Alexis, Ox, Welbeck, Arteta, Jack, Debuchy all out but

[Nicosia Gooner]

we still have a very strong squad

Ospina
Bellerin BFG Kos Mon

Coq Rambo

Theo Santa Rocky

Giroud

Subs: Szcz, Gabriel, Gibbs, Chambers, Flamini, Ozil, Akpom

[Luis Anaconda]

Three defenders on the bench - hardly ideal

[Steve Williams - gay for Mark Knopfler]

[Classic Jorge]

It's not like we're going to face a less attacking team than Villa any time soon.

[Luis Anaconda]

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

The title push starts here.

[Nicosia Gooner]

:hehe:

Will we need more than 2 forwards on the bench?

:-| Nobody finds you funny.

[Pokster]

but if he was going to rest him, Sundau seems as good a game as any

[Pokster]

[Nicosia Gooner]

[Pokster]

[Classic Jorge]

Especially his counter terrorism and special weapons and tactics based ones.

[Rich]

In that case - no, I don't think Bournemouth could afford Mesut Ozil. Hope this helps.

[Classic Jorge]

Though I doubt his patients find it very amusing.

[Nicosia Gooner]

[Steve Williams - gay for Mark Knopfler]

Give the lad the day off. He may go to Madame Tussauds for instance and be ready for battle next week.

[Red N White Army]

[Luis Anaconda]

Young Jos did well too

[Ben.]

also, I like him but when was the last time Ravi got any runs?

[Billy Goat Sverige]

all with the bat and nothing with the ball either.

[Luis Anaconda]

Yeah Ravi is living on borrowed time ... again. Trouble is Ballance or Hales like to bat higher up the order. Difficult to see who they can bring in - plus we'd lose a decent bowling option

[Luis Anaconda]

shame Stokes isn't there but you can't blame them for dropping him. He was in awful form

[Ben.]

Stokes would have been the one, although prior to teh big bash his form was worse than Bopara :-(
