4-5-1
Although it does seem too negative at home. However as our home form is absolutely pony, and it has worked well (albeit away from home), I think we should go with it.

Although I don't usually agree with changing systems to suit players, I think it would be harsh to drop Dicker or Navarro. Adding to that Crofts is captain, and with the last 2 results, it really is hard to see past 4-5-1 for me.

4-5-1 looks the best formation we have had for a while. Leave Bennett and Lua Lua to break down the wings and support Murray up front. Also with Bennetts defending ability it means Calderon can occasionally break forward knowing he has cover!
With Dicker back more towards central midfield he can have much more influence on the game and Crofts and Navarro do the covering behind him.
I think 4-5-1 fits the players we have in our team.

Painter was one of our best players on Tuesday, as he has been for the last few games.

Was it this time of year almost exactly 10 years ago , in Micky Adams first full season, that we settled into a 4-5-1 formation and went on to have a 14 game unbeaten run?.
We all know what happened the following season
Yeah, we lost at home to RUDDY Kidderminster. Adams OUT!

I'm not having a go at him, I'm just giving my crack pot suggestions to them team selection. It doesn't matter, anyway. Poyet doesn't care what I think, as proven by keeping Brezovan at the club.

Same team as Tuesday same formation = same match outcome, Albion win.
I can't believe anyone wants to play 4-4-2 OR change the formation at all after the lads did such a good job on Tuesday. absolute joke.

It's not about the opponent, it's about what works best for our team.
