Bound to divide opinion but hear me out.

I absolutely love Chamakh, he wins a lot of headers, rarely loses the ball and is ridiculously unselfish, what we lack is someone who can do something with his little lay offs, neither Jerome nor Gayle seem to be that person.[Gayle too weak, Jerome shoots like a donkey, Wilbs can't finish either, please do not call his goal against Wigan "finishing"]

I can't see this happening in a month of Sundays but would love to see Puncheon in front of Chamakh, he has a thirst for scoring, perhaps to the point of annoyance, we've all seen him try and take that extra man just to make space for a shot and he has got a good strike on him, if he was in that advanced position i think he could hit the back of the net at least as an interim solution.

This would also allow Bannan a place back in the team who i believe is just about the only player we have who can put in a quality cross.

Yeah, we could do worse, but wwould never happen.

I like it. However, I wouldn't risk experimenting at this point. I'd rather have Gayle out there instead of Jerome.

Gayle.

Enough said.

Totally agree. This was the line-up I proposed in the thread before the Stoke match when Jerome was suspended. Thierry Henry went from an average winger to a clincal front man. Why not see if Puncheon can do the same thing?
