We really should be gliding past Bournemouth I agree.
They've become a lot harder to beat since Scotty P was sacked and they changed the goalkeeper to Neto. The good news is, Mark Traver is likely back, and he seems to be a raffle winner not an actual goalkeeper.
I recall him playing quite well when we went there and lost.
 
If Conte is going to start playing Skipp, he'd better hurry up, or the boy will lose the youthful energy and spark that sets him apart. These things don't last forever.

Being an international jet setter & one of the hardest working men in show business I’ll be heading to Mallorca when this kicks off

It’s a disgrace & a travesty to working class heroes , like myself
 
That Gil guy should start, which implies three up front. I would also go with Sess. Trickiest call is RWB. Wondering if Bissouma could play there? But we have three RWB specialists, or two plus Royal, so, err, Doherty. There I’ve said it. Doherty at RWB. A half each for Hojberg and Skipp. White for Bentancur with 15 left. The rest pick themselves I’m afraid. Oh Davies over Lenglet.

It's not VAR that's the problem, it's the idiots that officiate that cock it up time and time again!
I'm not going to give you a disagree, because you're Mrs P, but although you're 100% right about the idiots, in addition to those morons, the tech just isn't good enough yet to judge very close offsides accurately.
Until the tech becomes accurate, I'd rather leave offsides to the idiots running the line, in preference to the idiots at Stockley Park.
Sure, we'll still get mistakes from the linesmen/women, but at the moment we're having the life sucked out of the game AND WE'RE STILL GETTING MISTAKES.

I'd be shocked if White sees 10+ minutes in a PL game this season. I'd be surprised if he ever plays for us in the league tbh.

I totally agree with you, it's one thing to reluctantly accepting human error, another to have a four minute discussion and still get it wrong!
