I believe we should change the formation for the two away games

Pants

Zabba Kompany Demechelis Clichy

Navas Toure Fernandhino Milner

Nasri

Negredo

I would give Sergio a rest for this game. Play Nasri as the most forward midfield player, with Yaya assisting him and Ferny sitting in front of the back four.

I believe we should play our strongest defence whenever possible. This is one part of the team that we should stop rotating, unless it is because of injury.

West Brom are a decent side but they are beatable and even if it is a scrappy win that will still give us something to work on away from home.
They seem tougher to beat away from home than at home
No excuses strongest eleven and we win this.
 
Someone has mentioned in another thread but the way we've been playing counter attacking football at home isn't by fault but design, someone away is about to get a pasting, the way west brom set up at home could be the perfect fit, win that comfortably, which IMO we will, Southampton could be the defining moment when looking back in may......

2 wins and we'll be hard to stop from here on in, personally I always thought December would be when we push on!!!!

That's right. We are struggling with our away for, so lets rest probably our best player.
No wonder you're called mad ;-)

There is no harm in trying out counter attacking football away from home as well. We are 15th in the league based on away matches.

Negredo is perfectly capable of leading the line on his own, and we have plenty of other attacking players who can score.

Playing all your best players doesn't automatically mean you will win. Playing the best system for a particular game gives you the best chance of winning.

As I said I think we need to be more tactically aware away from home and using three midfielders will benefit us IMO

I would rest Aguero and play him against Southampton

No rotation. No messing about. We play our strongest side. We cannot afford not to win this match. We've had the nice luxury of 2 home games. Now we get to see what we're made of.



agreed, we need to win this game. its not the time for shuffling the pack

So we have to better their work-rate with a few tactical tweaks and it is near enough job done.
