Looks like Traore is starting for them, they may go for the jugular from the off.

Nicolas Pepe's wife is having a baby, hence his absence from the squad.

We could have done with Pepe's pace on the flanks to keep their full back from bombing forward.

I know he has played for a while, but I would have played Torreira from the kick-off and only change it/him if he's not in the zone and the game isn't going our way

Ceballos isn't going to have any time to do his fancy pants twists and turns nor hang onto the ball he will need to get it from under his feet and spread it out and forward to our front-line as soon as it comes to him.

Feck the ole tummy is like a washing machine - I so want us to Win this.

Arteta couldnt pick his nose - no way should kolasniac, soares or nketieh be starting.

Laca might be off form, but he has the physicality to deal with boly and hold up the ball, where as nketieh will be thrown about like a ragdoll :roll:

Soares has played 20 minutes football in 6 months - start either maitland-niles or bellend, but dont play a guy that is nowhere near match fitness, and someone that isnt used to playing with these players.

Kolasniac is shit. He is actually a brainless shit. He will probably give away a stupid penalty today, but will def give away a number of stupid free kicks for them to bring their tall defenders up for :roll:

I would pick luiz ahead of kolasniac every day of the week - that being said, I would probably start sokratis and holding ahead of both of them

Traore playing down the middle. Don’t have to be an expert to see why! Mustafi has already misread a through ball and nearly an early goal! That could be scary!

We have a big whole in our midfield, Xhaka and Ceballos playing so deep there is no one behind Eddie....

We have no focal point number 9 that we can play off - when we are being squeezed, we need a striker that can hold up the ball, and laca is better than nketieh

That being said, nketieh and saka are trying to make early runs but ceballos and mustafi in particular are too slow releasing it :banghead:

Are we controlling the tempo of the game or are they allowing us to control it and then pick us off on the break when we get too confident ?
