I hope we play 451 on Sunday. Obertan and HBA on the wings to make a 433 on attack and cabaye pushing forward too. Perch and Jonas DCM.

Fergie over Obertan on the wing and I'd agree with you. Cisse upfront if Ba's not fit enough.

I agree with that, but without Jonas. He is lost in there. Play Bigi, Cabeye and perch.

Agree to above Defo for me 4 51 without 433 with , simples

Marveaux anyone??

Because 451 worked so well against everton didnt it, with a full squad sll playing well like were last season i partly agree, although id give benny, ba nd cisse licence to rotate and play freely, but if were not playin that well and not having tiotes destructive powers we need to get the basics right first. Krul- simmo, tays, collo, santon- benny, cabs, perch, jonas, cisse, shammy. Lots of attacking options as well as the choice to control the flow of play with shola slowin it down

Bigi and perch as 2 dcm is to inexperienced. with jonas in there it helps balance it out. i think he'll grow into that role and prob play there more over the season.
Obertan needs run of games like at start f last season, he gets too much stick and he's actually really effective with and without the ball.

Don't get to wrapped up in formations it's only 451 when we LOOSE the ball . When we have good retention should be 433 . It's just stops us getting out numbered in c mid ! As most teams now play a version of 433 .
