No more crouch, this is the way to go now, pace out wide and pace in the middle, if this game had have finished 8. 2 nobody could have argued, we played some outstanding football and we should have put this game to bed at half time

Diouf needs work but he did get into good positions and will improve. Interesting debate about right back as GCam offers more in attack but Bardsley more in defence |

Crouch would be a good option away when we might need the ball holding up, even then i would prefer we try to hit them on the break, i wish Sparky had kept Bojan on and taken a tired (justifiably) Moses off for Assaidi
When Odemwingie gets back we have a scary amount of pace upfront and a scary amount of pace on the bench

I think we might have dropped on to our best attacking formation.

I like Diouf, really rate the lad. He should've had a minimum of a hat trick today: When Bojan flashed it across goal End of first half, when the GK did well - but he should've scored that The point blank header His goal (nice one) He's fast and powerful, so he gets in my team, but he's poor in front of goal. I hope he works night and day on his finishing - because then we've got a player on our hands. A bit too much Jerome / Akinbiyi about the lad for me at the moment. |

Nobody is perfect, if he put every chance he got away he wouldn't be at Stoke, he's finding the net plenty enough and the only way is up for him |

I didn't think you were and i'm sure he would agree, let's hope he starts hitting the back of the net more than he misses |

Disagree, Crouch is still a very important player and I believe he has a role to play in our starting XI.

I think we might have dropped on to our best attacking formation. Me, too. Pace and industry up front was the key, all our attackers were excellent. |

We have definitely discovered our best attacking formation, maybe replace Walters with Arnie when he gets his form back? Should of been in double figures by the time West Ham equalised.

Crouch is a quality player and a good option for when things aren't working for us. do think Diouf is quality though he had some amazing flick-ons to release Moses

Crouch has played well this season and he doesn't need to be cast aside. At the end of the day we need options because Diouf and Crouch are quite different players so we need to workout who works best in which combination.
It was only a few weeks ago that we deemed Moses Crouch and Diouf as the best forward line.

Its a tough one as crouch has been superb but he has to keep the same team for next week. I am looking forward to odemwingie coming back and have a front four of
Bojan
Odemwingie Diouf Moses
Frightening pace, power and guile.

Good player to have on bench still and able to do a job when it suits. |

People are forgetting that the chance diouf didnt put away before half time was created by himself after a superb turn and a very good save.Ihonestly believe that if he stays fit that he will score more goals than anyone else has since weve been in the premier league!

We have to stick with this front 4, some of the best football I have seen us play in recent times, Bojan and Moses running at people, Diouf using his pace to worry people and Walters greta in a supporing role. At times it will leave us open but we will be scoring for fun. When Bojan ran at Cresswell first half, I have not seen a defender so confused for a long time. 2 scabby goals cost us but we made enough chances to win 3 games. Credit to the management, if this is how they saw the signings fitting together, then a great job

Nothing against Crouch but we need to play a pacy player in that position |
