Because its never too early to get ready for the season...
I think everyone who starts for us against United are already on the squad. We may sign one or two players before then, but I don't think they will be integrated enough to start the opener.
Lloris
Trippier Alderweireld Vertonghen Rose
Alli Bentaleb
Lamela Eriksen Chadli
Kane
Lloris - I think its a minor injury and he will be ready for the season opener.
Trippier/Walker - could go either way here, no idea of Walker's fitness
Alli/Mason - I think Mason is ahead of Alli, and if he is fit would start, but Mason is still rehabbing, and Alli is getting good reviews from training.
Lamela - this might be close - not sure when he is due back, but I think if he comes back next week, he still starts ahead of Townsend
Kane - he could come back on August 7 and still start...
