Team v Burnley 13:18 - Feb 8 with 4444 views | alibaba | I'd love to see an attacking 4-3-3 with Triple 'A' up top. I suspect it will be similar but probably Dyer in for either A Ayew or Abraham.

Team v Burnley on 13:35 - Feb 8 with 4371 views | Swan91 | I think they won't change the formation really.. the only thing I am wondering.. is who will start. -----------------------Fabianski----------------------- -----------------VDH-----FF-----Mawson------- Naughton-----------------------------------Ollson -------------Ki-------Clucas-------Caroll--------- ----------------Tammy---------------------------- --------------------------------J.Ayew------------- Subs: Nordvelt,Roberts, Bartley, King, Narsingh, Dyer, A.Ayew. I feel bad for Dyer but I think Tammy would work well with this team who are actually attacking now.. and he is more likely to score goals than Dyer is. And that bench is not a bad bench. Having Ayew come on for Ayew in the second half (once jordan has run everwhere) and then narsingh or dyer on for Tammy to add some pace in the last part of the second half.. I think it could work well. I feel that noone in the team should be replaced so easily by the new players.. because they are playing so well.. so let them work their way into the team. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |
Team v Burnley on 13:36 - Feb 8 with 4364 views | TheResurrection | I'd stick with the 5 as I honestly feel VdH is a useful attacking weapon, so is Mawson actually. VdH is one of the few players who can genuinely "place" a pass. He's got a dink in him. They've obviously got more licence to break into midfield as well and with our new tactics now of flexible awareness ie if one goes forward another keeps an eye on the void slot, then I think it's worked for us well. Martinez' sides did the same thing. It's a total football thing. That's why I liked Naughton going into centre half against Notts County, as Laudrup did something similar with Ki against Bradford. We were 3 at the back Tuesday night no matter what Keown thought, it's just that Roberts and Narsingh were so advanced we could afford to leave just the 3 there, instead of the 5, for most of the game. I'd go with.... ........................... Fab................................ .......... VdH........ Fede .......... Mawson.... Naughton...................................... Olsson .... Carroll...... ....... Ki..................Clucas.... ................... Dyer...... Jordan Ayew........ I think Carroll has earned a start and then really decent options off the bench in King, Tammy, Narsingh, Andre Ayew etc Big game... Another one!! | ![](/images/avatars/21041.gif) |

Team v Burnley on 15:52 - Feb 8 with 4169 views | AustinIsOurHero | I would imagine he will revert to the 5 at the back & based on his performance against Notts County, Bartley can consider himself unlucky if he's back on the bench. I would like to see Connor Roberts in for Naughton, but it won't happen. | ![](/images/avatars/14674.gif) |

Would be my team too. Feel it's easier to try and change the game up a notch if we're not getting chances to break through, rather than to start too open and allow them to sneak a first half goal. Tom C in for Fer and Tammy on for Nathan at 60mins if it's still 0-0. | ![](/images/avatars/8783.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) | Login to get fewer ads

My preference, depending on how the game was going, of course, would be to bring on Andre first and Tammy only if we're still needing a goal towards the end. | ![](/images/avatars/21041.gif) |

Team v Burnley on 20:06 - Feb 8 with 3750 views | monmouth | Really not sure what the hell I would choose. I suspect Carlos will do back 5 with Mawson Fernandez and Olsson back in. Ayew J and Dyer up front and Ki, Clucas and Carroll in the midfield. Ayew A, King and Abraham will be on the bench. Abraham might start for Dyer, or both will play with a back 4. So much the same as those above. Should have looked and saved myself some typing. [Post edited 8 Feb 2018 20:08]

Don't think he'll start Tammy after what he said today. Think he sees him as a work in progress. | ![](/images/avatars/21041.gif) |

It was Jonathan Pearce who hinted, during his commentary, of a possible problem with J Ayew. Haven't heard it from anywhere else. I think Carlos said in his presser that both AK and AA are ready to go. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Agree with expecting of Dyer. I'd put Clucas for Carrol on left and Dyer on right. He's just coming into form and we need pace. | ![](/images/avatars/19385.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |
