I agree but not that I agree (make sense?)Pretty sure the team will be:
Lloris
Walker
Toby
Jan
Rose
Bentaleb
Mason
Dembele
Eriksen
Chadli
Kane

Well, I disagree.
The formation doesn´t say anything about how attacking we are. For high pressing and (very) attacking wing backs, I think it makes sense to balance the midfield with a destroyer - especially against Stoke.
Bentaleb and Dembele will also have more freedom to press/roam when they have cover.

I would say your probably spot on with anticipating what Poch will do.
Think it'll be a game where our in game tactics and substitutions will be crucial and I'd like to see Alli, Pritchard and Lamela introduced - interesting to see the dynamic with these players too.
This makes sense to me.. However you forgot Trippier, he will most certainly be on the bench at least (Still expect him to become first choice at some point in the season.Yep I think that will be the team. Also agree that the subs bench will be interesting, I'd like to see exciting and attacking subs and variety on the bench, even without a striker.
Something like:
Vorm.
Dier - Covers RB, CB and could shore up midfield if needed.
Davies - LB and CB in emergency if Dier is needed elsewhere.
Alli - CM offers energy/legs.
Carroll - CM/AM passer.
Pritchard - Left side cover. Flair option.
Lamela - Right side cover. Flair option.

If I could I'd put Dier next to Mason and drop Bentaleb to the bench. This adds more balance + Nabil looks well off the pace at present.
Lloris
Trippier Alderweireld Vertonghen Rose

Lamela Pritchard. Eriksen

The atmosphere won't be the greatest but I haven't sat in that part of the West Stand so don't want to comment on the view. Unless you're behind the pillar though, I have never encountered a seat that gives a poor view of the pitch-because of the closeness to the pitch and size of the stadium...
I'm sure given the amount of people on here though, someone has sat/sits there that can advise...
