Just because I think that Arsenal will come with all their flair players I'd like to see a slightly defensive team. Don't want an open game with lots of space....

Really tricky I think we have to play 3 at back. But to really to do that effectively I want Aurier/ Rose as wing backs. Actually f*** it go 4 at back. Same team Liverpool maybe wanyama for Dier.

Stay compact. Narrow lines.

Frustrate them, nip at them, hassle them, don't let them find any rhythm.

They live off of reverse balls from the edge of the box.

You limit their ability to produce those and don't let them find any rhythm, then you gain a significant advantage against this team if you have weapons to punish them with.

Will be the same team that played Yanited and Pool, with maybe Toby in for Sancez imo. I'd be very surprised if we switch formation, personnel or tactics for this one after the last two league performances.

This one Lamela in centermidfield, granted I have seen much better efforts, so next time I wanna see some Tim Sherwood level of craziness.
He's been there twice already this season.

Why are you comparing Poch to Tim Sherwood?

Trippier
Sanchez
Vertonghen
Davies

Dier
Dembele

Eriksen
Dele
Son

Kane

Subs: Vorm, Aurier, Alderweireld, Rose, Wanyama, Lamela, Moura

Go with the side that has been fantastic last two games, they're playing super football and gelling with ease, why disrupt that.

Thought about Vic, but maybe just leave the big start for him away to Juve.

Sissoko and Llorente not even making the bench for me now.

Now that’s a title contender’s bench (y)

So would I. But I don't pick teams in these threads to guess what poch is gonna do.

Much more interesting to see tactical ideas in these, generally, for me.

Don't know where you're getting that from mate, sorry. I'm fairly confident that Lamela has never played CM at professional level in his life. Maybe on the school playground a couple of times.
