Given that Amos was the box to box player against Bournemouth I'd put wilock in that role. Also is BOS fit after his knock on Saturday?

Along the lines off
Dieng
Kakay Barbet Dickie Wallace
Ball Cameron
BOS/Albert wilock chair
Dykes

Or

Same back 5
Ball
BOS/Albert chair wilock Bonne
Dykes

In a 4141

Off course probably both wrong....

With an abundance of strikers and a home game, I would be tempted to play with two strikers

4-4-2 or 3-5-2 are the obvious formations, I guess that MW would prefer the 3-5-2.

I think it has been a long time, a way back last season, since Chair has played well. Mostly he's been poor but Warburton has persevered with him. I don't see him doing better anywhere in attacking midfield now and think its time he was rested / benched, and look at playing him further back in midfield as a link between defense and midfield, about where Ball played at Bournemouth, in the future.

I'd like to see BOS wide left and Adomah wide right with Carroll, Willock or Bettache maybe given a go in central attacking midfield, either in a 4 2 3 1 or in the 5 in a 3 5 2. Carroll the most likely I guess, but then I haven't seen much of the other 2.

Agree.

3-5-2

Let’s see what MW will think off.
 
To get the best out of BOS and Albert, I'd prefer 4-2-3-1.
Don't think we've really got a left wing back to play in a 3-5-2.

True we haven’t (unless we resurrect Niko).

But we have Wallace. So it would be slow moving wingback impersonating a full back.

A bit disfunctional I admit! :)
 
I watched them play Cardiff at the weekend and I thought Cardiff were much the better team and fully deserved their win.

As a Preston fan said, keep them goalless and they run out of ideas. We need to score first and hopefully ............................they run out of ideas.

Agree about BOS and Albert being a better fit in 4 2 3 1, though I'd love to see BOS given a go at WB. Left wing back is also where Nico plays, though I'm not sure if he's fit or in Warburton's plans. Think Kakay has played both right wing back and right CB, pretty well as I remember. The 3 5 2 allows us to play the extra striker, but maybe we now don't have a defensive midfielder quick enough to cover behind the wing backs when balls are aimed into the space left behind them when they've got forward.

This season is weirder than others... for a start I can't believe the Fakes are top when they have spent the last 4 seasons just about staying up? I keep seeing unusual results. I hate to use that old cliche but anyone can beat anyone. I expect the usual teams to kick on as the weeks go by and hope we are at least competing for a top ten place.
