    No Cedric or Bertrand, and not sure how the midfield will line up


    Lots of Qs to be answered

    Cedric and Bertie are not available for this match apparently.

    If Austin can stay sharp.and in the box, Redmond could set up quite a few.

    Bet Charlie only plays first half at most. Gabi on at halftime

    Not sure what the formation is though. 4-3-1-2? 4-4-2 diamond? Hopefully it's not 4-3-3, with Armstrong stuck out wide and Charlie isolated.

    Let's face it, Charlie got the gig today because he scored the other night.

    Romeu and Hojbjerg does allow Lemina to get further forward, which is where he looks more dynamic and involved in the game (e.g. WBA away last year).

    Wouldn't be against the idea of the diamond in midfield either

    And to be fair, it's Cardiff. We should have the majority of the ball against Cardiff. And when Cardiff do have the ball, it won't be by passing it around their back line.

    I don't mind Charlie playing in this sort of game.

    I'm happy that Romeu's inclusion did not break up Pierre and Mario.

    Interesting team - looks like he’s trying to shore things up first off by protecting the porous defence.
