Apologies if a duplicate post but couldn't see one specifically on this. With PVA being a liability at present and mcarthur not fully fit (as well as having been sub standard against Newcastle), I'd go with: Speroni Ward Sako Dann Schlupp Cabaye Mili Townsend Loftus-Cheek Zaha Sakho Mccarthur on for Loftus at some point, Riedewald as backup for LB/CB/DM, Fosu-Mensah as backup for Ward or maybe to start ahead. Undecided. Rest of bench: Hennessey, Kelly, Tomkins, PVA Thoughts?

Pretty much the team I'd pick, though I hear RLC didn't play that well on Tuesday, he is still dangerous enough to prevent West ham from overcommitting. Maybe I'd swap Sako for TFM or jr in mid, or PVA as a left sided midfielder, as apparently he can't defend but is decent on the ball. Edited by FairweatherEagle (27 Oct 2017 12.20pm)

Agree with that team. Not ideal but we were seriously lacking a man in the middle against Newcastle and whilst Sako isn't a striker, the one thing you can count on him doing when anywhere near the opposition area is taking a shot, with some accuracy as well. Hopefully the 90mins against Bristol have benefited him for Saturday.

Chelsea game, plus a centre half with a powerful left foot... Yeah, I mixed our players up... my bad!

Pretty much agree with this with whats available apart from I’d definitely stick TFM in over Ward. Funny how TFM seems to be out of favour a little for some reason Edited by MonsterMunch (27 Oct 2017 1.40pm)

This shows how poor the squad really is and none of the players that started mid week really deserve a place I prefer Tomkins over Dann he looks better with Sakho the partnership last season looked good with them two for the handful of games they had together. TFM Sakho Tomkins Papa Cabaye Mili Schlupp Townsend Loftus-Cheek Zaha

One dummy question from Norway - is it possible to play papa? Thought you needed to be in the PL 25 man squad?

Ward Dann Sakho PvA Luka Cabaye Wilf RLC Townsend Sako I don't see Schlupp as being much better than PvA and I think Patrick needs to get back on the horse quickly and prove his worth (although he has to stop marking the biggest players on set-pieces. I also think RLC drifting between midfield and attack to form a second striker could work well. Having said all that, I wouldn't be surprised to see the same team as at Newcastle but with RLC replacing the injured McArthur.

I thought from Roy's comments there was a good chance McArthur would be fit...
