Kouyate is reputedly a better central defender than central midfielder.

So with that in mind I'd go; 5, 2, 1, 2 with;

Guaita
AWB, Tomkins, Sakho, Kouyate, PVA
McArthur, Milo
Meyer
Townsend, Zaha.

Problem with 3 5 2 is if you lose the ball in attack you have to revert to a back 4 with kouyate dropping to the centre, dann or sakho would be terrible as a full back.

Assuming everyone is fit ...

I'd give Luka (head's not right last few matches) and Benteke a rest on the bench, and leave Ayew as a substitute option to shake a game up if needed.

Jimmy Mac played a blinder against Southampton and Sørloth needs a couple of full 90 minutes for everyone to decide if he's decent or not.

Zaha is a winger. End of.

-----------Guaita
AWB - Tomkins - Sakho - PVA
-------Meyer - Kouyate
Townsend - MacArthur - Zaha
-----------Sørloth

Bench: Hennessey, Kelly, Ward, Milivojevic, Schlupp, Ayew, Benteke

The two holding midfielders both need to be ball winners and that would suit Luka and Kouyate. The central attacking midfielder is the playmaker and Meyer could do a job there. 4-2-3-1 is a very flexible formation and would suit our counter attacking play. It also has the benefit of ensuring that we are not outnumbered in midfield. However, it does rely on the two wide attacking midfielders (Andros and Wilf) tracking back a lot to support the full backs when out of possession. If they don't, then it becomes very easy for the opposition to overload the fullbacks.

strange how Hennessey [one of our better players this season so far ] heaters dropped him for Guaita [ untried at this level ] the bigger surprise is they have not call for Speroni to be our first choice goalkeeper
