Pope Trippier Lascelles Schar Burn Longstaff Bruno Joelinton Almiron Wilson Gordon Think we will see the changes against Man Utd in the cup.
Howe will either make all the changes v Man Utd or he will split it between this and Man Utd..Arsenal home and Dortmund away he will want to play our strongest possble team in both.
Spot on for me - bench is starting to look a little thin as we pick up more injuries. Dubravka, Krafth, Dummet, Target, Anderson, Miley, Willock Livarmento, Hall. Hopefully Botman is back soon as we need him back in CB. Maybe Man U in the cup he'll get some mins? Tonali still not banned? Get him in from the start!# Oops - https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/67201451 Tonali banned 10 months
Lascelles is an absolute liability he gets dragged out of position regularly and always wants to peddle backwards... he's being carried by trippier who he passes to in tight areas and he gets us out the **** almost every time. Cb needed more urgently than any other position imo
It's always the better players the likes of lacelles and Longstaff are always available.. they don't do anything skilful enough to challenge their muscles.
Couldn't be worse timed really! Next 7 weeks look like hell: Wolves Man U (cup) Arsenal Dortmund Bournemouth Chelsea PSG Man U Everton Spurs Milan The only consolation is that Wolves, Bournemouth and Everton are the only games you expect to win in that run. Everything else is really tough and draws will be decent results.
Thanks for the warning. So I'll log back on to the forum in January. Have a great Christmas everyone.
Enjoy the struggle mate it was always going to be a case of going backwards to go forwards after last season's false dawn.
