Lloris, Emerson, Dier, Romero, Reguilon, Hojbjerg, Gio, Ndombele, Dele, Son, Kane.

The rumoured lineup.
There's no way Skipp doesn't start. Also, extremely dangerous starting 2/3 lads that just came.

Playing two injured players seems like a terrible idea, but I guess we are at a desperate spot already in the season.

Only way we've got a chance of winning this game is if Kane, Son, Ndombele and Lo Celso all start. And also NES sends them out to be anything but passive.

That's the key...... Nuno setting them up to manage more than one shot before the 70th minute.

We're not going to hold out for 90 minutes if we just sit back and invite them on.

Got to give them something to think about.

Pretty sure Neto played through injury before suffering his serious knee injury last season. Seems Bergwijn re-aggrivated that same ankle problem in each of his most recent games. So it's something that's on my radar with Nuno. That's not to say Dier and Son mightn't be plenty fit to play.

We're at home. You can be on the front foot without going gung-ho and leaving yourselves exposed. We need the crowd right behind us and you can do that early on by showing intent and moving the ball quickly.
