Respect your opponent and all that but it's a Champo club. Skipp, Tanganga and Parrott are all Champo+ level players currently so they should get a chance, at home, to play and allow some starters to rest.Nice to see lots of people would have Skipp in the team for this one. I'm hoping that Japhet's performance will mean Jose has a bit more trust in the youth now.

I know Vertonghen is a pretty versatile defender, but asking him to play left back at the same time as right centre back is a bit tough on the old boy.Gazza

At work - partly because budgets are tight - we’re into ‘stretch’ opportunities and people taking on additional responsibilities.I know Vertonghen is a pretty versatile defender, but asking him to play left back at the same time as right centre back is a bit tough on the old boy.
No Rose but if Eriksen can be played in a free role then against M'bore probably OK - if he's still with us
Gazzaniga
Aurier - Tanganga - Sanchez - Sessegnon
Lo Celso - Skipp - Winks
Eriksen
Lucas - Son
Lamela will break if played twice in four days ... maybe Parrott if Son or Lucas need a rest. Between the 23 Jan and the 16th February we have only the Man City home game ... so they will all get a break then.

Danish bacon??....You wanna see Eriksen in a free role? I don’t even want to see him with a bacon roll - I am sick of the sight of him
I believe he strained his groin taking a piss at training yesterday and is out for another weekWhat happened to Ndombele? Is he still alive?
GazzaAnyone but Eriksen!
I’m sure if we all chip in we can get you a maths tutor.Gazza

Giving Boro the 1 man advantage here
Much as I agree with this, part of me worries that leaving these two out means they'll likely feature at the weekend.No Eriksen or Dele please.
