Starting 11 for 1st Premiership game of season?

[Karl Emil]

I think you'll win this one. Koeman is a very good tactical manager and seems to have Poch's number

 

[Kieno]

There is no way any player who only signed a couple of days before the start of the season (if anyone) is starting the first game

Joel
Coleman Jagielka Funes-Mori Baines
Gueye Barry
Lennon Barkley Mirallas
Lukaku​

 

[dano195]

Stekelenburg
Coleman Williams Funes Mori Baines
Gueye
Lennon Barkley Mirallas
Deulofeu Lukaku

 

[Tez]

Skekelenburg
Jagielka - Williams - Funes Mori
Coleman - Gana - Barry - Baines
Deulofeu - Lukaku - Barkley

If Williams isn't available then McCarthy will likely come into midfield and we'll play 4 at the back.

GK: Stekelenburg
RB: Coleman
LB: Baines
CB: Williams
CB: Funes Mori
CM: Gueye
CM: Barry
AM: Barkley
RW: Lennon
LW: Mirallas
CF: Deulofeu

Pure pace up top in that front three, play on the counter, balls into the channels.

I think it'd work against a high-press, high-line, possession-based team like Spurs.

What I hoped for thinking back to last week:

Beg
Baines Williams Stones Coleman
Gueye Witsel
Del Ross Mata
Rom

 

[Walter Ego]

Williams will start not a doubt

Hasn't kicked a ball in pre season. He's having his first training session today so why risk it,?

 

[Pienaar's gloves]

Doubt it but I would be interested to see:

3-3-1-3 (3-4-3 but Ross more advanced)

Starting XI

Steklenberg

Williams
Jagielka
Funes Mori

Coleman
Gueye
Baines

Barkley

Deulofeu
Lukaku
Mirallas

Bench: Joel, Holgate, Pennington, Barry, McCarthy, Kone, Dowell.

My thinking is that Mirallas, Deulofeu, Baines and Coleman have all got it in them to step in to midfield and help to win that battle with Gueye and Ross when we are off the ball. When we are in full flow, that team would batter any one.
