So who the fuck should have come on for the defenders?? Do you not understand Laporte isn't fit, Fernandinho is a 37 year old midfielder, Walker Stones and Dias are injured and Ake isn't fit. Cancelo and Zinchenko are there for what they bring to the attack not necessarily the defence? It's the way we play and have done for years

I'd prefer De Bruyne in defence rather than Fern. Most games our centre backs are halfway into the opposition half anyway, but the main thing they need to have is some sort of recovery pace.

Not saying I'd want Kev there ideally, but we have other options further forward. Sticking him back would remove the (previously awesome) 37 year old from the lineup.

Is this a piss take?

If this is a genuine opinion, then no offence, but that is mental mate.

Maybe it is mental, but not a piss take no. :-D

Kev's quality, he could play anywhere, he could still hit quality passes playing a little deeper.

If he was back there, we could still have Rodri in front of him giving some security, alongside Bernardo and Gundo. We could still have any 3 of 6 upfront. It would be a quality lineup and one with better recovery pace for when Villa inevitably hit longballs over the top for Watkins, when Fern just wouldn't be able to keep up.

It's Kyle who is willing. He's still sore but he's ready to put it on the line, which would mean serious strapping and injections.

Hmm, as much as I want him to play I can't help thinking play through injections could make his ankle 10x worse as do serious damage.

It's a tough one. The chances of injuries to al three of them at the same time ffs.
