Bournemouth (A) - Sat 2nd Nov, 15:00 | PL | Pre-Match Thread

You said he hadn't ever grabbed a game by scruff of the neck, I gave a very recent example. We need him to do it this season, but just as he stepped up last season, I'm sure he will again. It's a long season.

He also bossed the 4-0 Brighton away game near the end of the season...I was there and he was unbelievable that night

Mate he's bossed absolutely loads lol against the rags multiple times, Dortmund away in Champions League honestly I could go on and on.

So 6 others for the bench then including Oretega & Carson - who won't start? (Assuming we have the max number.)

would guess mcatee and one of the cb's also on the bench if akanji is fit as reported.

Assuming Gvardiol and savinho are out for this one then :

Ederson
Akanji stones Dias ake
Kovacic gundo foden
Nunes haaland Bernardo

Bench: Ortega, Carson, Lewis, mcatee, wright, o Reilly, Simpson-Pusey

would be my guess

Phil going through what loads of players do after a long run in a national tourny after the previous season. A combination of more games, little rest and the emotional toll. He’ll have gone into it expecting big performances and must feel let down by the ex-manager. He’ll come good eventually.

Ederson
Lewis. Dias. Ake. Gvardiol

Yep that's the 11 for me, apart from i think Lewis will start ahead of Akanji, fitness dictating. If Gvardiol makes it (unsure on his status?) he'll be benched. Savinho won't.

Bernardo and Nunes swapped over.

 

[big gaz]

Do you track back?

No but she stalkes well ;-)
