All change!

This should not be a team to match or contain Palace.

This should not be a team selected to cope with their strengths.

This should be a team selection designed to annihilate them, set-up to obliterate them, picked to pummel them and send them spiralling towards the foot of the table.

It’s time for another 3 goal+ thriller!

————————-Ryan———————
Lamptey—-Webster—-Dunk——-Burn
————Alzate*—————Pröpper——-
Jahanbakhsh—Mac Allister——-Mooy-
———————Maupay———————

*Assuming Stephens is still injured or not 100% match ready.

Subs:

Button
Bernardo
Duffy
Trossard
March
Groß
Murray

Can’t imagine it will be wholesale changes.

Lamptey maybe in for Schelotto

Couple of changes on the bench I’d expect.

Personally I’d like to see Bernardo in for Burn as well.... Biss hopefully will keep his place as he has kept a close eye on Zaha in last couple of games against Palace and done it well.

1. Must change a not good enough Schelotto for Alzate if he's fit or Montoya if he's fit.
2. Must change Burn for Bernardo. Burn gives us nothing going forward and our play just hits a dead end when he gets it.
3. Must change Bissouma for Stephens if he's fit.
4. Must bring Lamptey and MacAllistar onto the bench.

Subs: Button, Duffy, Alzate, Bissouma, Mooy/March, McAllister, Murray

Go with a Potter-esque strange formation to nullify Zahaha down our right with Lamptey providing extra cover, Propper providing protection on the left. Mooy or (probably better) March roaming, and Trossard further advanced on the left to cause them problems.
McAllister to come off the bench and settle our nerves.

Three at the back looked a bit more secure so I’d try that again. The temptation would be to stick Lamptey straight in but Schelotto looked pretty good at Sheffield I thought. I’m not sure if Mooy is 100% fit at the moment or simply out of form so I’d be tempted to give Alzate a go in his place. Nice tricky, nippy front three.

—— Propper — Stephens (if fit) — Bissouma
———— Mac Allister — Mooy ———
——————— Maupay ——————-

Duffy to start to nullify Benteke in the air.
Montoya to start as he has always had a decent game marking Zaha.
Bernardo to start instead of Burn as he is a far greater threat attacking down the left flank.
If Stephens isn’t fit then Alzate to start in midfield.

My ****ing God! Did you see the point blank header against Newcastle. Boycott’s Nan could have scored that but he managed to bounce it off the side of his head wide.

I’d just leave him unmarked if I was Potter!

No, but I noticed a while ago that he's fukken ace at heading a goal providing the cross is millimeter perfect onto his forehead. If not, its going anywhere but goalward.

Don't know the team but think we may see Montoya/March on the right to stop Zaha. March does seem to have the beating of the SEGW lately.
