But we also played a weird diamond infront of back 3 earlier in season. Essentially bielse 3331. Anyway I think the main point is we are much more flexible this season than in previous. I think previously our 4231 was much more rigid. Actually think this has cost us a bit defensively this season, we are a bit more open.

Losing Wanyama and Alderweireld has also probably cost us a fair bit defensively too.

Really hope Winks can shake his injury, can’t be nice for him to still be dealing with it after so many months.

He still hasn't recovered from injuring it last season has he?

Rest I suspect is the answer. Lets hope its not going to cause him problems for a long time.

Different injury to Burnley last season. Was from Palace game just before international break.

Poch has apparently said if Toby scan is fine today he'll join in with some parts of training tomorrow, and might be fit for FA Cup match.

No way does Son deserve to get dropped once Toby is back, interesting to see how Poch plays it as Verts and Sanchez have been very good recently too.

So who gets dropped when Toby returns? Tough decisions
It’s not tough for me, in a back four Toby and Jan are our number one CB pairing so it Sanchez who is currently our number 3 gets droppedIs Is he better in a back three trio than Dier, probably so Dier go’s back into rotation for a MF position and back up CB.
