The only change that I would make would be Brunt for Burke or Chadli. Burke, probably not quite up to speed yet.
I'd go for:
For me...
Foster
Nyom, Dawson, Evans, Gibbs
Barry, Kryochiak
Burke, Chadli, Phillips
Rodriguez
A bit loathe to drop Brunt as he hasn't done anything wrong and his set pieces are a huge asset. I also think McClean has started the season well and gives us good energy in the middle of the park. Both good options of the bench.
If we started with this team, the players not in the first XI are:
Myhill, Hegazi, Brunt, Livermore, McClean, Robson-Kanu, Rondon, Morrison, McCauley
Now we have a bit of squad depth!

I wonder if TP is going to go with Krychowiak as part of the 3 behind Jay Rod and Livermore being alongside Barry. I do think Krychowiak can play offensively as well as defensively. That would mean Chadli on to the bench in place of Livermore.
Initially though I can also see Chris Brunt on the left of the 3 with Burke on the bench coming on for the last 20 minutes or so. Phillips would revert back to the right side as well.
As you say great to see the depth of the squad this time though and that will become more important as the season progresses.
Dawson can start preparing himself to go to right back again.
Hegazi and Evans at CB with Gibbs at LB.
Barry sitting in front of the back four on his own possibly.
The Pole ahead of Barry in a midfield playmaker/Enforcer type role
Phillips/Chadli/Brunt or Burke playing further up with J Rod as CF would be my choice.
Hard to call mate. I reckon he'll play Dawson at right back. Which is harsh on Nyom.
Midfield is also hard to call. Neither Livermore or Phillips have started well. I ay seen anything of Burke or the Polish bloke.
A Scottish chap at work describes Burke as "An Aldi version of Gareth Bale" While a rep. A Forest STH who comes in says he was gutted when they sold him. He is lightening quick and will be a great signing.
In my earlier post I stated that my team had Nyom at right back and Dawson in the middle, with Evans. I feel it is ***** that Nyom plays as to my mind he has been excellent in these early games. Also, Dawson should now be utilised in his natural position, especially with McCauley still on the sidelines and let's face it, he can't go on for ever! It's nice now, though, to have these options.
Pulis will go for Livermore over Chadli and will have Rodders wide with Rondon up front.
If we play 4-2-3-1 then
Foster
Nyom, Dawson, Evans, Gibbs
Barry, Krychowiak
Phillips, Chadli, J-Rod
Rondon
Subs Myhill, Hegazy, Brunt, Livermore, Burke, McClean, HRK
If 4-1-4-1
Foster
Nyom, Dawson, Evans, Gibbs
Barry
Phillips, Krychowiak Livermore, J-Rod
Rondon
Subs Myhill, Hegazy, Brunt, Yacob, Burke, Chadli, HRK
Bit rough on Hegazy who has performed well, but so have Daws & Nyom. I like JRod on the left & would like Rondon to be given a chance in a now stronger side where he will get more support before dropping him.
