I hope Rodon gets the start with TobyI can't see JM trusting Sanchez and Dier together again.
I also don't think he'll play Sanchez and Rodon together.
I knew someone would turn on Hojbjerg sooner or later..Lloris
Tangana Toby Rodon
Meh Ndombele Reg
Dele Bale Kane Son
bored of Holberg puffing around and tapping the ball to our centre backs, let’s go with a 3-7 formation and overwhelm teams. Nothing to lose really
Agree. Possibly Aurier at RB, and Lamela and Lucas as impact subsHugo
Tanganga. Rodon. Toby. Reguilon
PEH. Ndombele
Ali
Bale. Kane. Son
Should of been our bloody team all season, but Jose picked the wrong players. This for me is our best team with Gio coming in and potentially taking Ali’s place
I think he would look better pressing and chasing alongside a deeper lying ‘footballer’ but I really don’t like him as the holder. Perhaps our centre backs compound that, not sure. Good player and has a role, but I’m good with taking the handbrake off and unleashing our attackers!I knew someone would turn on Hojbjerg sooner or later..
Everyone has the player that will do that job, but Hojbjerg is so much more than that as well. He's had 2 great assists this season, and breaks up play so well.
If he continues to pick Sanchez he deserves for us to lose every game.Easy to tell from last night, by those rested, what Mourinho's initial choice for Sunday is
Lloris
Tanganga Sanchez A.N.Other Reguillon
Ndombele Hjobjerg
Bale Son Moura
Kane
Now if anything from last night has changed that (hopefully Dele coming in) we shall see
Come on man! Surprise me with one selection!
Hart, Davies, Dier, Tanganga, Sissoko, Bergwijn, Moura, Bale, Vincius
And for that reason alone, will probably be on the benchDele and Bale have to start. Both in form and look hungry.
No Tanganga in MF, one step at a timeCome on man! Surprise me with one selection!
If he choses Sanchez and Dier together, and we don't win, then he only has himself to blame. He can't throw any of them under the bus. We have all seen the goals we've conceded due to the both of them.Lloris
Aurier - Alderweireld - Rodon - Reguilón
Ndombele - Højbjerg
Bale - Lamela - Son
Kane
This is the line up for me, although I'd be quite happy with Dele in there instead of Lamela.
I don't expect this to be the team that José chooses though, I think we'll see Sanchez and/or Dier in the back line.
Rodon, Bale and Alli please. If so 3-0 or 4-0. Burnley are woeful.
