Using Nordt as a DM means if we are under the kosh he can slip into that back 3 so Reid shift over to help Fernandes out however going forward, as I would expect us to dominate this game, it releases Noble and Obiang to push forward along with Cress/Fernandes. I wouldn't mind Kouyate in Nordt's position if he's fit and ready or if he replaces Noble for a more dynamic midfield.

Absolutely

[Phil S]

if we sit on our arses and make no noise we stand a good chance of losing

get behind the team, they need us

[HammerMan2004]

Throw everything at the c****.

[My_Sobriquet]

Antonio has to start and as some type of forward. 7 goals in 14 games in the league is right up there with the best. Works hard, runs the channels, pressures defenders. He is a great forward, play him up there

[only1post]

Away from home this season Burnley have got just 1 point from 6 games, scoring just one goal.
They also lost away in the League Cup to Accrington without scoring.
Apart from the right back (we ain't got one) and maybe the keeper, none of their players would make our starting eleven. They are a Championship team.
We will win this.

[smuts]

Absolute must win.

Enough is enough with the mistakes from Randolph. We can't keep saying if it wasn't for his mistake blah blah blah. Not good enough. Ogbonna aswell my patience has finally run out for me. Shame we have to waste the talents of Kouyate by having him centre half, as I think our midfield has missed his drive a little bit. Not to mention he can chip in with a goal. But no Collins and Oxford has only just returned. I feel bad we have had to keep messing Fernandes around. But he is probably the best we could probably go for in that position. Please play Payet in his strongest position behind the striker Slav. Lanzini is still dangerous and influential out wide. Plus he'll support both fullbacks, IF Carroll is fit start him. If not start Fletcher and bring Carroll off the bench.

[Rocketron]

I'd rather Fletcher than Ayew from what I've seen so far.

[ageing hammer]

I'd rather Fletcher than Ayew from what I've seen so far.

Ayew certainly isn't looking like a 20 million player right now

[Row X]

Adrian must start.

That is my only requirement of the team selection.

Randolph is not good enough, decent back up, but not enough to be a starter in this league. There is a reason why Birmingham ran his contract down.

Have you watched Adrian this year?

Hoping for:

-------------------Randolph--------------------
Nordveit--Reid--Ogbanna---Cresswell
--------------------Obiang-----------------------
Antonio--Fernandes--Lanzini----Payet
---------------------Carroll-----------------------

This is assuming that Carroll is fully fit. If not than put Fletcher up top and than bring Carroll off the bench for the last 30 minutes.

Of course if Kouyate is back I expect to see the 3-4-3 with Lanzini, Payet, and Fletcher up top and Obiang and Noble partnered in mid-field.
