axman2526 Posted November 12 Share Posted November 12 Maybe an international break to allow those many jangled nerves to settle down from the past 2 games is not a bad thing? Well thread is ready for when the game gets closer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sconnie Blue Posted November 13 Share Posted November 13 Will have to be Gallagher and Caicedo in the midfield. Enzo arriving late. Sterling, Palmer, Mudryk and Jackson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think Poch would pick Nkunku over Mudryk? I think Nkunku will be brought back slowly. He's just missed three months, no point in rushing him. We don't want a re-injury.

axman2526 Posted November 14 Author Share Posted November 14 (edited) Enzo needs a rest imo. He has the same travel as caicedo, but Moisess Ecuador are facing poor sides, Enzo is coming up against the Uruguay sh*housers and then THE SA derby vs Brazil. It is not ideal, we will miss him badly, but we should take the hit for his own good and to get the best out of him long term this season. With that in mind, and with Nkunku and Lavia most likely coming on from the bench, I would make just one change from City, provided their are no more injuries. Sanchez James Disasi Silva Cucurella Caicedo Gallagher Sterling Palmer Mudryk Jackson I would aim for the usual Mudryk 60 minute sub, Nkunkus debut. If we are winning Lavia replacing Sterling and Gallagher going further forward. If drawing or losing Lavia for Caicedo. Broja for Jackson around 70 minutes.

ozboy Posted November 18 Share Posted November 18 Tough games for Caicedo and Enzo in South America. Really not sure picking them against Newcastle will be the best option. axman2526 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can we go with Conor plus Lesley or Lavia and expect our midfield not to be destroyed though? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dermott Posted November 18 Share Posted November 18 Hopefully last night for England isn't a setback for Conor. He was poor, caught in possession, giving the ball away. Not that he was the only one. In his defence, he was frequently sold short by shoddy passing from the back, Maguire and Tomori in particular. And partnered in midfield by the useless Henderson, and Alexander Arnold who might have an immaculate pass in his tool kit but, even in midfield, remains clueless defensively. cfr95 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIP Mourinho Posted November 20 Share Posted November 20 8 days of rest between the Newcastle and Brighton game the following week. See no reason we should be resting anyone for this one. Newcastle away at PSG 3 days after our game, they should be the ones concerned with resting players. Sanchez Reece Silva Badiashile Cucurella Enzo Caicedo Palmer Gallagher Sterling Jackson Not against Disasi starting but Badiashile is the better player so want to see him in the line up when fit. If Enzo is clearly struggling, plenty of options on the bench. Gonoir Beniashile and The Don Antonio 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A\though have to see what happens in Ukraine v Italy I'm all for resting one of Enzo/Caicedo but I think resting both at once is a bit risky. Maybe 45 mins each would reduce risk of overworking them without completely throwing our midfield out of whack? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sconnie Blue Posted November 20 Share Posted November 20 Reading Newcastle will likely lineup like this at the moment. Big risk for them to push the likes of Almrion and Isak after recent injuries. Other than that, not as ridiculous as the media is playing it out to be.
