Originally posted by bexleydave Ward, who isn't a CB, as a CB and Zaha as a WB, in a formation that went spectacularly wrong last Saturday; well that should ensure another sound thrashing The RCB and LCB roles in a 3 are a little different to the usual 2 CB's in a 4 at the back. It may or may not work with Ward there but I think it would suit him more than where we have him now. I think Zaha could do well at wing-back when there is not other good candidate for the role.

Originally posted by Mad4palace Speroni Ward - Delaney - Sakho Zaha - McArthur - Flamini - Cabaye - Schlupp Remy - Benteke For me the system needs to come first now, I liked 90% of the how we looked against Everton, the 2 up front showed promise of getting the best out of Benteke, Schlupp looked good on the left, all that was missing was an outlet on the right. Ward isn't cutting it as a wing-back, honestly I'd lie to see Zaha tried there, he'd see a lot of the ball and has the fitness to get up and down that wing. Tomkins has disapointed at RCB, Ward might do a better job there. I think that lineup has more "heart" than Saturday's team, Schlupp, Sakho, Flamini and Speroni are bigger characters than PVA, Tomkins, Ledley and Hennessey. Delaney needs to be captain again. Delaney shouldn't be on the pitch. Employee of the month is a good example of how someone can be both a winner and a loser at the same time.

For a minute I thought peeps were serious. The team has got to be: Speroni Ward, Pete the Eagle, Sakho, Sclupp Flamini, Miliviscivisivic (him), McArthur, Van Aaaaaanholt, Zaha, Alice Eagle (if able to get FA and Prem Lge clearance to play a real woman as opposed to those that played last week) or Sako. Subs from: The team bus driver, Richard Shaw, Mark Bright,, Kaikai, Campbell, Lee (Sammy), Sako (oops one too many Sakos).....Lee (the other one). Cant see that team being 4 down to Stoke at halftime!

Originally posted by sickboy Being French no2 is pretty much like being welsh no1 then . No competition. None of them play in one of the top 4 european leagues. Only Loris is good enough. OK lets give Mandanda the same number of games Hennesseys had then decide who is best! You keep bleating on about Hennessey like hes brilliant and guess what? He isnt good enough! We dont know if Mandanda is good enough yet, but he wont be worse than Hennessey, guaranteed!

I think SA might play a flat back four of; Tomkins, Sakho,Delaney,PVA. Dann has had a bad season probably due to the injury he is carrying. Give him a few weeks to get fully fit and then bring him back. After the Manager's comments about the mid-field at the weekend I think he will try to pack it and play 5 in there. Which 5 will depend on fitness and work permits.

Speroni.Speroni..Speroni.. NO way Hennessy..his confidence is below zero..and I mean sub-zero.. Only other choice is Stevie boy.. or I would put the 3rd choice in over Hennessy, that's how bad I rate him.. no disrespect to the 3rd choice..sorry that I cant remember his name, but he has to be good if Palace have him..although a big mistake was made with Hennessy, sorry he is NOT meant for the top clubs.. perhaps like Gayle, he is meant for a lower level of play..I wish him well, but he has to go.. Here since 81...(LAST CENTURY !!).. x-Dunraven School, early 1960.... Palace 'nut' since 58....
