I really think we could struggle if we play the same side v Palace. They have a lot of pace but look very open at the back. I'd love us to go back to 4231 and stick Mame up front and put Zouma in CM with Allen.

I'd mix it up as well, but not just for palace. We need more dynamism going forward. Sadly the above is the best I xan muster from the current squad.
We need a complete change of mindset and personnel in the middle of the park If we are insisting with 5 at the back.

The midfield 2 isn't good enough for a 343. we have no creativity in attack without Shaq and Jese on the field.

The manager is far too lazy to shake it up Lazy is an appropriate adjective I think. It was as if Hughes thought, "We got a draw against Leicester, I'd be satisfied with a draw again, so I can't be bothered to consider changes because that would require time and effort." Did he even carefully analyze and discuss different formations with his staff? Doesn't look like it. Hughes has struck me as apathetic lately. So have the players. Maybe even the fans too.

I would go with a diamond with 1 holding mid, 2 box to box and 1 in behind a front 2. I would also play Choupo as an out and out target man with Shaq looking to play off him (they have linked up well so far) and Dioufy sitting on the last defender.

GCam/ Zouma if GCam still isn't ready
Allen Fletcher

If you are palace then with our tactics at the moment you would just be telling zaha to stand between ryan and zouma and hit him with ball after ball. The back 3 is totally disorganised. Shawcross is actually playing well though, get him back in a conventional back 4 and watch the clean sheets start coming in again

If you are referring to Zouma then he's played there for Chelsea and done well. The fact that Fletcher has become undroppable because there is no one else is just another example of muddled thinking from Hughes.

I've already written off the Palace game as I do every season. May as well play the U23s and give the first team a week in Dubai.....it's tough for them you know.

Fletcher should not be deemed undroppable just on what he has achieved earlier in his career,a lesser decorated player would and should have been left out before now!

We really need to break the palace hoodoo. But I fear we will roll into town with our full charity banner on, and give them 3 easy points.

Why should Fletcher be playing? He's been awful. Zouma is playing crap at CB and can play CM. Two birds, one stone.

Someone please send Geoff some smelling salts to wake his ass up, we need him in the middle fast for Fletcher, his legs need rest. That is the shake up needed in the middle. In the defense, we need someone to slap BMI to get him angry again and get Wimmer out of the backline for a while to get some clean sheets.
