Don't think we'll start Moore (17 years old, one PL start, just back from a lengthy illness) or Richarlison (just back from injury and potentially now injury prone) in the NLD.

I know its not ideal, but we all know Johnson, Werner and Son offer absolutely nothing against a low block.

I really wouldnt want to move Kulu out of ACM, so perhaps we could try Maddison at narrow LWF? He's done that for England before hasnt he, the sort of Foden role?
 
I think Ange will put out the following -

Kinsky

Porro
Drags
Gray
Spence

Bissouma
Bergvall
Sarr

Deki
Dom
Sonny

subs: Forster, Moore, Johnson, Werner, Maddison, Reggie, Richarlison, Lankshear, Olusesi

It leaves us pretty spare in defence, where really, the only thing we could do if a CB goes down is move Spence across and bring Reggie on. But I will say our attacking/creative options would be pretty good. I think Moore would have a field day, Johnson is always pretty good off the bench, and you'd think if Maddison does not start he'll be primed to go...as for Richy, well, if he is there I think he could get the go ahead winning goal!!!

COYS! FTG!
 
I’m already frustrated because if we went there, sat back and soaked up the pressure we can hit them on the break and I think we’d get a result. But we will attack them, they’ll play through our press and they’ll do us quite easily. tinkles me off

That's the line up I'm expecting

Ah yes, I remember all the times we have gone to the Emirates and just sat back and invited pressure - it always ends well.....

I hear you but the way both our teams are currently set up, I fear for us if we go there and try to attack them. I think we will anyway so I hope I'm wrong

I reckon you've nailed the team.

I'm assuming Bentancur is back after suspension? He will share the 90 mins with the other midfielders.

If recent games against big teams serves as a guide we'll probably press high for periods, but also be happy enough to drop deeper when we can't press high.

I think that's a good approach for us. Wouldn't want this team under this manager try to sit back and soak up pressure as the main approach.

We've caused better teams than them real problems with our pressing.

Key for me will he how and when we drop off our high press and playing with enough intensity also when not pressing high. Of course also what we do on the ball ourselves and avoiding the bigger individual errors.
