I think it's pretty common knowledge that the OMT GHod needs to start as many OMTs as possible before the end of the season, I helped us get a point against Everton to keep my unbeaten run going for 13 games. It's going to be tough in Switzerland but with my help I think we can sneak a win away at Basel, but it won't be easy as we found out at home against them. I would play the following personally:
We have a big rest after this so I would play our full strength, Lloris needs to start this game, his ability to sniff out danger being off his line, claiming crosses and being dominant is needed, especially with how good Streller was against us in the first leg. Defence picks itself, it's easily our strongest possible defence available at the moment. I would actually give Hudd a start. I feel his quick release and unbelievable passing is needed, put a presser like Parker next to him as well as a great defensive player like Dembele, he could flourish.
I think the front three also picks itself. Dempsey does not deserve a start after todays performance, Siggy has been one of our best players in recent weeks, Adebayor starts and Holtby has played well too, he was arguably our best player at home to them.
Lets fudging do this and get a semi final to the Lane.
