I like both Calvert and Lewin playing together up front.

I would suggest 4-4-2.

Pickford
Kenny/Holgate-Keane-Williams-Baines
Vlasic/Lennon-Gana/Morgan-Gylfi-Mirallas
DCL/Niasse-Rooney

If it doesn't work, change to 4-2-3-1.

Pickford
Kenny/Holgate-Keane-Williams-Baines
Gana/Morgan-Davies
Vlasic/Lennon-Gylfi-Rooney
DCL/Niasse

Against top 6, 5-3-2.

Pickford
Kenny/Cuco-Keane-Williams-Jagielka/Holgate-Baines
Gana-Morgan
Gylfi
DCL/Niasse-Rooney

Rooney Mirallas

Mirallas is a pretty decent finisher, has pace and can beat a man... I would use Rooney in the changing room..

How much longer is that yard dog, imitation Welsh tosser, Williams going to get !!

He's dog pooh !!

Will Escott · October 4, 2017

Pickford

Kenny Holgate Keane Baines

Vlasic Davies Gueye Lookman

Calvert Lewin Rooney

Gueye would sit deeper than Davies and Rooney (Or Sigurdsson) would probably be just behind DCL.

Can we sneak 15 players on the pitch to accommodate our 3 no 10s and play wingers as well?lol

The only way to do this would be play 5 at the back and play a false '9'

----------------- Pickford ----------------
------Keane --------Jags ------ Holgate
Martina ----------------------------------- Baines
--------------------- Gueye ---------------------
Vlasic ------------- Klassen ---------------- Sigurdsson
-------------------- Rooney --------------------------------

This is also my current line of thinking. I've been picking potential XI's for weeks and I'm at the point now where I feel that there's little use even trying to speculate. Every team we put out from hereon in will be scared to play regardless.

That said, I'm going to throw a 'future XI' out there once again based on current form, balance, and the prospect of certain players returning from injury sooner rather than later:

Pickford

Coleman - Keane - Funes Mori - Baines

Davies - Schneiderlin

Bolasie - Sigurdsson - Vlasic

DCL

There's still an issue with goals here though. There'd be room to wriggle Niasse in there in a front two later on in a game and maybe introduce Rooney to up sit up as well. Coleman/Bolasie and Baines/Vlasic down the sides is important I feel, as is pairing Davies with Schneiderlin as I feel that, in hindsight, they'd compliment each others strengths more than a Davies/Gana partnership would.
