We need somebody on the bench who is a game changer. I think Edwards is the best person to provide a moment of inspiration in a crisis.

Aim to rest Lamela, Dier, Eriksen and Dembele for CSKA. Take Alli and Janssen off after an hour if we're ahead

And bird on the seen yet mate?

Na mate, I've got about £15k saved thanks to not really having a life or a girlfriend over the past couple of years so I'm thinking of spending £200 on a really really good escort.

I'm going to assume Rose isn't fit, as Poch took Davies off early on Wednesday. Lamela played 90, so he will probably be rested for CSKA. I think he may rest Dier and Dembele if both are not fully fit.

Lloris
Walker - Toby - Verts - Davies
Wanyama - Dembele
Sissoko - Alli - Son
Janssen

or

Lloris
Walker - Toby - Verts - Davies
Wanyama - Alli
Sissoko - Eriksen - Son
Janssen
I would like to see Sissoko given a CM role. So:

Lloris
Walker - Toby - Verts - Davies
Wanyama - Sissoko
Eriksen - Alli - Son
Janssen

If Dier or Dembele have not recovered fully, my XI

Lloris
Walker, Toby, Jan, Davies
Wanyama, Winks
Lamela,Alli,Son
Janssen

Very difficult to leave out Eriksen - but Son & Lamela have done enough to keep their place ahead of him IMO.

Think you may need to redefine your idea of a really good escort if your budget is only £200!!

I watch a fair bit of Boro as married to a Teessider (both going tomorrow in separate ends!). I'm confident of a steady win if we take them seriously. Their biggest threat is set pieces so we need the big lads playing (not one for Winks).

George Friend also struggles a lot with pace, so Sissoko has to start on the right for me.

They will try and keep it tight and nab one and they are good defensively, so need to get one first half and open them up.

You can probably pick up an old XR3i for about 200 quid.

Has anything been said on Rose, I saw him in training pictures, but assume that we'll save him for the crucial CL game.

Very difficult to start Winks "ahead" of Eriksen for a PL match.

Not sure for this Saturday but was thinking that Edwards would be good to have on the bench for home games sometimes- the type of games where we struggle to get through the packed defence of some average team- he would be good to bring on in the 80th minute if we were stuck at 0-0 to find an opening.
