Aaaaaand Davinson Sanchez has joined injury fc.

 

[dirtyh]

considering we're beyond bare bones, that's a decent side. coys.

I have no idea who Fagan-Walcott is but I’m here for it

If I was Mourinho I would make sure we don’t concede in the first half, that’s the most important thing and then go for it in the second half

I have no idea why but your posts are consistently funnier than the baseline. I wouldn't have laughed if someone else posted this.

I assume we don't know how bad it is?

That tactic would be great if we had the players to apply it. Just think about Chelsea away and how well that tactic played out.

 

[panoma]

Our injury list takin the piss atm

I wasn’t there and that’s all I have to say at this time

 

[mil1lion]

Finally the wingback formation with Aurier and Sess. It might actually work but only if they push forward enough. Sess really needs to belive in himself.

I wasn’t even doing a funny on this occasion, fabulous

Surprised Ndombele isn't starting.

Nah. The most important thing is to score ASAP for it to be back at square one and make the players feel there’s a chance. The team that scores first will win.

Never seen Fagan-Walcott play but his player profile on official site says that he was a district 200m sprint champion, it's good to have pace against Leipzig in the back. Back 3 with actual wingbacks should be a lot better than what we had against Burnley.

Us not conceding in the first half lol.
Yeah right. If we go 15min I'll be pleasantly surprised. We leak goals for fun against the worst teams going. I fear this lot at home will tear us a new one.

2 for 1 at burger king.

Guess we are playing 5 at the back tonight?

lloris

Aurier
Tanganga
Dier
Toby
Sess

Winks
Lo Celso

Coco
Dele
Lucas

In the grand scheme of things, this isn't completely awful. If everyone was fit, then perhaps the biggest difference would be Harry and Sonny in for Lucas and Coco. And likely Davinson for Tanganga.

I'd like to see Jose stick with a formation for a few games. Give the players some time to settle in fixed positions (injury permitting). So, if 5 at the back is the answer... so be it.

 

[InOffMeLeftShin]

Proper wing backs, that's a start...

Thats what you think. What are the odds it’s actually tanganga at left back and lamela, Lucas and sessegnon behind Dele in a 4-2-3-1?
