I reckon it will be as you state but with Wimmer alongside Wanyama and Alii pushed in alongside Eriksen and Son. I do however get worried about Alli getting easily wound up in these sorts of games.
Why would he play Wimmer alongside Wanyama when Poch has never done that?

Because Dier is not available and Poch normally goes for two really solid lumps in front of the back four in away games and preferably one that can drop back into the defence when necessary. We are going to be up against it tonight and I just think he might want to keep it really tight, but we'll see.

With all this nonsense about Russian hooligans you have to wonder why Russia are even allowed in European football? They are the pariahs of international sport anyway with all their doping, isnt it night time we all just drew a line in the sand and told them to fuck off.

I couldn't agree more, I said in a thread in general football last year that we should boycott their WC, because of their invasion of Ukraine and the open racism that exists in the country, but was shot down on here by a few posters. What they are now doing in Syria is an added reason why FIFA and UEFA should act. This is all in addition to the fact it has been pretty much proven that they bought votes. I don't normally agree that sport should be used in politics, but there are cases such as this and apartite in South Africa when it becomes necessary for the rest of the world to say enough is enough.

It's good to see, or hear, that, so far, nothing nasty has happened to any of our fans over there, unless I've missed something.

I do agree with this in many ways - what they are doing in Syria right now is absolutely shameful.

Yeah, really disgusting. Its not like Britain has ever joined forces with one of its allies and bombed the hell out of another country for no good reason! Bloody shameful Russian.

Dont remember Britain purposely targetting an Aid convoy or a countries water supply, at least not in my lifetime.

You say that but I am hearing there is wide scale agg planned for the home game with pepole from all over the country coming down to have a go at the Russians. Hopefully this doesn't materialise.

Not suprised in the slightest but it will just be London based clubs.
