The only rumours you're hearing about todays team are from wums on sites like this and Twitter. Take a look around you, would you believe anything anyone on here told you? So behave yerselves and wait until 2pm like the rest of us before you lose your nut. A very tight 1-4 to us today.
 


Assuming Davies comes in for Schneiderlin, who will be backup CM cover on the bench? Dowell seems a bit of a stretch for that role. Is there any news on Baningime's ankle injury? He would be the obvious next in line after Gueye, Schneiderlin, Gomes, Davies, McCarthy. If Baningime too, is unfit, and with Joe Williams being loaned out to Bolton this week I'm struggling to see any other alternative other than sticking with Dowell as the option off the bench with the alternative of dropping Sigurdsson further back. Neither of them are defensively minded of course. Denis Adeniran or young Alex Denny are the other alternatives in the U23s but it would be a surprise if they were to feature. Let's hope Gueye/Davies can last the 90 mins.

Sig has played there for Iceland and ran the show, scoring a couple of goals I think, but probably with a massively compact and defensive midfield around him, so would need Gueye to be hugely disciplined. Would be a brave call and a better option if we were at home, but nothing ventured nothing gained as they say.
