Would really like to see DD back in - should improve set piece defending.

AP will have to make some changes with CW out for the rest of the season.. good luck Connor for a speedy recovery.. and YC suspended after getting a poor booking at Swansea.. still don't understand why he was booked and the two defenders obstructing him weren't even spoken to.. feel AP needs to bring in Delaney to organise the back four and Flamini to sit in front of them and organise the rest..

I feel sorry for Kelly playing out of position but his confidence looks shot - at least Fryers can get forward and his defending certainly cant be worse than Kelly at the moment. Incidentally, why did we bother to play Fryers in the friendlies? He did okay and we are crying out for cover at that role - he must be seriously bad in training.

Let's see if Tomkins plays RB and Ward LB or 3-4-3 instead. Desperate times call for desperate measures. I would be more inclined to see a 4-1-4-1 formation with a defensive midfielder like Ledley and Flamini helping give cover to Fryers and Kelly.

Basically what I was trying to say in the 4-1-4-1 formation is our defensive midfielder would give cover to whomever starts at LB in open play and can only help on set pieces.

Could you imagine a 3-4-3? I think it could suit us really well. We need to win, I couldn't care less about a clean sheet, as long as we won. Hennessy Edited by Hansy (02 Dec 2016 5.39pm)

Why? The defending in open play hasn't been that bad recently. Changing the system in response to conceding loads of set piece goals doesnt make a lot of sense to me. The players would take time to get used to that formation - would be a huge unnecessary risk Edited by victor43 (02 Dec 2016 12.47pm) That's what you have training sessions for which, given our performances must be alien to him.
