself will discuss the implications for Wan.
