This is another with 2 different stated start times.

2230 and 2245. 

As we've seen with the last couple of preseason games, start times aren't exactly 100% guys. 

 
I'd start with this. Team needs to learn how to play without James in the team given his suspension. See how Nkunku does as a winger in this set up too. 

Jörgensen​

Gusto Fofana Tosin Colwill​

Lavia​

Enzo  KDH​

Madueke    Guiu    Nkunku​

Remember when Sarri Ball encountered Citeh? We lost 6-0. I wonder if we shall see that again OR will it be like the 4-4 of last season?  Most likely this game will end in a low scoring draw.

Yeah, despite that Sarri's team only gave up 39 goals. Sarri made Rudiger significantly better in his system.

The backline looks very good in this high line and high pressing system IF the two lines above them win the ball back in a good rate and doesn't give it up easily. Basically backline plays as the creator and the last ditch lock. It is very different role to one where the football is played up and down. 

You can't judge any of our defenders so far as the press haven't worked at all up the pitch.

 
It's the weekend so no excuses not to stay up and watch this...(says the guy literally falling asleep and only posting to try and stay awake) 😆

I'll create the next and final 2 preseason friendlies after this match...its my way of trying to stay awake till the end. Lol

Any guesses on first 11 yet?

 
I stay awake by eating🙂a light meal or snack works wonders.

Tonight : cheese and tomato toasted sandwich with relish🙂
