So who makes way for Townsend? I'd reluctantly drop Perez and bring him on for Townsend or Mitro around the 60 minutes mark. Andros won't be used to the PL pace so we need to ease him back in.
Looks about right to me. So much better with Wij in the middle. The news on Tiote has all gone a bit quiet.
This looks right to me and highlights the desperate need to sort left back. It would make a massive difference. If you add a striker who can finish, there really is no excuse for not getting out the bottom 3.
It looks good, but Scteeve will play this ----------------Elliot------------------ Janmat Mbemba Colo Townsend ----------Anita ----Colback----------- Sissoko-----Wijni ----------- Aarons ----------------Rivierre------------------ Maybe he might drop Mbemba For Steve Taylor, Sissoko for Goufrann and Aarons for Obertan At least McClaren can say, Oh what a strong bench we have!
Debuchy on loan would be a good option for us. Play him at LB. Dummett is injury prone and cannot be relied upon long term
Only thing I would query - We need another striker and to play with two up top. So who would get dropped then?
I'd hope that if we can get in a goalscorer we can switch away from the 4-2-3-1 formation and move to a 4-1-3-2 formation. Would love to see this... please log in to view this image (and yes I know there's a typo with Berahino)
Bet you any money some **** posts to say that team would get raped due to the lack of defensive qualities
