I guess we won’t be resting any of the front 3, which isn’t ideal.
I can’t see us starting 17/18 Year olds for their debut at Galatasary, I think our hands are tied and we go pretty strong. Midfield will be completely changed imo.No VDV, Romero, Werner, Odobert, Richy or Moore. Plus no Spence obviously.
We either go strong and risk running the likes of Solanke, Johnson and the returning Son into the ground or we go super young with some of the U18 lads.
Udogie likely to be rested I would imagine so Porro at RB and Gray at LB.I think we will see the usual rotation that we’ve seen in the Europa League so far this season. Fully expect to see Gray at Right back, and Bergvall in midfield. We might even see Moor get another start.
Hope no one overreacts if we lose this one.
Squad seems a couple short. Reckon Moore must have been a late withdrawal, otherwise Ajayi would presumably have travelled rather than playing most of the 90 yesterday.
While Casanova put in a solid 60 minute shift for the U21s, Dorrington and Oluessi were not even in the squad, so there may be an intention for them to play some part tomorrow.
Yes but Bergvall, Gray and Lankshear will just have to put down their phones, stop moaning, eat their pasta and focus on the match!I know that the game is in Turkey but I bloody hate these 5:45pm kick-off times when you have a bunch of kids expecting dinner / help with their homework / lifts to training etc etc
I was going to say the same - keep calm and let this one go as a freebie - but that does feel overly optimistic for a match thread.Hope no one overreacts if we lose this one.
