I hope Clark is in a midfield 3

Think it's 3-4-1-2.

Me too. Oh dear. No experience + no system = no points, match after match.

To be fair, it was working well until the Chelsea game.

It's flexible.

Clark could play in a 3/5 at the back or in midfield. I think it makes us more solid and with Lowton and Bennett going forward it hopefully makes us stronger going the other way too.

Time will tell but I'd also say that having Vlaar back is worth an awful lot, he's a good captain.

I'm thinking a 1-2 win is coming.....

I really hoped we would go for a more solid looking 4-3-3 with Bannan, Westwood and Delph together in the centre, Benteke up front and Gabby and Weimann out wide. Andi must be ill or injured to not be in the 18 but I would have gone with Holman rather than N'Zogbia.

Having Ron back is huge.

I also reckon Bent will come off the bench and do something of note.

To be honest, they all need to step up on recent evidence.

Well yeah but I'm looking at the experienced players. The midfield is a major issue.

Turning off until Motd. Not going to know the score.
Least I'll only be miserable from half ten onwards.
