Starting XI and squad vs Fulham

[dublinbluenose]

We're two injuries from having Lonergan and Maupay as our 'best' goalkeeping and striking options.

Michael Keane is almost certain to be a starter next season, and we have the fantastic fight for a left back starting berth between 38-year-old Ashley Young and the god awful Mykolenko.

Never seen a squad so desperate for 5/6/7 signings to be added to it.

 

[AndyC]

I dont even want to think about it.

Is currently, the right answer

 

[mahermi1]

I suppose Maupay could be a better goalkeeper than striker.

Could be on to something there, I've heard he has longer arms than Pickford

but alas, I've also heard so has just about everyone else...

 

[Bez2k2k]

Gerrard
Pistone Koldrup Cleland Neville
Nyarko Gbamin Alexandersson Pembridge
Barlow Madar

 

[GN!]

George Costanza X1 (remember when he did the opposite of his instincts)

Lonergan
Holgate Keane Gbamin (he can play cd on FM) Young
Alli Gomes Barkley (signed on a free) Gray McNeill
Maupay

 

[Rook]

Maybe it's the hope, or maybe i've been binge watching too much Ted Lasso

We lost to Ted Lasso at home

 

[Ash Woods]

Gerrard
Pistone Koldrup Cleland Neville
Nyarko Gbamin Alexandersson Pembridge
Barlow Madar

That era still traumatises me!!! Thanks for that

John Oster and Danny Cadamateri on the bench?

 

[knowing your history]

Seen Fulham rejected a bid for Mitrovic from Saudi land.

Willian not yet signed a new deal, Dan James gone back to Leeds and Periera and Ream are out with injuries for start of the season.

Just need Arsenal to remember they're actually signing Declan Rice and West Ham will be putting in a few bids for Joao Paliniha and it could well be an unsettled start for Fulham, they'll certainly turn up at Goodison with a weaker starting team than in April.

 

[Eggs]

…no idea.

 

[Furey1878]

As it stands:

GK - Pickford

RB - Coleman
CB - Tarkowski
CB - Branthwaite
LB - Mykolenko

RW - Elanga
CM - Doucoure
DM - Gueye / Onana
CM - Iwobi
LW - McNeil

CF - DC-L

Subs:
Virginia
Patterson
Keane / Godfrey
Young
Garner
Gray
Maupay
Cannon
Gueye / Onana

Revised

 

[Miked1e]

Preferably....

Pickford

Patterson
Tarkowski
Branthwaite
Mykolenko

Garner
Doucoure
Onana

McNeil
DCL
Elanga

Of course, that includes only those linked and / or signed so far this summer. Ideally would have at least another 2 new players starting in there. Maybe a left back and a midfielder.

 

[Moomin]

In Nets - Pickford ( Captain )

Leftback - Young

Centreback - Maguire

Centreback - Keane

Rightback - Garner

Def Mid - Onana

Def Mid - Gueye

Left wing - King Ratsnake Danjuma

In the hole - Akpom

Right Wing - McNeil

Up top - Adams

 

[GoldenToffee]

How mad that we've had several years to sort out the striker situation, we saw all last season that Maupay is utterly pathetic, and yet... he'll start against Fulham in a 4-5-1 that renders him even more useless.

We're up chit creek once again it seems.

 

[Eggs]

….if McNeil is out, wouldn’t surprise me if Dobbin starts.

 

[Thomasc]

….if McNeil is out, wouldn’t surprise me if Dobbin starts.

A forward line of Dobbin, Maupay and Danjuma

That has to be up there with the most uninspiring attacking line we have ever had.

Good times.
