Realistic starting 11 and squad for next season

[Rammy Blue]

Phil Neville is pathetic as a pundit, unable to show any degree of neutrality, unlike his brother. Good to see Football365 call him out on Mediawatch the other day:



Even better to see Carlos Puyol take him out in the Soccer 6s last night. To paraphrase one of Neville's ex-colleagues, take that you ****.

That's a shocking challenge, hahaha

That would mean the bench was: G Jesus, Stones, Sane, Sterling, Fernandinho, Toure, Bravo, Kolorov. Now that is quite a strong bench!

Can't name 8 on the bench ;) Also we will sign Bertrand, so probably Bertrand on the bench instead of Kolarov and either Fernandinho or Yaya in the stand, assuming there's ever a moment in the season when we have ZERO injuries!!

I'd read that the PL were discussing putting it up from 7 to 9, so thought I'd put 8 down! I did put Bertrand down but decided that would mean the transfer wouldn't happen if I did....

It's officially my fault that the deal is now off ;)

I know. I've swerved a bullet there!

I think this would be an interesting side:

---------------------Ederson
--------Otamendi Kompany Kolarov
Walker----De Bruyne Gundogan---Sané
--------Sterling---------------Silva
--------------------Aguero--

I think the purchases of Walker and Mendy make 3-at-the-back a very real option for us next season.

Ederson and Kompany + 9 others is my guess.
Nobody will get it right and it won't be the same line up game-to-game.
Going to be fun to watch though that's for sure.

Me before the takeover: watching from behind the sofa
Me after the takeover: watching really close to the screen, panting like a dog on a hot day, tail wagging.

I would insert some gifs but cannot be arsed!
