I agree with most but would put Pack in as he is the only one who can seem to pick a pass in midfield

Pack for Bacuna and I'd have to agree.

Pack is awful, so slow.

I still think given the lack of any quality strikers that Hoilett is the best option up front.
Play the three wingers as a front three and let them swap as they want through the game.

Ralls and Bacuna protecting the defence with Tomlin sat in a free role just ahead of them.

What do you mean! Did you not see Flints pass back to play in QPR’s striker for the goal? A lot of the goals we can put down to players not knowing their roles or the structure etc, but this was an individual error. If your excuse for him is we had already lost the game at that point then god help us if we have players pi*sing about when fans have paid hard earned money to watch them perform

agree with the front three however i think imo I'd go bacuna right back with bennet and bacuna allowed to overlap and let pack and ralls sit in with tomlin allowed a free role as you said above so more like a 4231 maybe? whats your view as peltier and nelson cbs?

Peltier is just bang average at this level and just does his job without any frills.
Nelson is not ready mentally yet and is getting caught out quite a lot but masks his poor reading of a game by great recovery tackles. The problem is he hasn't been getting away with it lately. He needs another season to get used to the higher quality players hes against.
