Lloris
Trippier Toby Sanchez Verts Rose
Sissoko Winks
Eriksen Lamela
Son

I'd stick Son up front. He's by far our most dangerous attacker. Lamela and Eriksen are usually excellent at slide rule passes, Son has the pace and movement we need.

Llorente is an option off the bench.

Quite like the link up between Son and Llorente, seen it a few times, V Newacastle, APOEL last year, hopefully more to come

Wanyama -Well I suppose we want to get him fit and have a sell on value if he's not part of our plans.

Tough match for us. Nothing really feels like a home advantage anymore, so feel it's pretty even.

v Leicester

-------------------Lloris------------------
KWP--Toby----Sanchez-Vertonghen---
-------------------Dier------------------
-----Winks-------------Eriksen-------
--Sissoko-------Llorente-------Son---

Subs: Gazzaniga, Trippier, Foyth, Rose, Lamela, Moura, Wanyama/Skipp

Leave Lamela and Moura as Impact Subs. Sissoko can help out KWP defensively. Wouldn't mind Rose but would save him for Dortmund.
And of course Aurier would play over KWP...

v Dortmund


-----------------Lloris----------------
--------Toby---Sanchez--Verts------
--Trippier--Winks-Sissoko---Rose--
-----------Eriksen-------Moura---------
-------------------Son-----------------------

Subs: Gazzaniga, Aurier, Foyth, Dier, Lamela, Llorente, Kane

Maybe we can get Kane back for 20 min. If its too early place KWP/Wanyama/Skipp on the bench.

And people think this team can’t beat Leicester at home?! Even with the injuries and lack of form from llorente this team is good enough to get a result against most. COYS

Please not Aurier. He's been underwhelming to say the least, the last couple of games. We need to go offensive for this one, so Trippier or KWP for me. Aurier's speed will be more useful against Dortmund.

Anyone but trippier please. Mind you if he plays on Sunday that means he probably won’t against dortmund and drop the inevitable bollock.

Its weird what a year does. Seeing Sissoko in everyone's team makes me so happy for him

Lloris
Trippier - Alderweireld - Vertonghen - Rose
Sissoko - Winks
Moura - Eriksen - Son
Llorente

Better to occupy their center-halves with a fighter, allowing Son and Moura to glide in around them. An early goal would be great for a change, because that'll ruin their game plan. Sissoko, Winks and Eriksen can control midfield and hopefully a tricky tie gets wrapped up and we hit 60pts.

Its the speed that Trippier doesn't have but definitely doesn't match up with Walker.

I'd say in a straight race, it'd be a lot closer than you imagine.

Serge's 'pace' is ridiculously overrated, his pace of thought is a much bigger problem.

What is it about Trippier that you love so much? Based on your many comments and replies when anyone dares to criticize him, you are always making excuses for him, even when most of the excuses have no merit. Your implication that Trippiers pace is a lot closer to walker is just plain daft
