Don't play Son in this game please.
I have a bad feeling that Man shitty will try to injure Son badly, just like they did it to Kane.
Chances of winning this one is very slim anyway, so save Son for winnable ones.
I don't get how anyone is saying this game doesn't matter. Of course it matters. We still have to take care of the bread and butter business in the league, no matter what. If we want to be a big club, we have to have more than one iron in the fire at any given time. It's still a long shot for us to win the CL, so we have to go and secure a CL place for next season via top 4, which was always our number one priority.
Dier might be back apparently.
Said this in another thread but, bulk CM up with CBs (only depth we have atm!).... Playing Vic 3 times in a week is asking for trouble and he'll be massive in the next couple of weeks. Meanwhile feels like we'd be throwing Skipp to the lions (This'll get proper tasty if it's not going City's way)...
Assuming Winks and Sissoko are out:
Boss
KWP / Dav / Jan / Ben
TA / CE / Foyth
Son / Dele / Lucas
Toby & Juan to play like aux. CBs.... Screening; cleaning up for CE and the FBs. Whilst Sonny & Lucas defend from the front and try to keep their FBs busy.
If we can stay competitive there's points on the horizon.
Id play toby and jan in their natural positions. Extra defenders can go in midfield.Said this in another thread but, bulk CM up with CBs (only depth we have atm!)....
