He's right not to play O'Riley, he's nowhere near ready. Would be very harsh to start Gomez as well. He's got this one right. Beyond bare bones in centre mid
Massively risky line up. I said yesterday this has villa away vibes from last season. But who knows... Strong players in the first 11. Not an awful lot on the bench
Feel for lamptey and Hinshelwood. Could be hung out to dry.
Think you're living in dream world.
Arsenal signed trossard off us who is is nowhere near mitoma standard with the added bonus of an attitude. (And he plays most weeks)
Mitoma is a better player , has a big fan club , is a model pro. All the big top 6 will be looking at him as a massive...
I think he stays as he doesn't want to play in saudi
But I'm convinced he will go to a top 6 EPL club in the summer for half the money the saudis are offering and we will be able to do nothing about it.
Yer as I said earlier its fairly likely arsenal or some such will come in anyway in the summer at 30 odd million. That would be more annoying. I would rather mitoma took the money and didn't go to some irritating top 6 club.
