I still believe 4231 is our best formation. Yes we played superbly with the three at the back second half against Spurs. We also played really poorly with three at the back first half against Spurs. Ultimately formation isn't our issue, it's our levels of determination, belief, drive, and heart. When we have those ticking we can fly.
Would have liked Adrian to start, not that Hart has done much wrong though really. Ayew deserves his spot. Fonte and Reid have been pretty good this season IMO, it's the midfield that have let them down. Didn't really want to start Arnie, but I believe this is our best formation, we have a lack of wingers, Ant is clearly playing with an injury, and I feel he's due a class game - could be today. Byram unlucky to lose his place, but Zab is the better RB especially if he comes against Zaha/Townsend.
Have to disagree. 3 at the back has suited us best over the past 12 months. We have 4 decent wing backs and it makes it easier to lay Lanzini behind a front 2.

Surpririsinlgy he's down the middle would've thought Fonte would be there...let's see how it pans out
Noble also guilty of sloppy passing
Two teams who can't afford to lose.

Get in. Good play by Ayew and Cress, clinical finish by Hernandez. Keep it coming West Ham!
