I reckon

Davo over on TEF said he's 99.9 % certain this is the starting 11

Pickford
Holgate Williams baines
Kenny Davies Schneiderlin Martina
Rooney Sigurdsson
DCL​

Wouldn't it make sense to swap Baines and Martina, have the left back at left wing back, and the taller utility player at centre half.

If Gueye, Keane & Jags are out there's not much left for him to pick from. Maybe go back 4 with Baines LB then have Besic maybe for Martina

 

[Billy Dean]

Wow that would be ultra negative at home.

Why mate? It's the same system Spurs use

Yes but their players are a million times better than ours and much more attack minded.


And the way they play it is more often a back 3, whereas ours is mostly a back 5

Why are they out

 

[Agent Blue]

Pleeeeeaaaase not two defensive mids we are at home to Bournemouth.

 

[Tin-Tin]

Gueye is on the pics on the OS so he's not out

 

[sageyefc]

If Keane and jags are injured, simply shift holgate to CB with the donkey and play Kenny right back, no need for this 5 at the back nonsense.

On the bench

Seeing that picture of oumar has calmed me down, defo going to win 4-0 today, oumar with all of them

 

[CahillsCornerFlag]

If your 2 first choice centre backs are both injured it makes absolutely no sense to play 5 at the back, with your left back as a CB, your RB as a left back and a young lad as a RB (though I'd happily see Kenny start, just not in that car crash of a back 5).

 

[BlueToff]

I don't think Ronko trusts Mason as a CB in a two, just yet. And if we have Kenny and Holgate down that side they could well target that.

That being said, I'd rather have Davies in midfield and have a 4 at the back, but we'll see.

If we are going for the throat of this lot like we should be, we'll get away with playing Stek and Robles at CB, I'll be fuming if Bournemouth even get into our half.

 

[Niapper]

3 at the back is understandable as Bournemouth play with 2 strikers up top
