Posh pretty much played without a recognised centre forward at Stoke City on Saturday (November 20) and despite dominating possession they went down 2-0 after registering just one goal attempt on target in 90 minutes.
The PT also believes if Posh can play well against free-scoring Fulham with a flat back four, they can do again despite the presence in the home camp of bang in-form forward Ben Brereton-Diaz.
Our team is a 4-2-3-1 formation.
9. HARRISON BURROWS
Burrows and Clarke-Harris have combined for goals in the past. The teenager is a reliable crosser of the ball from the left.
10. SIRIKI DEMBELE
We are convinced Dembele will become a threat further up the pitch and in a central position if he has a big man to feed off.
11. JONSON CLARKE-HARRIS
Posh don't have the passers in the side to free two nimble forwards, but they do have players capable of crossing a good ball into a big man so Clarke-Harris must start.
12. THE SUBSTITUTES
We almost started Conor Coventry (pictured) alongside Norburn to free Taylor into a more advanced midfield role, but that would have meant Dembele staying out wide. Sammie Szmodics and Jorge Grant were far from awful at Stoke, but they've been sacrificed for a change of formation and more direct tactics. If Joel Randall is fit he should be on the bench alongside Josh Knight, Idris Kanu and Blackmore. If a change of shape is required Thompson can move into the middle of a back three so no need for Edwards. Photo: Midlands
