Jorginho and Partey looks to be a very pedestrian midfield, if selected. Wonder if young Ethan’s up to it yet ?
We are going to absolutely hammer them. 7. Hope Ethan does play but feel Trossard will drop back in MO position. Partey will be given a a bit more licence to get forward with Jorgi sitting. I think Partey still has the legs for it but we also have the most athletic defence in our history. In the bag
Agree re Trossard. Their ludicrously high line squeezing the space in midfield so old legs have slightly less ground to cover. We'll miss Rice at corners. That and counter attacks are our best route to goals.
I'm not confident at all but it has nothing to do with our injury 'crisis' (which appears to consist of two players). We haven't played well so far this season and that idiotic international break is going to have left tired players even worse off. I just want it over and done with.
