    Clues on Saturday about what formation we're likely to use?

    I'd prefer a solid 4-4-2. Two massive centre halves, two violent fullbacks, two psychotic central midefielders and a pair of tricky wingers. Get it wide, get the wingers to the bye-line and get it into the mixer for the big lad to knock down to the little lad.

    Let's get back to doing this thing properly.

    Will there be bullet headers? I a bullet header, me. Goals scored with the feet are OK, I suppose, but a bit effete (effeet?). Nothing touches a good, old-fashioned bullet header.

    If we're talking diving bullet headers I can see where you're coming from. A bullet header where the striker remains erect? Meh #stapleton

    Erect or not, I just like a quick ball in, a powerful impact and the keeper left with no chance.

    By contrast, I despise goals scored from glancing headers. Can't see the point of those at all.

    But your actual galncing, diving header is the second best type of goal of all, after the 'outside of the boot curled into the near post' goal.

    I'm afraid you don't seem to have got the hang of this yet.

    I thought when Aubameyang arrived it would have a negative effect on Lacazette.

    However they are clearly in love with each other

    That, my friend, is because Lacazette has what we term technically 'a kind face'.

    I hope Lacazette doesn't get jealous when Aubameyang wants to hang out with his Dortmund clique.

    Perhaps they are actually in love? Think what a forward pairing who are in perfect sexual and spiritual harmony could achieve?

    Try to picture Sunderland and Stapleton making sweet, sweet love
