McGree/Ramsey/Forss conundrum

Thought Ramsey was poor 1st half today but scored the 1st and set up the 2nd in the 2nd half.

I thought McGree was excellent coming off the bench and for me he has to start, as I feel when he's on form he's the player who makes us tick, but I prefer him to start wide left.

Forss always seems to perform well when he starts wide right at home. So what do we do?

I don't think you can drop Ramsey after his 2nd half performance so I'd go Ramsey on the right and McGree on the left vs Norwich.
 
I'd have dropped Ramsey for McGree, thought he was poor against Burnley and poor in the first half, but he was vital in the second half today and you've got to reward that.
 
Might controversial but could it be team
Inclusion clause regards archer and Ramsey.

As these do happen esp in our league.
 
Forss keeps the shape but doesn't really get at the full back or beat a man too often. I don't mind what Carrick does (rotating, changing the right and left midfielder around). Personally, I'd go with Ramsey and Mcgree, but Forss isn't the worst option to have.
 
Both Mcgree and Ramsey are not as effective playing on the right hand side, and when they start together there are constantly swapping sides.
Not sure why they struggle but they both want to play on the left.
If I had to choose between Mcgree or Ramsey, then I would pick Ramsey, when he's on it , he is unplayable, within 8 mins tonight he scored a great goal and had an assist for the 2nd.
Harsh on Mcgree but he would be a good option from the bench. Forss is better than both of them on the right hand side.
 
I would always start

…………………………..Archer…………………………..

McGree…………………..Akpomb…………………Forss

Harsh on Ramsey, but It was serving us so well before.

Forss and McGree offer more out of possession imho, so that swung it against Ramsey, just.
It isn't very often that I agree with you coluka but this is one of those times.
 
Forss up top, McGree and Ramsey flanking Akpom, and interchanging.
That said, it’s easy for us fans to request formations etc but I’m sure management and coaches have tried all combinations and decided what *should* work best is the one they pick.
