I'd imagine we'll see early subs of Kane, Eriksen and Sissoko considering the schedule ahead of us. I was reading before the game that Sissoko has played 443 of the last 450 minutes so with the injuries we have in the middle of the park we can't afford to have him pick up something too.

Not sure why people are griping about the defense.
Everton and Bournemouth are ranked 6 and 7 in goals scored. There are not many teams better - and when we play the top-6 we set up differently, and have generally had a DM in front of the back.
I am not concerned at all about our defense.

Get more for Trippier and he no less of a liability

Comfortable lead but i dont want them scoring early in the 2nd half, could make it very umcomfortable for us with a younger than usual back 4. A lot of people on here underestimating Bournemouth. Keep them out for the first 15 mins and we should be home and hosed.

He's tasty from both flanks deep. *matron*
I prefer him from the left as he trixy-jinks inside and defenders shite themselves even more.
No proper CM?

I haven't been able to look closely enough as to who or what the cause is but there's definitely an openness at the back from crosses coming in in particular that we've been lucky to get away with. Looks like a real lack of organisation at the back there at times.
Good half when you consider we've could have easily been 2-0 but raced to a 2-0 lead, then grabbed a third with them missing chances to get at least one goal, yet we go into HT 3-0.
I'm not going to complain though, it's not a usual back 4 and we all know how many players we're missing.

Errr ... Lucas is clearly playing out on the right wing today, what game are you watching? His only touch in the middle of the pitch was his goal. Today we are playing a clear 4-2-3-1 with Son on the left and Moura on the right.

May have been confusing on the wording a bit but thats what I'm saying. Lucas today has been more often than not on the right wing and the team and he looks much better because of it.

Ah ok ... agreed then. I thought you were saying he is much better up top and useless out on the right.
