Entertaining 2-2 draw Benteke x2 Lukaku, Barkley for them.
Time to bring Lowton back in and push Bacuna into midfield with Delph & Sylla.

UTV!!

Yes and Tonev on the left, need some width and some good balls in the box, Delph and Sylla in the middle

We definitely need more width. At one point in the second half against Spurs Delph had beaten a couple of players then threw his arms out in frustration as there was no-one to pass to. I don't think we're yet sufficiently technically proficient to play narrowly through the middle and we need options out wide.

Unfortunately, deep down, we all know KEA and Westy will be in the middle. With the usual front three. I sincerely hope I will be eating my proverbial hat.

Could do with a morale boosting point at least here

I'd be a bit tempted to go something like:

Guzan - Lowton vlaar Clark Luna - sylla Delph - bacuna gabby Tonev - benteke

That's a bit more natural width than normally, though bacuna gives stability too. Gabby and Tonev can alternate

Go for 3-2, we get 2 more points that way.
