Effectively gone if they don’t win on the weekend. With us playing Southampton next week, they wouldn’t be able to catch both of us.
Would make the game against them a lot easier if we’re still battling it out with Southampton and/or Huddersfield |  | | |  |

Did you post that on the wrong thread? It was about Stoke having nothing to play for on the last day if they don’t beat Palace.
Either way, 532 isn’t negative in itself, it can be quite attacking, but that requires the wingbacks to play as wingbacks rather than fullbacks. We’ve had a tendency to play them too deep in away games IMO. | | | |

Indeed.
With the right players at wing back it's a very attacking formation and is often referred to as three at the back. |  |

Stoke would love to send us down.
They hate the Welsh ( with the exception of Joey I presume) |  | | |

I was out with a couple of Stoke fans on Friday, they are resigned to going down.
Contrary to the myths on here, they don't give a f*ck about us, one way or the other. They are no different to our fans singing anti english stuff. Us being Welsh is just an element for them to have a go at us for. They do hate cardiff mind. |  |

If there's a god, we will be safe and relegate the kunts. Bye bye...to the rugby team. | | | |

I don’t think it can work out like that (may be wrong).
As far as I see it, if we are already safe by then, they are already gone. | | | |

That last place is out of us Saints & Huddersfield IMO.
I'm hoping for a happy train trip home from Bournemouth Saturday | | | |

I think if they beat Palace and we only pick up a point before we play em....it's all on that. With eyes on Huddersfield/Saints games. | | | |

They liked Pulis for a long time.
Robbie James, John Mahoney and Mickey Thomas too. | |

It could easily be a ‘cup final’. I read your post as us being safe going into the game | | | |

They will beat Palace could have done with Leicester getting something at Palace to keep them interested..
We need to be on 36 points before we play Stoke unless they batter us last game then won't be able to catch us.
They maybe able to catch Southampton or Huddersfield though if they don't get to 36 before the final day.
Huddersfield have City and Chelsea away so will likely still be on 35.
I fancy Southampton to get at least a point at Everton our game against Southampton is our biggest since we got to the PL I think. | |

You do realise that five at the back isn't always a defensive line up I assume? |  | | |

I'm fine with the 5 at the back, plays to what limited strengths we have but when (particularly at the Liberty) on top of the 5 we add Ki, King & either Clucas or Carroll in the middle 3 we are left with 2 possible goal scorers - once we then go behind it's like climbing Everest with our legs tide together & wearing a blindfold!!
If we stick with the 5 at Bournemouth we need to be more positive further forward - I know that's very difficult with our squad but we need to favour both Ayews, Tammy, Narsingh & Dyer (at least 3 of those starting) with maybe Clucas & King in central roles. | | | |

to play 5 at the back and look half tidy going forward we need speedy fullbacks ,confused .com,It's a formation that will always struggle to get goals unless you have that vital ingredient ,as we've already found out this season,it's Bournemouth not Man c | |

We’ve played 5 at the back, invariably with Naughton and Olsson in almost every game under Carlos | | | |

Well no, he’s been here half a season. If he’d been here since August and got the same number of points per game we’d be nowhere near danger | | | |

Indeed. We scored 4 against West Ham and 3 against Arsenal when playing 5 at the back.
If we can get the right players to play wing back in the summer it’s the way to go in my opinion. It becomes 3 5 2 when we have the ball and can be very attacking. | |

Hindsight ,plus i'd have given up on them a long time ago ,It's horrible to watch and most certainly not entertaining for any fan ,IF we stay in the prem Carlos will morph into another Clem and then another shyte season beckons ,I can't take much more of this hideous style of footy | |
