Don’t you think Bernie plays in the middle alongside Kovacic ?

I reckon Lewis will play there

Would have preferred Grealish in there, just because it's going to get pretty end-to-end this afternoon and he tends to shine in these big games by knowing exactly when to hold and when to go. But for all we know he might not be fully up to speed yet.

Big well done to Lewis for getting himself in the team for this, and I like the narrow and packed and scrappy midfield. Think we've come here to try and do a job on them like last time where we don't have much of the ball but try to hit on the break or win the ball back just inside their half.

Imagine our average positions will end up looking like:

I wouldn't select Lewis against Arsenal away, but otherwise, I think it's a great team.

Why not, I trust Pep.

 

[Blue Steel]

Should be enough to beat Arsenal.

Pep’s missed an opportunity to put Grealish in midfield today.

 

[RobinHood]

Why not, I trust Pep.

I trust Lewis after his last game.

Would liked to have seen Doku...he would have completely destroyed Zinchenko.

Second half……72 minutes

Why not, I trust Pep.

I trust Pep as well. I just think Arsenal will target him, and it's an enormous pressure for an 18-year-old. Pep knows best, though, so hopefully Rico can handle it.

I reckon Lewis will play there

If we aren't square pegging.....

Walker-Dias-Gvardiol-Ake
---------Lewis--------Kova-----
------Bernie---Alvarez---Foden

Scruffy looking sod.
