i'm a bit concerned that mourinho will not learn that without a proper target man we really should be trying to keep the ball more in the middle. If though i see a 433 setup on sunday then i'll be hopeful of a win, 3 midfielders and lucas and bergwijn on the ing with alli up top. Alli i think would play a great target man and can drop deeper if he needs to.
Forgive me but what was our line up against Chelsea last week?

We need to play through midfield and keep the ball on the ground IMO. Ideally we'll get a chance to play the ball into space behind them instead of playing to feet when our front players are all struggling with first touch. We need fullbacks (or a fullback) who can contribute going forward as well IMO.
yeah i really think we need to play to the players strengths, lucas should get back on the wing along with stevie and just plug the gap with somebody else so we have plenty of pace and trickery outside wide. Wolves play with wing-backs anyway so there will be space behind in those areas.

I do not believe that people are actually thinking this through when they are pitting Ben Davies against Adama Troure. There is only going to be one winner

Agreed....Davies vs Traore would be crazy. Sessegnon (or Tanganga) all day long for me. Here is the team I would go with:

------------Lloris---------------------
Tanganga---Toby----Sanchez----Sessegnon
------------Winks---Ndombele------
Lamela-------Lo Celso-------Bergwijn
---------------Alli-------------------

Aurier is left out because he isn't reliable and Davies is wayyyyy too slow to counter the pace of Traore. Moura works very hard but has the footballing IQ of a sea urchin so also is left out.

Jan played full back against Traore when we beat them earlier this season...

That match up was borderline physical abuse!

So someone says " we are going to lose " and is called spineless .
Another fan says we are going to win and is called 'Deluded"
Neither statement is correct its just peoples opinions and calling a person opinion spineless or deluded is not fair as believe it or not we are all allowed an opinion if you are going to label people because their opinions don't tally with yours is unfair and uncalled for if you don't agree with someone then explain why you think they are wrong . One of the functions of this site is for the discussing of views . well that's why I come on here to relay my views right or wrong but the real reason for me is that this site is a release valve for my angst about certain subjects .
Which is all well and good except the other day, you called people 'sad cases' for their opinions. You bring this one out fairly regularly. In the future, perhaps it'd carry a bit more credibility if you were to practise what you preach.

got a feeling we may be subjected to Dier again for some reason.

Lloris
Aurier Sanchez Toby Davies
Dier Winks
Lucas Lo Celso Steve
Alli

although my preference would be:
Lloris
Aurier Sanchez Toby Tanganga
Winks Ndombele Lo Celso
Lucas Alli Steve

-WiWinks---Ndombele

Lamela-------Lo Celso-------Bergwijn

----Moura / Alli

Close call between Lucas ad Dele in this role, but play either before this midfield and I would wager that we get three points!
