I'm guessing Gazzanigga, since there's a rule saying that if our two registered goalies are injured or suspended we can play an unregistered one anyway. So leaving him out just means we have to put Brandon Austin on the bench instead of him if one of Vorm or Lloris is unavailable for a match.

The injury has to be more than a 30 day one I think. So if it's only a minor we'd have to start Vorm with unproven keeper on the bench. We're not gonna put ourselves in that position. Gazaa will surely be in the squad. Foyth is seen as part of the future by Poch so it would be a massive snub to him not to be put in the CL squad. So I think it's between Sissoko and Lamela. I have my own thoughts which it will be.

What are the odds on the substitute keeper actually being needed though? Somewhere in the region of 1%? Putting the odds of Austin actually having to take to the pitch rather than Gazza at a fraction of 1%. It doesn't make sense to leave out an outfield player in Sissoko or Lamela who'd be very likely to get minutes to failsafe against such an extreme scenario.
 
Moura is a good football player, very technical and very keen but he lacks intelligence in his movements and not efficient enough in front of the cages. On the other hand it is a super guy with a very good mentality that was adored fans. It's a good potential that will definitely progress with Pochettino


Edit: I specify that I am a French supporter of PSg and that I saw all his matches with us;)
