I mean, last weeks TEF lineup leak wasn't exactly right now was it.

Fourth official on twitter has got line up right, but thats only ten minutes before official announcement

Is it usually accurate? If so, do share.

Rooney dropped, DCL and Niasse both start and Holgate drops out for Keane. Martina comes in at RB.

Where’s the width at Connor

Don't ask me, ask Fat Head

I’d rather see Rooney start than Niasse with the latter coming off the bench if need be. But yeah that’s an improvement at least if it means one less defensive mid.

Pickford

Holgate Keane Koeman Baines

Gueye Davies

30

DCL

Holding prediction until I see the lineup.

If Rooney and Sigurdsson start in the same team, I can't see a goal.

I'm actually unsure of how this will go today. Against Burnley. At home

We're only in October and this season already feels like a slog

..a big plus given the aerial threat from Chris Wood.

Last game was spot on to be fair.

d'you mean Apollon, or B'mouth?

Because the B'mouth one wasn't.

No Vlasic? Moonface never learns which is the main problem I have with him

 

[Blues Harp]

Dyche has done an incredible job cementing Burnley as a premier league team. It'd be interesting to see how he did with some better players and some money to spend but I'd rather give an Unsworth/Ferguson duo a crack for the rest of the season.

Mid table mediocrity it is then?

...Keane is apparently fit to play.

 

[Eggs]

..lots of blag team news before blag team time. Interesting if the Rooney on the bench and Niasse starting is correct.

Good Rooney needs to sit it out. He's an ideal sub if we are leading
