Walcott should be dropped with Idrissa Gueye playing in front of Coleman.

Good one johny but I am serious.

Its Davies that needs to be dropped not Theo mate.

Abit wide of the mark but as he been playing well in u23 team, I'd have Bowler on bench and if we comfortable in 2nd half of Burnley or Brighton game, give him twenty mins or so.

uran why would u play our best holding midfielder on the wing when his 2 biggest weaknesses are passing and shooting, genuine question mate what's your thinking behind it? dentie that's a great shout mate.

Johnny we are very weak defensively down the right we have other players that can play in the midfield. Or then you have to replace Coleman with a proper defending fullback but I am not sure if we have any. Chelsea have made a similar change with Kante on the right side.

kante plays on tge right ov a midfield 3 mate and in my opinion is wasted out there, plus we don't have a jorginho to sit in the middle. I see where your going with this but just my opinion if gana isn't in the heart of the midfield wer getting over run as shown threw his absence against spurs especially his main quality is being distruprive and i would say yea try him out on the right ov a 3 if we had someone else capable of doing his job in the middle.
maybe its something we could try if we played jimmy mc in there today.
I may be mistaken but i think gana played at full back for lille for a spell so playing on the right wouldn't be totally alien to him.

Walcott makes some clever runs that Seamus never picks up on so if anything I would keep him in the side and give Kenny a run at RB.

It was only an opinion, in view of the fact that we all know Coleman is not up to the level in defending or adventurous in attacking at this moment, Walcott is not the one to help out, playing someone like Gueye could help him regain his confidence, or you play a proper defender and Keep Walcott in, Kenny has the same problems as Coleman, we could play MaCathey in the Midfield if fit, This system could also help Davies, we will see what team Marco puts out today but he has to make changes and I am sure he will, Burnley are a strong robust team.

{Ed002's Note - Gueye has never played on the wing at all and as I understand it will soon be gone from the club, assuming he will be back to full fitness. The issue is Silva's lop-sided squad where unless Theo Walcott it seems the only option is to play someone out of position.}
