I suspect it will be Bergwijn as the No. 10 with Lucas playing RWF. Bergwijn has the vision and intelligence to play the role, I'm excited to see it.

I think this is likely too, but won’t shocked too see a 442 as that’s basically what we’ve been playing and he likes Son with chalk on his boots, then Lucas playing off Harry and Bergwijn as a slightly tucked in RW.

So seems like Dier and Sanchez are first choice pairing for CB’s

I'm gonna guess at Bergwijn and Kane as the front two as neither Son nor Lucas are great in that play making role.

Bergwijn through the middle would be interesting.

He's got pace, vision and moves the ball quickly and intelligently. He might not score headers in the box or nutmeg anyone, but he's better than Alli in pretty much every other way on recent form.

Well deserved IMO, we've been rock solid since the restart.

I’m not reading too much into players being benched. Lots of games coming up in quick succession. Jose probably has all his teams planned already.

Lo Celso and Bergwin the only ones with any sense of real ball protection in that MF and attack!

Looks like we're going with a front 4 to completely disrupt their overlapping centre backs. Looks like we've done our homework.

They literally always talk about the game that's going to end the night first at the top of the show.

Well there's also Kane, but yeah doesn't exactly scream ball retention does it.

Usual stuff, field every speed merchant that we have and hope for a couple of goals on the break. Let's all hold hands and pray then.
Dele should be in there no matter what. Or Lamela, if Dele rests.

He's playing Dier based on merit because he's been very good recently

Do Sheff U play high up the pitch? That pace in behind is surely frightening.

How long has Dier got left on his? Also tbh Dier’s stock has fallen since he was linked to Man U for £50m
