Henessey AWB Tomkins Sakho PvA Kouyate Milivojevic Townsend Meyer Zaha Sorloth 4231. Everyone in their position. Balanced. Pacey. Playing 4 CMs just will not cut it.

Agree that Sorloth deserves a start for a change. He caused Arsenal and Spurs problems when he came on and helped us finish both games strongly. He is young, adapting and far more of a physical threat from crosses than Ayew (who I thought worked hard against Spurs, the defensive mistake aside). We are far too quick to judge players. Sorloth has only generally had 10 or 20 minutes as a sub here and there in the league so it is harsh to ask him to work wonders. Although he has started in the League Cup matches and was apparently poor against Middlesborough, that was with our second string, let's see what he can do in our best XI.

I think a lot of people wouldn’t mind seeing this team lineup as it has balance with players in their correct positions.

I would play Sorloth. The whole team defending is spot on.

This is based on Tomkins and Benteke being injured. If fit, both woukd start in my team. Guaita AWB. Kelly. Sakho. PVA Wilf. Meyer. Luka. Kouyate. Townsend Sorloth I just want us to start with 4-5-1 with Townsend and Wilf constantly changing wings, and occasionally playing narrow, like inside forwards. Luka is doing okay but is almost Jedinak-esque with his occasional sloppiness. I believe in him, and think he'll produce some great displays, but he needs to do that. I like Sorloth. I accept he's a championship player...and even comically frightened of/bad at heading a long ball, but he has something about him. When we came up, we had lot of championship players -- Murray, Bolasie, Speroni, Punch, Jedinak, Ward. If any of them had gone to an established PL club at that time, their fans would have slaughtered them. But they had enough at that time to be good PL players. Sorloth just needs for us to believe in him, and to have a little more conviction himself. They just needed time and support.
If you want to live in a world full of kindness, respect and love, try to show these qualities. |

I have read this about 6ft 4in striker Andreas Cornelius who Malky Mackay signed for Cardiff in the Premier League.Cornelius only last 6 months at Cardiff - went on to play for Copenhagen and Atalanta and now plays for Bordeaux in the top French division.Corneluis said : "So it can take time and that is just normal" Rings bells !
