Is Sane back? Aurier is no match for him.

So, Sessegnon or Vertonghen at LB then? Is Davies fit for selection?
Tanganga did move over to LB second half vs Liverpool when Rose was subbed off.
sess would be an even worse option to be fair. It’ll have to be verts. Bit of experience at the very least
No striker , no DM .
0,2 City
0,2 City
Can we keep all this no DM and No Striker stuff in the transfer moan thread now.
Windows shut, this is our squad, now it’s on to City and support the boys that are here.
I’m intrigued as to how we will set up.
I can see us winning this.

Winks is out injured apparently. Looks like Dier in and Bergwijn on the bench.
We're going to batter them. They'll have to cut the broadcast half way through because it'll be so brutal 
Where did you get this from?
That would be mine with possibly Gedson ahead of winks. I also think Lamela will start over bergwijn

Sorry but despite what we need in the summer, this isn’t a bad squad by any stretch.

Quality is remembered long after the price is forgotten
The Guardians guess
I think it will be
[FORMATION=352,Lloris,Tanganga,Alderweireld,Sanchez,Aurier,Lo Celso,Winks,Dele,Sessegnon,Lucas,Son][/FORMATION]
With a bench like: Gazza, Vertonghen, Dier, Ndombele, Gedson, Lamela, Bergwijn
Strong bench, but I would still like to see Parrott on it.

I think Son was a big reason why we coped so well in the past. He's not looked the same player in recent weeks (maybe the Gomes incident knocked his confidence a bit?) He's still trying, for sure. Things just not quite going right for him on the pitch at the moment.
We started winks at DM against this lot last time and we were absurdly lucky to get out of it with a draw. I don't know why we didn't get someone in, maybe we have a long-term target for the summer. Anyway, I think we're a bit screwed for this one because no actual DM is a huge issue. I almost agree with those calling for Wanyama to start, at least he's defensive first and foremost. Play him next to Ndombele and lo Celso and see how it goes.

Son has these ups and downs, and I think he is searching for confidence at the moment. Hopefully will go on another hot streak soon. But I'd prefer Mourinho to say we can cope without Kane, we have done before, Son is a great player etc, rather than whining about what we don't have. Be positive, don't show the players your doubts. Mourinho can get negative when things aren't going his way and that doesn't usually go well.
