I see a centre back, either Zouma or Bruno, as the only newcomer before Everton (I think we will get Delph late in the window as well). Away to a team on which lots of money will have been spent, Hughes will go for a tight midfield three.
Butland
Johnson Shawcross Zouma/Bruno Pieters

Butland KZ/Cameron Shawcross Bruno Johnson Pieters Fletcher Allen Ramadan Shaq Saido That's quite depressing. Realistic... If we can get Zouma, that back 3 is as good as any in the prem.

Seeing Johnson in the starting 11 fills me with dread, Johnson should be nowhere near the 1st 11,or the subs bench come to that,neither should Pieters, if he keeps playing the way he has done since he signed that new contract.

We have the worst pair of full backs in the league and it was our biggest weakness last season. It's staggering that all we've done to rectify this is sign an 18 year old to put a bit of pressure on Pieters. One can only assume that the manager is completely oblivious to how wank our full backs were last season.

I honestly think Arnie will still be starting until near the end of the window. Stoke hold the cards an will hold out for every penny

It's hard to tell Hughes' "plan", but maybe it's a 3-5-2 along the lines of:
Butland Zouma Ryan BMI Shaq Allen Delph Fletcher Sobhi Bojan Berahino
and play Grant and the youngsters in the cups

After watching Ngoy so far I am hugely impressed with his direct running, and his composure on the ball.He's good at receiving it with his back to the defender.
I'd like us to try him in the middle as a withdrawn striker. He has loads of energy, he can track back and help close down in midfield.
I think this lad deserves a chance.

The thing that jumps out at me from reading this thread is how most posters have picked almost an identical team. A reflection of a serious lack of options for the manager. Forget about a back three of Ryan/Bruno/Zouma. Surely the Zouma interest is a plan B if as looks likely the Bruno deal goes tits up.

After today and with a few breaks in the transfer market Butland Edwards Indi Zouma Eric Fletch Delph Joe Ramadan Berahino Shaq Allen's position is questionable there for me with Imbula and Bojan potentially offering far more. He needs to return to be an all action box to boxer as that advanced role simply does not suit him. If we sign Delph, where would it leave him?

personally cant see Arnie ever starting again for us, if we dont sell he will sulk or refuse to play, unfortunately we are going to see what his true colours really are now.
