Go with a 4-3-3 now please.

 

                Krul

Danny Willi Colo  Santon

 

                Tiote

      Cabaye      Jonas

 

HBA                      Cisse

                Ba

 

:aww:

 

Can Jonas play in central midfield? if he can then i totally agree with your line up although i reckon Ba is more likely to be outwide than Cisse.

 

Minhosa's looks even better  :D

Thoughts on this:-

 

                          Krul

 

NEW RB Williamson    Colo    Santon

                 

        Cabaye    Tiote    Jonas

                   

                        HBA

           

          Cisse                  Ba

                       

With the fullbacks bombing on (as Santon looks very capable of).

 

That's the line up I would've picked. For the small amount of goals and assists Jonas gets I'd rather see him operating in a more defensive role, which he's excelled at this season. That gives us a great midfield three who have a great work rate and are all good passers and ball winners and that forward three looks immense

That was kind of my thought...............we aren't really the type of side who whip balls into the box from traditional wingers and hopefully the attacking fullbacks would be able to press the defending fullbacks if we get Santon MK2 for the other side.

 

Very solid core, very creative outlet in HBA and two lethal forwards. Happy days.

Yes, am 100% sure Jonas would do a perfect job as a CM. Has all the right attributes.

Agree that Minhosa`s looks good, but i am afraid it will be to narrow.

But then again, i am no expert :lol:

I love Jonas, but his end product at times can be really really frustrating. I've lost count of the amount of times he's played a cross too early or he's held on to it for too long and lost it plus his shooting leaves a lot to be desired, but when he does score it's usually something special and worth waiting for.

 

He'll run and run all day though and you can tell he's totally committed to the cause and with the way this season he's shown he can protect whoever is playing at left back I think he'd be better suited to playing on the left of a three who look to just win the ball and play in that front three with Ben Arfa in a free role behind the front two

True about it being too narrow mind you Ben Arfa and Jonas can easily dift out to the wing to create width it would be a very fluent system imo.

That's basically it, for me. Still not sure if Pardew (or the player himself) is convinced about Ben Arfa on the wing like.

Simpson. Taylor.  Colo.  Santon

 

              Tiote

Ben arfa                    Ba

Harper, Willi, guthrie, abeid, marveaux , best, shola/ sammy

 

Great signing in kiss well done to mike derek etcThe finishing and quality of the front three is immense. If you were playing against them you would have to try and stop the supply at all costs because it is lethal. We need a decent promising cb and then if we managed cissokho (dreaming i know)as well as not selling any decent players what a January!

Looking at our squad-sheet now, how far my opinion has come on since the start of the season is staggering. I remember thinking without Nolan and Barton we were thin and relying on unproven players. Now I look at the squad and think we have a very decent, young team with plenty of industry but also flair. I even have loads more faith in our young players coming through the ranks.

 

This is the cue for it all to go wrong isn't it?

Yep, agreed. Would still like an upgrade at right-back - someone strong enough to deal with wingers on their own without needing Ben Arfa to track back too much.

I still prefer 4-5-1/4-3-3 with the personnel we have in midfield (We have no talented player who is a traditional winger). It is difficult to stick both of the Senegalese in such a formation, though, so we will have to persist with two strikers in all likelihood.

you could go with ba/cisse up front and ben arfa allowed to drift off them so like a 3 up front but very mobile.
