:hungover: Yet another game without a genuine no 10 coinciding with lack of pace on the wings. It has never, and will never, establish a rhythm or consistency for us. Let's hope that today we manage to make it work though. COYS.

Yep, I fear we will see yet another game where our only chances come from set pieces or long balls over the top.
Our lack of pace and width is starting to be a recurring theme this season as it was all of last season. Son should be in the team to give us better balance and speed on the counter attack.

Neither meet my definition of an inverted winger. They can do jobs there, as someone like Milner at Liverpool can, but I'd personally prefer to see genuine two footed pacy wingers playing out wide, and I'm hoping to see the return of Chadli today.

We don't play with strictly inverted wingers, more free roaming forwards who interchange in the forward positions.

I don't care what any of you say, controversial or not I prefer Dembele over Carroll

I don't think that's even slightly controversial, Dembele/Toby/Lloris are the first names on the team sheet. We look so so so much more solid when Dembele is in the side.

If Ali is not fit to play then fine, but if not, then why are most on here so quick to drop him?

Just asking....

I hate it when you get smart arses on here that say 'I told you so'.

I tell you what, I won't bother
