With 2 winnable games ahead, what would your team be to pick up much needed points?
For me I’d try this:
———————————Sanchez——————————-
Veltman————White—————-Dunk———-——Burn
———————————Bissouma——————————
————-Groß———————————Mac Allister———
———————————Lallana———————————-...
With GP giving the reason for Duffers absence from the squad this afternoon being him needing emergency dental work.
What do we guess the reason for this was?
Can’t any of our players take on and beat opposition players ?
Do we insist on trying to pick our way through the middle of the opposition defence rather that use the flanks?
Don’t our players shoot immediately when in sight of goal rather than taking 2 or 3 more touches?
Don’t our players...
Does anyone around in the late 80’s / early 90’s remember a fad of people placing different coloured builders hard hats on the rear parcel shelf or dashboard to act as a code for being open to differing nefarious activities?
Came up in a conversation the other day and I vaguely remembered it...
Webster to have a ‘rest’ ? Bissouma back in? Connolly to start? All yes for me.

Arteta and Trollope had a difference of opinion, anyone see what it was over?
I can’t remember our players arguing over taking a free kick on such a scale before, would Bissouma have done any better than Dunk did?
How many of the starting XI for this will play 3 days later? Helps that it’s the start of a gruelling month rather than the finish.
Would you risk a couple of youngsters, give Burn or Balogun a run out?
No one started one of these yet?

Goldson purely for his better pace/athleticism than Duffy...

Are we one of the 2 PL clubs to have enquired after him?

Never heard anything like it before not as if it was a County League match or parks football.
Which of the above, held down a place in our first season at the top level?
Both keepers did iirc until Steele & Williams had their Old Trafford disagreement and Steele was forced out.
John Gregory was brought in at right back to replace Cattlin wasn't he?
Gary Williams did iirc
Lawro obviously...
Haven't seen one of these started yet, so
