Vieira can’t know! Admittedly we have pick itself back four when all are fit but midfield and forward areas?
Can’t understand how Hughes got left out v Chelsea.
I personally would go with a front three if Mateta with Olise and Edouard wide.
Hughes Eze and Gallagher in the middle and I order Butland in goal.
Shows we have a strong squad and with correct selection we would be top six!

Can we give 4-3-3 a rest? it's not as if we are P.S.G. or Real Madrid.

Yesterday's selection was incomprehensible.

What about:

Butland
Clyne, Andersen, Guehi, Mitchell
Zaha, Gallagher, Eze, Olise
Edouard, Benteke/Mateta.

Go for it! At least against the likes of Watford and Burnley.

Guita or Butland

Ward Anderson Guehi Mitchell

Gallagher McCarthur Hughes

Olise Edouard Zaha

That’s the team I think we will see against Watford.

They will sit deep and allow us to have the ball so Olise is a must over Ayew and Edouard has the skill to make something happen in a tight box.

Cant argue with that line up

We go back to a similar defence and midfield that served us well at the beginning of the season.
This means Kouyate, Mcarthur and Gallagher in midfield with the latter given freedom to get in the box as much as possible.
A front 3 of Olise, Edouard and Zaha - provided we play to Edouard’s strengths.
If we expect him to compete in the air and act as target man we’d be better served by Benteke.
The constant chopping and changing of the front 3 is not doing us any favours.

Because I don't rate him. Or rather, I think Gallagher is better and I'd like to see Eze play. I just think Ward, Ayew, McArthur look out of their depth against top half of the table teams. The man in question arrives half a second too late and the resulting free kicks put us under pressure we can do without.

That said, McArthur has his supporters. And against the likes of Watford and Burnley, you're right: he might do a job. But, for me, not ahead of Gallagher and Eze. Yesterday's midfield of McArthur, Kouyate, Schlupp would have been brilliant for a Championship side but all three are just too limited for where we are. Certainly as a threesome.

Excellent! Or even the U.18.
