How will we line up against Watford and Burnley (and what will that mean)?

Will Allardyce line up against Watford and Burnley away in the same style as the away games against Bournemouth and West Bromwich? If he does is that justified? Would 2 points from those games be a good return?

Hoof. Defend. Hoof. Defend.

I would like to see that, but my money is on Gana and Schneiderlin in the middle and DCL up front. Hope I'm wrong.

West ham have just beaten Watford, so he'll study how they did it line up like they did.

Should be same lineup as yesterday. Go at these teams around and below us.

Think you're right. 5 at the back, Gana and the boo magnet, Bolassie and Walcott with DCL / Niasse up top. Sam seems to have the mistaken belief Bolassie offers pace on the break. Wrong, he's like Ossie now.

Set up to hoof and hope they miss all their chances like Leicester and Palace did. The Allardyce way

Do you think he will, though?

..I think two points would be a very good return. Watford’s result yesterday surprised me, they have looked decent this season, not least at Goodison. Burnley have been in the upper reaches all season.

Obv he'll put Schneiderlin in from the start.

What about 1 point then?

Edit: Burnley haven't won a game since the 12th December. They have drawn a lot though.

...I wouldn’t settle for anything but they are two very difficult matches.

We should be trying to win them though, surely. Burnley haven't won a game in two months and Watford are incredibly inconcistent.
