100% would start Llorente.

Law of averages suggests every now and then the ball will bounce off his trampoline-like body in a goal-wards direction (see Chelsea match for example).Why?
Because I’m a miserable sod trapped in eternal optimism surrounding Spain’s over the top strikers, and I don’t see the point in getting him through the initial phase of being back in 1st tier matching without reaping the rewards of him having a series of minutes under his belt.Why?
We looked much better in the back three against Chelsea in the 2nd half. I don’t really think the shape was the problem against Palace, it was the personnel.Do we need to play three at the back? We never look as good in that shape.
Just play a flat back four.
Also Doucouré might not be available for them. Big plus if that's the case.
We looked much better in the back three against Chelsea.
If Rose starts I would play three the back and try and get him as high up as possible, with Eriksen tucked in that side. Those two playing off each other are our best hope of creating something at the minute.
Next three games are at home. Must win them all as our schedule gets tough shortly after.
I still think if Rose is fit, giving him license to get forward is our best bet at the moment.True enough against Chelsea.
I do think Son changes our attacking dynamic though. Him and Eriksen have to take the mantle of producing the end product here.
Its on Bein Sport (Based in Dubai with Arabic commentating). That's what I will be watching!Is this game on tv anywhere, I can’t find it on BT or Sky?
My thoughts exactly!I genuinely cant believe people are still putting Llorente into their teams. Fuck me.
The problem being is the fact that a lot of games we’ve done better in the second half, why do we keep setting up wrong?We looked much better in the back three against Chelsea in the 2nd half. I don’t really think the shape was the problem against Palace, it was the personnel.
