What about that team worries more than what we have seen in our last three or four league games ? Sissoko in CM ? Alli playing like a fart in a trance ? Even Eriksen's caught it.

There's only one player in there who's not got plenty of first team credentials, and could he be any worse in midfield than what we've seen lately ?
If we are going down the youth route then TOB would be a more viable candidate but both yourself and I know that Poch will likely recall Dembele or possibly Sissoko If Winks is still feeling the effects of illness.

None of our attacking options are 'in form' so it's a case of riding this out and grinding out 3 points because the answer to our relative woes don't lie on the bench.

Sissoko, Aurier and Rose should all come in. I think it will be Winks, Trippier and Davies to be dropped. Other than that I expect it to be the same. Watching the highlights from this fixture last year it really is hard to believe its the same group of players.

Don't think Ali should be in the team tonight, shouldn't have an automatic place if he's out of of form especially if another player is performing better, might be the best thing for him as he doesn't seem to have anyone displacing him, Lamela coming back might be just what the lad needs to up his overall game back up. Despite his goals we need 11 players with their head in the game for 90 mins.

Vorm, Foyth, Davies, Skipp, Edwards, Llorente, Sterling
I know, I know, but I think KWP is a right tenacious little busy fucker who could do a really good Kante impression in that CM3, cover the two 8's, win it and give it simple to Winks and Dembele. Better than watching Sissoko or Alli fuck about in there.

Eriksen and Alli need a rest.


Gave you a 'funny' rating but I know where you're coming from. I'd like to see Foyth get a chance and I think he'd do that job pretty well in front of the CBs. I suspect though that Davies will go in at LCB with Rose outside and Dier will go into CM with Dembele if Winks doesn't make it. On the bright side, it could be a cure for my insomnia.
