Feel sorry for your cat.
That could be back four, but it would hardly be that huge a surprise to see Vlad - after all he came in last game instead of Fryers - or even Jan now what he has returned to full training.

I seriously doubt Tim will start Sandro. Probably won't be in the squad.
Be 2 of paulhino, bentelab, chadli and siggurdson in the middle
Think he'll end his spell with Lennon, bentelab, chadli and eriksen in midfield
And his two boys up top

It was all political flim-flammery from Sherwood in the first place.

I would have thought any club would have taken loan players until after play off dates incase they are involved in them like QPR.
Wouldnt think he will be involved as he hasn't trained with us at all.

Really starting to look like it. When was the last time he played, Anfield away?
It was probably then when he realised he had no chance of getting the job and dropped him like a bag of shite.

Only one more game with this fool in charge. My team...
Lloris; Naughton, Dawson, Chiriches, Fryers; Lennon, Sandro, Capoue, Paulinho, Eriksen; Adebayor
Lloris; Naughton, Dawson, Chiriches, Fryers; Lennon, Sandro, Capoue, Paulinho, Eriksen; Adebayor
So at goal it'll be usual with Hugo starging and Brad on bench, on defence we've Walker, Vertonghen and Kaboul missing so it's 4/5 out of Naughton, Dawson, Vlad, Rose and Fryers - judging from Vlad coming in at prev game instead of Zeki, the latter will miss out. So Hugo - Naughton, Dawson, Vlad, Rose with subs Brad, Zeki.
At midfield it's whole bunch missing with Lamela, Dembele, Chadli and Townsend all on the sidelines and Capoue just coming back and probably making just bench. Seems like Eriksen and Paulinho are certain starters, Lennon highly likely unless Tim wants to give Pritchard a shot (probably on bench with Capoue) and if Tim goes 2 up front, there is 1 slot left with Sandro, Nabil and Sig trying for it. Nabil hasn't played a minute since march, so guess it's between Sandro and Sig. Sandro played initially a lot coming from injury late february untill getting back to the treatment table. Now that Tim gave him some minutes last weekend, wouldn't be that surprised to see him start. So perhaps Lennon, Sandro, Paulinho, Eriksen with Bentaleb, Sig, Pritchard and Capoue on bench.
Up front Ade gets his usual nod and it's between Soldado and Kane for last spot. Could go either way. Guess Kane is bit more likely.
So a guess: Lloris - Naughton, Dawson, Vlad, Rose - Lennon, Paulinho, Sandro, Eriksen - Kane, Ade
Subs: Friedel, Fryers, Capoue, Bentaleb, Sig, Pritchard, Soldado
Vejlkovic just misses the bench.

Bentaleb Veljkovic
McEvoy Eriksen Pritchard

Don't think you will be far off, He said at the pressy yesterday that he will field a team that wants to play for the Club and him, so you can probably cross anyone off that told him their agent told them he was offski and anyone else that has upset him, christ thats a long list.
Not once this season have we fielded our strongest starting XI. We have a lot of injuries currently, but it would've been great if Sherwood played something like this:
Of course, the line-up will be nothing like this because Sherwood has to think of his own managing future. He gains nothing by starting Capoue, Sandro, and Soldado. If they play well, they make him look like shit for keeping them on the bench for stretches of his tenure. There's no upside in it for him, whereas if he plays Kane, he has nothing to lose and everything to gain. Wouldn't be surprised if Bentaleb came in for Paulinho either, and Lennon is an absolute lock to start.
By the way, the fact that Soldado has hardly started a game since scoring our winner against Cardiff and then putting in a fantastic display against Southampton tells you everything you need to know about this season. He could've gotten his confidence up these last six weeks against shit teams, but was relegated to the bench so that we could play a pair of strikers in Ade/Kane that clearly don't mesh well together. I'm sure Levy doesn't like seeing assets depreciated in that way.

At this point, the only thing I'm hoping to see is a lone striker with Eriksen in behind and Pritch on the left. Absolutely no chance of it happening with Sherwood still at the helm and undoubtedly under direction to play as strong a lineup as possible with Europe still on the line, but I'd be delighted to see it as it would be the most conducive move to strengthen for next season (more similar to a formation we'll undoubtedly play regardless of manager chosen, Eriksen plays his best position, and we reward a loanee/academy lad by playing him in a position we've been weak at all season and consequently give inspiration to the other academy lads).

Between Kaboul's red card and the feud between Sandro and Sherwood, I'm not sure which of the two I'd be more surprised to see out there tomorrow.

Kaboul can't play because of the red card so Vlad will enter after a good showing. But apart from that I think this could very likely be the team.
I'm not sure Paulinho/Adebayor will be playing after the wall debacle, but who knows.
Personally I'd like to see...
Lloris
Naughton Dawson Chiriches Rose
Sandro
Lennon ------- Pritchard
Eriksen
Kane Soldado

Sandro
Lennon ------- Pritchard
Eriksen
Kane Soldado
