Burnley (H) - Sat 16 Oct 15:00 | Pre-Match Thread

[Tb1981]

A game which is perfect for delap
With bruge midweek
6- 1

No chance
Now it’s time for us to push on and get to the top of the league and try to put a run together
Not the time to start being complacent

 

[117 M34]

---------------------------Ederson
Walker----------Dias----------Laporte----------Cancelo
-----------------------------Rodri
---------------------KDB------------Silva
Jesus------------------Torres------------------------Foden

I think that's our strongest team, at least until Gundogan comes back anyway.

Who do you think gundo replaces to make up our strongest team?
Personally, with the way Bernardo is playing in the middle I don't think gundo is 1st choice

 

[Xhavenjoe]

Stones surly to play this one. Mahrez and Sterling will be startling I imagine too.

I wish they were startling

 

[The Black Shed]

Fill yer boots lads, it's time to up that GD

 

[wolfie1988]

Ederson and Jesus will be unavailable. Their final Brazil game doesn't kick off until 01:30 BST on Friday 15th October

I'm fine with having Torres up front against most teams but against the better sides we're more likely to play without a striker. In those games, I think our best option would be Bernardo and Gundogan in midfield with KDB as the false nine or some variation of that. But essentially Torres would be the one to miss out in the big games.

Time for Rodri's first good performance of the season ;)

 

[BringBackSwales]

Are Ederson and Jesus actually available for this game?

They will be available but if either plays the game on the Friday morning, they won't play for us on Saturday

 

[BringBackSwales]

Where is the game on the Friday morning, in South America?

 

[Xhavenjoe]

Let's hope they get dropped for Allison and Firminho so.

 

[Pelegrinni]

Why has Torres not featured in recent games?
Really likes his movement and eyes for goal.
