FKW, huh?
Not a kit, just a t shirt and some shorts to wear around the house and sleep in.
When do you expect LC to appear. I hope he's ready for the City game.Vorm, Trippier, Carter-Vickers, Rose, Onomah, Dembele, Amos, Edwards, N'Koudou, Clarke, Janssen, Llorente
None of those were in Asia because they were either sold/loaned or deemed not good enough. Is that about right?
Maybe there are question marks about Rose and Llorente. Wanyama was still away
Etete (17), NDombele (22) have arrived (Clarke loaned)
Son and Foyth miss the first two games while Aurier and Dier are both injured. Lloris went home so maybe he will miss the first game back? Maybe not
Skipp, Tanganga and Parrott added to their squad value during the trip to Asia. Roles not so much
Lloris, Gazzaniga, Walker-Peters, Davies, Sanchez, Vertonghen, NDombele, Winks, Sissoko, Dele, Lamela, Moura, Kane are all 100% available for selection against Villa (maybe Wanyama and Dier too, but will they be match fit?)
Eriksen and Alderweireld we're still not sure about
Lo Celso, Sessegnon and Dybala are all linked, some more than others but they probably won't be included in the starting eleven
We Could see our first line up of the new season like this
Lloris
Walker-Peters Sánchez Vertonghen Davies
Winks
Sissoko NDombele
Dele
Moura Kane
Edit: Missed out Lamela lol
Probably 30 mins v Newcastle.When do you expect LC to appear. I hope he's ready for the City game.
Won't matter against Villa. MC is a different kettle of fish.!Sadly Son is suspended for the first 2 matches of the season.
I think Geurgiou has a lot of potential.Ahhh. Then we are in trouble back there. If Davies is not fit and Rose is not resolve, we have to contend with Tanganga or Georgiou.
Joke!!!Ndombele defensive mid? Noooo
How to solve the right back problem....play two, GenisusSo with that in mind, I reckon the lineup more or less writes itself tomorrow:
.......................................Lloris
KWP........ Alderweireld....... Vertonghen..... Rose
..............Sissoko........Ndombele......... Winks
.....................................Eriksen
..........................Kane............. Lucas
With Lucas playing off Kane up front. Maybe, failing that, some kind of diamond with Sissoko and Lucas on the sides.
Either way, I think that will safely be the starting XI when you factor in the absentees and Lo Celso being far too new. He will make the bench though, in my opinion, given the number of suspensions and injuries. Lamela would be the only player who'd possibly be starting that I didn't include.
If KWP starts as RB, who in the Villa side will he be up against?I’m as unconvinced of KWP as anybody, but this is the perfect game to start him even if Aurier was 100%. At home against a team that will park the bus. KWP is better at breaking down that kind of defense than Aurier, and KWP’s defensive frailties shouldn’t matter much.
