Kick off time 14:00 (BST).

We lost this fixture last season as well, going to be another difficult game, especially if we play like that.

----------------Ederson
Khusanov--Stones--Dias--Gvardiol/RAN
---------Rodri----------Nico
Bobb---------Reijnders------Foden
--------------Haaland
 
Ederson

Khusonov---Stones---Gvardiol-----Alr Nouri

Rodri

Reignders Foden/bernardo

Cherki/Bobb----Haaland -----Marmoush/Doku

If Rodri isnt fit to start if has to be Nico

If alt -nouri aint fit to start its either Ake or OReilly

Big game already - need to get on track - Big week for Pep on the training field


No Rico anywhere near the team or bench
Trafford needs to earn the number one shirt not just be given it.
Drop Dias
 
Pep really needs to consider switching to a back three — it would help them play out from the back more comfortably and deal better with balls in behind. That goal they conceded was far too soft, and the reaction at the back was shockingly slow

But for now

Trafford

Nunes
Stones
Gvardiol
O'Reilly

Rodri
Reijnders
Cherki

Foden
Bobb
Haaland
 
We need to return to a midfield 3, we got to be careful in this one otherwise it could go sour real quick.

Donnarumma, Khusanov or Livramento, Gvardiol, Stones or Khusanov, Alt Nouri, Rodri, Rejneders, Foden, Haaland, Cherki (rw) Rodrygo

As good as Godri is we cant leave even him isolated in a midfield and that is what playing Reijnders does in that set up

I guess the difference however is having Khusonov back there to mop up which may make a difference
 
I voted draw.
Last weekend I tried not to take too much away from a good result at Wolves with Wolves being Rubbish.
But the drop off today was mind blowing.
Surely we cant very that bad again. CTID
 
Predicted a loss but hopefully we can see an improved performance and snatch a point.
 
If Gvardiol and Ait Nour are fit and Rodri has 60 minutes of game time, then I'll start with this starting 11.

In possession of the ball.

..........................Trafford..............................



....khusanov........................Gvardiol..........

Bobb.....Cherki..........Reijnders....Ait Nouri

Khusanov, Gvardiol, Donnarumma, Rodrygo, a new RB, and I can see a comfortable win for us.

Well after today the players heads will be down, and Brighton's no easy fixture with which to try to get your show back on the road ..... I think it's around the time of this fixture last season that our season hit that lengthly rocky spell, and everything went 'tits up'!

Am going for the draw more in hope than expectation!
