If both Dicko and Afobe are to play (and I think this is the type of game they should, plus Ken seemed pleased with Dicko's contribution when he came on vs Brighton) then we have a pretty clear best XI when everyone is fit. Clearly Ikeme isn't fit so Kuszczak plays. Very few people would swap from the below with the one possible place up for argument being a choice between Henry and Van La Parra on the right.
-------------------Kuszczak--------------
Iorfa-------Batth------Stearman-----Golbourne
Henry/VLP----Price---McDonald------Sako
-------------Dicko-----Afobe-------------------
Ken really does not need to overcomplicate things. That is our best team for games where we are expected to go out and win, especially at home. So just pick it, please.
