Im assuming we will be playing 4-5-1 again next week. Personally i would like to see Yann up top for 60 minutes and Fuller on for 30 to provide a cutting edge as their defence tires. Who would you have starting as a lone striker?
You mean 4-4-2 ? We've really not looked great with anything but 4-5-1 this season and I think Palace would walk straight through us without the extra man in midfield.
Oh, and Yann. He deserves it for the performances he put in the last few games, we know what we're getting with Yann - Fuller's too hit and miss for this one.
Fuller has a goalscorer's instinct of having a go whenever he's sees a chance.. From where i sit, Yanns more a wing man..I'd play fuller from the start, if Haynes isn't available...and bring yann on later
Keep it as it is, sounds like we had a terrible last 15 minutes but we no today's result will make a number of our players angry, stick to the system that has gained us 3 wins out of 4 and hope the players take out that anger on Palace.
I would go with fuller as much as I love yann I believe fuller is more suited to playing upfront alone as he is more able to create an opening for his self by running at the defence
Exactly the same as you Lewy. As I opened the thread I thought, Kermorgant to give them the run-around for an hour then put Fuller on for a touch of class when they get knackered.
Start with Yann every time - much more agressive and committed, Fuller doesn't make the most of his height or size - after this week's ultra conservative surrender of 3 points I'd prefer to start with both giving them strict instructions about who and what to cover when we haven't got the ball.
I would keep the same starting 11, except Cort for Taylor and as much as I hate to say it, Wiggins if fit for Ceddy. I would consider changing it around if we kept hoofing to Yanns head instead of playing to his feet so he can bring players in. Fuller for last 15-20 mins. If losing with 15-20 to go 4-4-2 with Fuller and BWP up top.

I'd bring Cort back into the team though.

Wouldn't change the formation and its working for us away from home
Impact sub maybe.
