We need to be careful not to concede free kicks around the box. Even Diaz and Stonesy cant keep out worldies. Won't be easy but hopefully we'll get control the game and win by a couple of goals. I reckon 3-1 to us.

Hopefully see a big reaction to Sunday and a few players given the opportunity to put the record straight. I think Jesus needs to start as well otherwise that performance on Sunday will weigh heavy on his shoulders.

Good chance to get back on the bike for our lads tonight, very winnable but also a potential banana skin if we’re not quite at it, will also show if recent matches are a blip or something more, it has felt like we’re going through the motions a little, maybe too many home games/or just games in quick succession? A little trip to Hungary will sort that out. Phil & Bernie will definitely start (which should appease many) Mahrez & Kev could do with a rest, Stones will deffo get one, not a fan of starting Sergio as his fitness isn’t quite there yet but a good 30 min cameo would be good, we’ve got to start the game with intent

Could tonight's game be off if the storm comes later on?

I think we all know the team we want to see.

Steffen
Stones, Garcia, Mendy (back 3)
Fern, gundo, rodders,
Mahrez, sterling, jesus
Ederson up front

Swap KDB for Gundogan and Laporte for Stones and you'd have the Bluemoon booboys XI almost perfectly.

Although I reckon people would be excited about Ederson.

Hold on Gabby is starting and on the bench!

He misses to many chances for me at the moment...……………….

 

[CityEssex49er]

How many Gabbys do we have

I put my hands up; I'm a knob head......start Gabby...…………...

 

[GaudinoMotors]

We have lost 4 times when Mendy has started.

Not first choice but not as bad as some make out.

Duke of Edinburgh on the left?

You're two Gabby mate,

Thanks for pointing out - Gabby to start
