If we are playing a front 3 we dont have a better third option.
I'd still drop Lucas for Ndombele/Lo Celso and stick them in as an advanced CM so we have a bit more quality in the middle.

Big issues at centre half missing Llorente and Ayling which is why Phillips played there, no established forward with Bamford and Rodrigo missing which is more important than just Raphina.
That puts them one off the relegation zone, they need a reaction soon. They could easily go down this year IMO.
Norwich were my only certs to go down this year and they've just had a big win with a new manager bounce and gotten Gilmour back in the side who is a smasher.
6 points between 13th and 19th and I haven't even mentioned Newcastle, owned by billionaires with the new manager bounce and I do think Howe will improve them.
Agree thick Irish fuck. The lights are on but no one's home.
How unfit are the lads. He says again he wasnt sure if they could last 90 mins.
Would like us to get lamptey from brighton for right wing back spot. Wing backs well stocked then. Want sessegnon to push on now as well.
Shit for it to be necessary granted, but happy to see him do it.
Both are nowhere near what we know they can be right now. It will come.
I thought Winks was generally OK. Hojbjerg was properly shit until he scored which seemed to get him going.
I predicted an "It was Leeds" excuse if Winks had had a good game, but congrats for shoeing it into a Kane whinge.
Feeling your pain Sammy
As I understand it, "It was Leeds" and therefore doesn't count
His effort on goal I mean. Whether it was a SOT or not.
I’m delighted with the win, the second half was better but as some fans knew, Conte isn’t a magician and we have some truly poor performers out there.
The problem is that one of them is our only striker
Game of two halves!
Just glad to get the three points, during this time of Antonio getting to grips with the players, and sorting them out.

He did work hard today as usual. He always does work hard.
He just can't put in a good performance unless it's Pacos, Mura, Albania, or San Marino level competition.
Even against Leeds defenders, he looked so slow and lethargic. I can't imagine what he'll look like going up against a VVD.
I'm afraid, physically, it's gone. I'm not sure if an athlete suddenly gets physically faster, stronger, quicker etc. at his age.
Doesn't mean that he still can't be a decent PL level striker for years to come. His technical ability is still there. He just won't be elite or top level player.
