On past best form I'd rate Krul the better keeper of the three but he won't drop Ryan (and rightly so)

On BEST form I would agree with you. But Krul's best form was a good few seasons ago now. Since he ruptured his cruciate ligament he has had a torrid time of it, struggling on loan at AZ Alkmaar last season. I don't know that Maty Ryan need worry too much for now, but he may displace Maenpaa from the bench.

Absolutely this. If it aint broke then don't fix it.

But our goal scoring is broke!

Ch is understandably conservative given where we are but team rotation is essential both to bed new players inand to give a different slant depending on the opposition. If we play like we did against MC against WBA then where are goals coming from?

WBA aren't too clever against pace, their defence will contain a paceless attack easily, so on that basis... (And get two toughies in midfield!)...

Ryan

Schelloto
Dunk
Duffy
Suttner

Knockaert
Stephens
Sidwell
March

Propper

Izquierdo



Subs:
Krul
Bruno
Hunemeier
Rosenior/Murphy
Gross
Brown
Hemed

I'd always play Sidwell and Stephens in front of the back four as steel and protection for the defence. Most PL clubs play that way, to also win the CM battle.

Allowing the front 4 more of free reign to attack, interchange, etc.

Sidwell's injury ends that line up.

I'll stick with the same formation, but placing Propper with Stephens. Height will be needed against the giants of WBA.

West Brom may well have Krychowiak and Barry in midfield together.

Both very good players but both WELL SLOW.

I'd UNLEASH Solly on a one man PEST MISSION against the big POLE in the middle. Don't let him have a second on the ball. Just keep nipping away at the lumbering OAF.

Meanwhile ex-Albion man Barry will be DAZZLED by what could have been, I mean, what did he REALLY achieve after SNUBBING us. His head won't be In the game and he will be SWAMPED by the engine PasGro.

That'll leave Jose and AK47 to UNLEASH hell on the Bowls club that are the west brom defence, opening up space for D-PROP so sneaky sneaky his way into the danger zone and bulge that score bag.
