Can't quite see where they're all playing mate?
Is it 3-4-3 with Kakay as a CB and BOS and Chair as wing backs?
How are the front three lining up?

My problem with that set up is that our most positive player (which are few and far between at present) would find himself more of a fullback during a 90 minute game. Not for me

It would be very QPR to sign a load of wingers then shoehorn them in at wing-back.

Big Aggressive Dykes has played 47 games in the last three days for Scotland so I reckon he’ll ask Bonne to run around a lot by himself up there.
 
I like Ball and would have him over Cameron any day of the week. Both are not blessed with any pace at all and that's a big issue for me. These two would (I presume) be asked to sit in front of a back 3, covering the full back areas aswell. It's a formation that I have played at local clubs I have coached (with huge success) but it takes lots of work on the training ground. Those 2 players are the key to making it work.

I don’t think Cameron can be relied upon to cover anything but a five yard square from wherever he starts the match.

I have thought for a while BOS could make a decent wing back, because apart from being a fast wide player he is strong and no pushover defensively. I don't know about Adomah, but if we did play BOS as WB, I reckon we need someone more defensive minded as the other WB, and someone a bit quicker than Cameron and Ball to cover from central midfield, Chair alongside Ball maybe.
 
I know Carroll got labelled with the cursed ‘lightweight’ badge (meaningless to me, but there you go) in his first spell with us, and I will agree that he is an under achiever, but he still seems to be a proper footballer to me. Does nobody else rate him?

I do. He's a better player than Amos for sure.

I think it is really difficult to pick the eleven or even the formation.
One or two platers are going to be unexpectedly on the bench.

Unconventional! When we have the ball BOS and/or Kakay get forward and one of Ball or Carroll covers. When we don't have the ball BOS and Kakay defend .
Uncle Albert comes on and finishes them off in the final 30 minutes.

A bit like my team, but with one less player!

I did say that it was difficult.
