Has to be Grey.
....oooooor Palhinha as a false #4... and rush #6...?So presumably thats Danso and Gray as the two CBs with a mid of Palhinha, Bentancur and Xavi... interesting
I’m almost certain Frank is behind the whole numerical presentation of the starting XI.I like that Frankie has us guessing up to an hour before k.o...
Gawd knows what Grant Mcann will make if it?!
It would be nice to see Luca get the last 20 mins! Hopefully be 3-0 and can bring him on for SimonsKinsky
Porro (C), Danso, Gray, Spence
Palhinha, Bentancur Xavi
Johnson, Tel, Odobert
Subs : Austin, Udogie, Van de Ven, Byfield, Bergvall , T Thompson, Williams-Barnett, Scarlett, Richarlison
3 Players from our u19 squad on bench !
Welp. Just one or two off haCan't see him not getting a start. Here's my guess, God knows who plays LCB as Cuti and Micky need a rest, possibly Gray, but reckon Frank will want to have a look at him in his natural position as much as possible.
Kinsky
Spence-Danso-???-Udogie
Sarr-Gray-Lolo
Brennan-RKM-Tel/Odobert
We got VDV, Davies and Gray.Pretty much as expected. Shame we only have 3 fullbacks though.
...what, and expect him to score 4 goals to claw it back...?It would be nice to see Luca get the last 20 mins! Hopefully be 3-0 and can bring him on for Simons
Hope it's Palinha at CB as we could be really dropping the ball with gray's development if we can't play him in midfield in these type of games. Using him as a squad player who can play in multiple positions is very useful from our perspective but it's absolutely devastating for his development at this stage. This could be his second year running where he could be looking at little to no minutes in his main position.
I really hope for his own sake that he's playing in midfield today. Palinha can do a job at CB.
