If we allow Kane to join up with England we're a joke. No way would other clubs allow it after him recently missing games because of injury.
One of the hallmarks of the Ferguson era was that his key players would often suffer a minor injury before a meaningless international only to miraculously heal before the next domestic game. Marginal gains before it became a fashionable term

Is Bale going to be fit?

His inclusion could seriously influence our team selection. Real lost to Girona today, and they are going to be seriously 'up for it' on Wednesday. I don't agree that Kane should be left out. If he declares himself fit we must play him. I think if we try to be too clever and keep him back for the Palace and the scum match, it might bite us in the arse as these things sometimes do. The best laid plans etc...

If Kane is fit I don’t think he’d be too impressed to miss out on playing Real at Wembley.

Not sure about Kane, if fit he'll play no doubt.

But, for me Davies must start this over Rose, largely because of the outburst, but also because Davies has been largely epic (relative to previous form) whilst Rose has been out.

I'd be tempted to leave Kane out. Our CL progression won't rest on this game, and we need to make sure he 100% especially coming up to Christmas..
I was thinking the exact same thing. I wouldn't be surprised to see him on the bench but if I was Poch I'd give him the rest of the week to get fit for the League. whether we qualify or not (we should) won't rest on that result.

If Kane is out this game is perfect for Son not Llorente, Real push up and leave acres of space to counter and Son can take advantage of that.

If there's even 1% doubt about Kane he shouldn't be on the field. Thankfully due to our good work this season this is not an absolutely crucial game. It's the sensible decision not to risk him.

Davies and Aurier for Weds, Tripps and Rose for Palace.

When we get injuries and Dier plays too much he gets leggy, as we saw again when we conceded at OT. But I spose he has to play on Weds, alongside the Beast. Winks and Eriksen deeper v Palace.

I'd go Llorente with Alli and Sissoko either side on Weds, and if fit bring Kane back in at the weekend, along with Son.

If you're still with me.

Draw and a win needed to turn the tide of confidence back in our favour...

I'm stuck in fkin Manc at an event for the Real game, don't think the hotel will have BT and the pubs will be showing City, looks like the laptop then....unless anyone might be able to suggest somewhere not too far from Picc station...

Heart over head this game.

Heart says go for it with strongest team, winning group will see an “easier” tie in round of 16 not to mention one of the English teams would have a high chance of drawing Real in the next round.

Head says long season and Sunday is very important so rest players where we can.

If Kane is 100% fit he plays. If he isn't he should not. Who decides? Medical staff and hopefully Harry is honest enough to let them know if he is not 100%. Assuming he is out:

Hugo
Aurier Toby Davidson Verts Davies
Dier Winks
Eriksen Alli
Son

If Dembele was 100% he would get the shout but not sure if he is ready to be honest
