i feel games like this are where winks keeps you ticking, but i fee we need to revent to big broozing Dier/Wanyama + Dembele style 'we own the ball' type games.

NDOM is a must, but what i really want from dier is when he slotted between the CBs to make a back 3, which pushed the Wingbacks and other CM's up. Thought it was a really classy way to build.

Don’t think there is any point in playing Moura and Son together against bus parkers. They need space to operate in.

I would like this, and I think Dier may end up being very important, primarily for his screening but there's just no chance both Sissoko and Winks will be on the bench. Do we even know if Dier has/will resume training this week?

It's so bad that LoCelso won't be fit for this game, I feel he's our ideal player to cut inside this type of crowded defenses.

....................... Hugo .......................
Aurier .... Toby ...... Jan ...... Rose
.......... Eriksen ..... Tanguy ................
Lamela .......... Dele ................. Son
........................ Kane ........................

Gazzaniga, Davies, Sanchez, Sissoko, Winks, Moura and Parrott.

I agree with everything you say, but a man can but hope.

Troy on the bench please. Esp with Lo Celso injury. This team and fans just needs a freshness to it.

Did anyone watch the whole of the United/Palace game (not just MOTD highlights)? How did Woy set Palace out? Was it purely defend, defend, defend, counter, or did they have a bit more game about them? Possession and shooting stats say United had the better, but they can be misleading.

It will be frustrating if he hardly gets a look in this season considering how low we are on natural strikers and how much Poch likes to integrate youth. It's not like he hasn't proven himself to be more than capable at youth level. He's earned his shot on the bench, give it him Poch!

Theres a spot available on the bench now that GLC is out, just a matter of whether its Parrott or Sess, doubt Sess is ready

I think it'll be
Lloris
Kwp Toby Verts Rose
Winks Sissoko
Lamela Erikson Son
Kane
And I'm ok with that although i dont think we really need Winks and Sissoko in front of a back 4 against a team that are gonna park the bus.
Also I'd like to see Winks going forward with the ball more instead of slowing us down with sideways and backwards passes. I hate seeing us take 5mins to get out of our own half on the rare occasion a team of bus parkers do come forward.
