Aside from the CBs that is how I had hoped we'd start (Bentancur was 50/50 in my head).

I like the majority of that XI.

I believe in Xmas miracles!

Bentancur WHHHHHAAAATTTTT

I’ve just run around screaming after seeing bentancur starting. My two daughters are looking at me like no grown 38year old man should be acting like this.

 

[Aleks]

I'm gonna cry, what a surprise

 

[KILLA_SIN]

That Midfield looks infinitely better than what we put out against Brighton

 

[neogenisis]

Who is Bournemouth's Matty Cash?

 

[Mr Pink]

Now im confident!

 

[rossdapep]

What a fucking boost that is!

 

[SDogg]

Well Ange did say Bentancur would be back about January

 

[ikky]

Wow! What a boost to have Bentancur back

 

[Now it's Spursonal]

Very worried about this one tbh.

Andoni Iraola has turned Bournemouth into probably the best high-pressing side in the league. Normally this would suit us perfectly as at full strength we'd have Romero, Van De Ven and Bissouma to break through the press and spring counters.

Unfortunately though we are far from full strength and the crazy high-pressing on Davies, Royal and whoever's at 6 is 100% going to end up in some very dangerous turnovers and likely some goals. (Will never happen but would love to see Lo Celso in the 6, just to be able to break the press)

Also, Solanke is in red-hot form and particularly so with his heading, so I'm very worried about his mismatch in height with our 'centerbacks'.

Think we're going to need to score 3+ goals here in order to get a result.

Wow, Bentancur back in the 6 and my hopes have skyrocketed!

Still feel Davies and Royal will give up chances from being pressed, but having a reliable out ball to Bentancur is going to benefit them massively.

That midfield three is magic

Bentancur was predicted to be out until Feb. I really hope we aren’t starting him too early.

 

[Tiberius Gracchus]

Unto.

Is he still around? Not noticed his posts for ages

 

[Yiddo100]

Much nicer looking midfield than vs Brighton

 

[mark87]

Bentancur was predicted to be out until Feb. I really hope we aren’t starting him too early.

I don't see how we would knowing we have Bissouma and Sarr away for AFCON, would just be stupid.

He passed away there is a thread
