Lloris, Vorm, McGee
Walker, Dier, Fazio, Kaboul, Chiriches, Rose, Davies
Stambouli, Capoue, Dembele, Paulinho, Onomah, Winks
Lamela, Chadli, Lennon, Townsend, Soldado
Where was that taken from? Very believeable, though not sure why Fazio, Dier, Davies and Lamela have travelled - 5 of the likely team for the weekend (Verts, Bentaleb, Mason, Kane, Eriksen) would appear to not have travelled.
Given we're through, I would have taken the bare 11 senior players and filled the bench with kids. I struggle to see the point of taking all 5 of those in the 4th row, plus 4 senior CMs plus 7 senior defenders all the way to Turkey - 5 of them will start on Sunday but will only have got back at stupid o'clock on Friday

Poch is complaining about not having a full week with the players as well.
I was him I would have kept the entire team for sunday at home trained them and sent an assistant out to manage a second team in Turkey.
Wow people must really care about tonight as there is still no OMT :lol:
Who needs the Champions League, this is SUCH an exciting fixture, eh?
It's a 6pm kick off so the program starts at 5.30 on ITV4 and loads of you London wazzers will miss it with your hefty commutes on that "public transport" thing I've read about

As this is Serbia, is there any chance of demonstrations, violence, drones flying onto the pitch with Albanian flags and the like?
I predict a stuttering display with a sprinkling of genius mixed in with swathes of turgidity and a shambolic backline

Not Serbia mate - not to be confused with (Partizan) Belgrade.
Besiktas have arguably the best of fans in Turkey (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Çarşı_(supporter_group)) - pronounced Charshi rather than karzie

Thoughts:
- Great to see Walker (and Townsend) back
- Capoue has obviously been partially rehabilitated back into the setup
- Great that Mason, Kane and Eriksen have been rested - they looked the most exhausted at the weekend
- I would like to have seen a young forward travel, perhaps a Ceballos, Oduwa or Miller
