Ortega
Khusanov
Akanji
Gvardiol
Ait-nouri
Gundogan
Bernardo
Nico
Nunes
Echeverri
Haaland

could be a back 5 with wingbacks but just as easily could be a standard back 4 and Nunes is pushed up onto the wing.

Either way it's a weird lineup, pep has botched these 2 lineups. first one was too full of attacking players, this one has too many controllers and not enough flair. Want to see a viable premier league lineup to get us used to playing together not some mismatched pre-season lineup we wouldn't dream of playing against wolves.

Nothing to do with being southern hemisphere mate. South Africans are only an hour ahead.

But I’m on the same time zone as western Oz and I’m in the northern hemisphere and often have to get up at 3am and 4am for matches (or midnight last week).

I should actually have said for those living in distant time zones. The game today (Monday) is a 1:00pm kick-off here in NZ - just after lunch when I usually just relax after working outside until about noon.

Hope for something like that. I think we have the perfect players to run this formation this season (defense the same with dias for akanji, rodri-reijnders for nico-gundo, marmoush-cherki for bernardo-echeverri), so it would be good to try it out - especially the wingbacks.

I think this is how we’re lining up. Makes perfect sense with the players we have now. Loads of Centre backs and with full backs who are better at attacking than defending. Very good plan b, with plan A being our usual one with wingers (Doku, Marmoush, Savio)

I wouldn't be surprised if we go to a back 5 with wingbacks against the park the bus teams next season
 
got to say this is without doubt the best stadium i have ever been in. concourse area is immense. helps that no fucker is here yet . You can actually sit at the bar on a bar stool and watch the game. and to think 25 years ago i queued for a piss in the one toilet at Layer Road and Moss Rose etc
