I would play Tosun over DCL like you as his movement/link up is better which will be more useful against a packed Brighton defence. I would stick with the same central midfield as today. Gomes doesnt like defending so he cant be played as a defensive midfielder on his own. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palfy Posted October 29, 2018 Report Share Posted October 29, 2018 Pickford Coleman. Keane. Zouma. Digne. Gana. Gomes. Gylfi. Walcott. Richarlison. Bernard. Did consider changing Gana but he will have a better game against Brighton no doubt of that, wouldn’t want to mess with the front line they still need more games together to gel and they are creating chances just need to make better decisions.

Aidan Posted October 29, 2018 Report Share Posted October 29, 2018 Pickford Coleman Keane Zouma Digne Gana Gomes Lookman Siggy Richarlison Tosun Keane and Zouma are going to be hard to separate anytime soon as that cb pairing. Coleman has been awful this season but is still better than Kenny at this moment in time. Lookman has earned a place to start and Walcott has earned a place on the bench, so a no brainer there. Bernard still needs time to adapt and we are a stronger team with Richarlison on the left. Tosun can have another go at that number 9 spot and hopefully take it, as he has scored a couple off the bench now and was unlucky not to start against United. Should be another win, kick ourselves back into some momentum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Posted October 30, 2018 Report Share Posted October 30, 2018 Tosun has to come in, Richarlison gives us so much more from the wing. Rest of the team should be unchanged. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted October 30, 2018 Report Share Posted October 30, 2018 I don't get the idea of sticking Richarlison up front. I've not seen any game yet, only the 20 minute highlights for each, but from what I remember happening was him scoring and assisting on the wing, and not sure he has scored since being put up top? Why are people / the manager so eager to change the formula? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cornish Steve Posted October 30, 2018 Report Share Posted October 30, 2018 I'd like to see McCarthy play. Maybe push Sigurdsson forward and play Bernard later from the bench. DC-L should start up front, and (despite what others write), I'd give Kenny another game instead of Coleman. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why are people / the manager so eager to change the formula? Although I don't believe this is his best position, he isn'ttt that bad at it. Scored 1 goal from the centre forward position, won the penalty against united, was involved in the build up to DCL's goal a couple of weeks ago. He is marginally selfish, which i dont mind, gets himself into good positions, but that final pass is lacking and is often a pop shot from the winger who has lacked composure to flash it across the goal to Richy. He is also quite good in the air, his only goal as a CF was a header (i think), and he has had a couple of other good chances with his head too. I think with a bit of time he could become a good centre forward. Matt and Bailey 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since the first game of the season when they lost to Watford they've only been beaten by Spurs, Liverpool and City and they've beaten Man United. Won their last three on the bounce 1-0 each time; by no means easy this one, we need to take our chances and we've not been doing that.

London Blue Posted October 30, 2018 Report Share Posted October 30, 2018 I'm going to this game, I hope we play like have been over the last couple of weeks, with a bit more ruthlessness in front of goal. Keep the pressure up like did against Palace and we will get a good performance and result. My only change would be Lookman for Theo, as despute playing well in the first 6 games he has been poor in the last couple. No point having competition for places if the players playing poorly are not dropped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluemineck Posted October 31, 2018 Report Share Posted October 31, 2018 Zouma cannot play against Chelsea. That game is too big to be Mina’s debut. He needs a run out alongside Keane this week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with the theory, but I'd rather keep our defensive pairing, who have been pretty solid by all accounts, together for the next game where we have a better chance of getting 3 points and worry about Chelsea after the game Romey 1878 and MikeO 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe Mina as a sub if needed or we are comfortably up. 3 hours ago, AlbanyNYToffee said: Pickford Coleman Keane Zouma Digne Gana Siggy AGomes Lookman Tosun Richarlison Would also go with this. If it doesn't pan out got Bernard, DCL, and Walcott on the bench. Love that we have an improved bench this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The pace of our wingers will give their ageing Italian full back (Schilleto? )plenty of issues, Cenk will give Duffy and Dunk a tougher game as a trad CF rather then Richarlison can. Hopefully this is the game we click across the park and give them a good spanking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why are people / the manager so eager to change the formula? I actually think he has done quite well. He was very greedy against Palace and thats what let him down but against Utd he got 2 1v1 situations (one was the penalty) and he probably should have had 3 assists. A CF who does that isnt doing a bad job. Against Palace he did really well in the physical battle too. The real question though is whether the difference between Cenk and Richarlison up front is greater than the difference between Richarlison and Bernard/Walcott out wide. If Bernard had played better in the last couple of games there wouldnt have been as many calls for Richarlison to move wide again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bailey Posted October 31, 2018 Report Share Posted October 31, 2018 Ill also add that Siggy has become much more involved since Richarlison came in and we at least appear to be winning the ball higher up the pitch on more occasions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
