I thought Bentancur misses out due to too many yellows.....?
Pretty much this - except Odobert for Johnson
there is an argument for starting Tel instead of Solanke - but would imagine Tel is the better sub against tired legs.
Solanke looked out on his feet at the end - good for 60-70 mins on Thursday
Absolutely that is the MF 3 we need. And of you have to sub Sarr because he played 90min, you sub him for Archie Gray.
I like the optimism from some of you. I just don't see how we could win. We can't defend and we can't create. I see nothing from Ange that we can play proper football, only chaos and mess...
No mixed feelings
Win the game, which I think we will, mostly because the end of today will give the players belief.
The manager's job is to pick the right side to start the game.
Has to be high energy, which is counter to the way this guy sets up the team.

Back 4 of Porro Romero VDV Spence
Mid 3 of Gray Bergval madders
Front 3 of Odobert Solanke Tel
The midfield is mobile,creative and can all pass the ball. Two wide players that will want to take on the full backs and Dom will be up to speed after today.
If we a midfield 3 like that started today and Johnson and Sonny who won’t go by no cunt then we should just burn the place to the ground.
At least fucking go for it Ange and try save your job.

What a load of bollocks that is being spewed out there.
So it’s taken the fuckwit fraud nigh on two years to work out that if his team starts strong and plays like they actually want to win a football match, it might get the crowd going early and create a wonderful atmosphere. Twat.
After the first 15-20 minutes of most home games, most of us are rolling our eyes and sinking lower and lower with shoulders sagging wondering how the fuck we haven’t already conceded three goals. And he wonders about the atmosphere and why the place isn’t rocking. Jeez, he really needs to go.
I'd start Tel at LW but Ange will start Son, fine. But for the love of God don't start Johnson over Odobert.
I know Biss will start with Bentancur out but I'd give Gray a go.

We shall score a deuce in the first half
And we shall score thrice in the second half and in the third half another thrice
If Ange always wins something in his 2nd season then we're guaranteed to win this so might as well rotate 
We’re a bit shit at the footballing side of the ENIC real estate business. Hard to feel confident
if we run at the goalie, we might milk a penalty & go to extra time & Penalties....and win
