If he’s going to play a 4-4-2, sure.

If he’s going to revert back to the 3-4-2-1 or whatever he played against Woolwich, it’s got to be Richy at the front and Solanke on the bench. Solanke cannot play as one of the 10s or whatever that formation is trying to accomplish.
I'm hoping he plays a back three of Dragusin/Danso & Micky vdV sweeping, Porro & Souza as wing backs and Pape Sarr/ Simons/Bissouma (or Pahlinha) in the middle with Solanke & Richarlison upfront feeding on crosses or through balls.

3-5-2 / 3-4-1-2

Still another game to go, but as soon as he gets the opportunity to play Romero and VDV in a 2, that should be the formation, that's always our best team.
 
Momentum and desire to stay up. 7 of those ten aren't against the top 3 and those are where they will likely pick up some results. Three wins is doable for them in their remaining games. They are way better than us. I should have said i expect them to get 9 more points rather than 3 wins necessarily but it all amounts to the same outcome. If they get nine points that means we need 6 more points to stay up on goal difference (ignoring Forrest) - Who thinks we are getting 6 points? Where from?
I think a lot of folks simply overestimating the clubs around us and giving them 3 points against any old side that isn’t a big club. Reality is they will likely drop quite a few points in those other 7.

I think we need 5 points to be fairly sure we’re safe but to your point, I have no idea where those 5 are coming from. We’re comfortably the worst side the league at present.
 
They put up a fight against the good teams. They were very unlucky against Liverpool last week. We're much, much worse than them.
We are the worst side in the league at the moment, I’m not disputing that.

West Ham also lost to Forest and Wolves back to back not that long ago. They’re in the bottom 3 for a reason. I think it’s more likely they revert back to shit than it is they just push on and pick up points at European calibre level.

Problem is, them reverting back could still relegate us with the way we’re playing.
 
I watch the teams below us and see that they are complete shit. But......they play intervals of decent football. We don't. Spam have a much better chance of nicking undeserved points.

West Ham can score goals.

This Spurs team do not score goals or create enough chances to win games.

When Spurs do score enough goals to win a game the undropable goalkeeper makes an 'error' to let the opposition win anyway.
 
If we go down there won’t be a plan in place for either a manager or reshaping the squad, this club is run by muppets.

Minimum of a two year stay but likely much longer.
