If we get him back playing well regularly it can only help.

There was a move in the second half when he played the ball into Weimann and went past him to pick up the lay off.

I sat there and thought that was exactly what had been missing from our play this season.

And indeed Lowton's play when he's been in the team. If he's returning to form it would be very welcome in time for the Christmas pile-up.

Absolutely.

My imagination went on to see a partnership between him and Albrighton that could work really well, as his overlapping would make space for Marc to pick his cross

Albrighton played well rnough to keep his place for the Stoke game.  And the midfield was poor enough that Delph will come back in and Bacuna should also get a run in the centre.

When is Vlaar out until? If ages, I agree with that team John.

Possibly a touch overloaded on the right, with Lowton, Bacuna & Albrighton all running the right wing.

Hopefully Bacuna would be allowed to play as an orthodox central midfielder and not be allotted a 'side', as Lambert has mysteriously done to Sylla recently.

Shame about the Gabster, but Weimann has a point to prove and has played his best this season when in Gabby's position on the left, cutting in towards goal onto his right foot.

Please God let it be Bacuna, Delph and Westy in the middle, I'm fed up of KEA and Sylla this season.  Front 3 is more difficult, I think on balance I'd play Weimann Benteke and Kozak.

Was disturbed to hear Lambo say Herd was set to start against Utd but had a facial injury, I guess Lowton would not have played again if Herd was fit, so I half expect Herd back in for Lowton against Stoke.

Nah he would've gone 3-5-2 with Herd as one of the CBs.  Albrighton was the surprise inclusion.
