What you guys thinking tonight will we continue our 4-3-3 formation or go back to 4-4-2 and whats the team you would start with

Mine

Guzan
Ros Chester Gerrard Daws
Koren Evens Harper Amoo
Fryatt Mclean
 
other than the obvious inclusion of Guzan we should stick with the squad that won at Forest. I would change the starting XI though. Koren looked very jaded on Saturday so giving him a break would be worthwhile. I'd have Cairney in there, so: Guzan, Rosenior, Gerrard, Chester, Dawson, Cairney, Harper, Evans, McClean, Simpson, Fryatt to start. When its 0-0 after 60 minutes, Barmby & Amoo to inject some new energy.
 
Burnley have got two of the best wingers in the division playing a 4-3-3 did not work last time and it was the reason that we lost the game, what happens if we do it this time no doubt we will lose it again. However i suspect we may see the same team just put it into a 4-5-1 system, but i would much rather see Amoo and Barmby in there somewhere.
 
Personally I don't like 4-3-3 especially with Simpson ,McClean and Fryatt together they are too similar .If Mcclean and Fryatt have an understanding then I'd leave out Simpson and revert to 4-4-2 or put someone else in his place.
 
Team has been announced as:
34 Guzan
03 Dawson
16 Chester
25 Gerrard
30 Rosenior
08 Harper
18 Barmby
22 Koren
28 C Evans
12 Fryatt
33 Mclean

Hopefully 442 but could be 433 with Barmby up top - at least we can change it during the game.
