To me, it seems we are going with a 4-1-2-1-2 this season.

So thin we will start with:
---------------------------------------Lloris---------------------------------
KWP--------------Toby---------------------Jan--------------------Rose
--------------------------------Winks---------------------------------------
--------------Sissoko--------------------Ndombele-------------------
-------------------------------Lamela---------------------------------------
--------------------Lucas------------------Kane-------------------------

If he's still with us Eriksen has to play surely, although Poch will have to assess his mental condition.

Don't think Poch will play Ndombele yet, needs to get upto our required fitness levels. Think he will be used as a second half sub in first few games.

Lloris, KWP, Toby, Sanchez, Jan, Davies, Winks, Sissoko, Lucas, Lamela, Kane

We desperately need a couple midfielders in, even then we need to get them upto speed of our system. This is based on the assumption Eriksen leaves, if he doesn't then I guess we slot him in and play 4 at the back instead of 5.

One look at that bench tells you everything you need to know about the state of our squad, faith in youth or another tough transfer window.

No it really doesn't as without injuries and suspensions it would read Dele,Son,Foyth,Dier,Aurier,Sanchez,Davies,Skipp,Wanyama - and that's leaving out Eriksen and/or a replacement for him !

Squad is very good if they are all fit and available. It could be better,sure, but it's very good now and could easily be better still by game day.

It's amazing that the transfer window deadline has been moved to before the season but we're still in the Harry/AVB era of having a thin squad for the first few games:LOL:, Suspension and injuries causing it mostly.

Yeah not ideal but as bad as this is going to sound, i'd expect to beat Villa with any team we put out and then lose to City with any team we put out, so i'm really focused on the games after that - where you'd hope that a) some more players are fit b) some more players have signed and are fit.

Because injuries and suspensions don’t really count as being real.

To an extent but with our full team we could have really given City a game with their failure to improve defensively thus far. Can't help Son and Dele being out though.

I think Skipp has done enough to get a start. Ndombele looks a way off being fit to me.

Oh definitely, i'd have loved to have played City in a couple of months time, with a fully fit squad - we'd give them a game alright.
