You were Aurier’s biggest champion when we signed him. It was like we were signing the second coming of Cafu.
Team vs Brighton
- Thread starter wrd
- Start date
I reckon it’ll be a harder game if they park the bus. It’ll be a harder game either way if we play Dier and Sissoko and trust Dele to be the creative spark.
Taxi for Primativ!

If we can pick eleven players who are comfortable passing and trapping a football, we’ll have a good chance of a result.

If Lo Celso can’t get a start at home to Brighton after the shower we watched last weekend, he might as well leave.

would have thought ndombele(with sissoko moving right) or eriksen are more likely.

I don't know how good (or bad) Ndombele's English is but I wouldn't be surprised to see him in with Sissoko just so that somebody can tell him what's going on around him. I suppose Toby and Jan probably speak French quite well also, but a language barrier can be quite a hindrance for new players. Same goes for Lo Celso in many respects.

Mine was Soldado by a country mile, wanted him long before we were ever linked.
I wish we'd try 3-5-2 / 5-3-2 with Aurier and Sessegnon as wing backs. They are both so perfect for the roles.
............................Gazzaniga
.........Sanchez...Alderweireld....Vertonghen
Aurier......................Winks.....................Sessegnon
................Sissoko..............NDombele....................
................................Alli.......................................
.................................Kane........................................
It's also very fluid. Either of the wing backs can drop into the back line to make a four, with one of the CBs shifting across. And when we're attacking, we can overload, knowing our WBs are fast which to get back and that we still have three ball playing CBs to step up and play the ball higher up the field
