I’m assuming if we finish 3rd in the CL group we go into the Europa League? If that’s the case I’d rather finish 4th. Play a stronger team against Palace.

(4-2-3-1) Vorm; Trippier, Alderweireld, Sanchez, Davies; Dier, Sissoko; Moura, Son, Lamela; Kane

Maybe Winks, maybe Eriksen maybe llorente as subs to come on later. Whatever the setup its not going to be an awesome team. More makeshift than anything else.

Gates gonna be embarrassing. Feel for the players big CL nights infront of half empty Wembley.

We aren't out of it yet. If Barca beat Inter again and we get wins against PSV and Inter then we'll go into the last match day on 7 points vs Inter's 6. Obviously matching or bettering their final result will be extremely difficult but we can't throw in the towel just yet.

It must have been said that Lloris is banned?and it would not be very clever to put Skipp in the side as he has played a total of seven minutes for the first team also no Harry is not even an option in my opinion but there you go everyone has there own view the only one that counts is that of Poch

People writing this off need to have a word with themselves. Until it's mathematically impossible to qualify we need to push on and play like we can qualify because we can.

We can and should beat both PSV and Inter at home and be on 7 points going into the Barca game.
Assuming Barca beat Inter and PSV then they will be top on 15 points and confirmed qualified top.
Inter would be on 6 points going into playing PSV on last day.
There's a decent chance that Barca would rotate their team vs us, at very least not risking likes of Messi and Suarez.
Granted we would need to win there if Inter beat PSV but it's not beyond the realms of possibility that they only draw.
Normally winning in the Nou Camp is highly unlikely but if we know we need to win to qualify then there's no reason we can't do it against an potentially rotated Barca team.

We should go full strength vs PSV, it's on a Tuesday night with Palace on the Saturday evening so plenty of time for recovery.

Gazza
KWP Toby Sanchez Aurier
Eriksen Dier Alli
Lamela Kane Son

We need to be bold so Dier (if fit) the lone holding CM. I'd potentially swap Winks in for Alli or Eriksen but I personally like the idea of going for it and getting an early lead and then bringing on Sissoko & Winks to see it out. KWP and Aurier as both quicker and more athletic to help deal with Lozano's pace.
