Interesting thought if Romeros fit, wonder if he plays one of the 3 in the Stones DM role rather than PEH or Skipp

Don't think we are changing formations, if we were to drop PEH/Skipp for defender, then it's probably Romero in the midfield or Romero and Dragusin as cb, Micky on the left and Destiny on the midfield (can't see that one). Reckon Ange will play PEH or Skipp.

The choice at CB is:

Two rusty players coming back from injury but who know each other
OR
One fit new guy with probably one rusty player
OR
Keep Royal in there with VDV.

I think it's a toss-up between the last two, depending on how ready we think Romero is.

In midfield, I think he goes Skipp.

We could have done with the Brentford game being first.

Yeah - I think Royal gets the start. But, Dragusin will get a chance over the next couple of days to show that he understands the passing patterns - and if he can do that, I think he could start.

Then maybe Romero and VdV against City in the FA Cup.

Micky had 5 days from signing to start? Could be Dragusin starts if he is officially signed today and trains with the team tomorrow.

Scarlett will make the bench ahead of Santiago, Romero ought to be fit for at least bench. Solomon is more of a question mark

HAsn't Dorrington gone on loan? Or is that still being worked on?

Romero will make the bench, imo.

I think it’s going to be Royal / VdV and Skipp starting in midfield.

Royal and VdV will have been working together for the last 10 days and I just think it’s going to be too soon for Dragusin to drop into a system that is diametrically opposite from what he’s playing at Genoa.

Midfield options are very bleak. I just think Ange see PEH as cover for Bentancur and won’t start them both together.

wish this game was one weekend later.
