Potential banana skin i guess and i hope we get past this one …our home matches to date below…if only we were playing Chelsea or Arsenal

Three home wins

Man Utd
Tottenham
Man City

Three draws

Ipswich
Notts Forest
Wolves

I’m hopeless at guessing who starts…..but play 11 for sure
Well. Maybe but Last season we lost at home to Arsenal, Chelsea, Man Utd, and Man City.

But we did beat teams that were 16th, 17th, and 18th!

Those draws v Burnley, Sheff Utd, Fulham , Wolves were of course frustrating though.

Our WINS >>
Luton (18th)
Newcastle (7th)
Bournemouth (12th)
Brentford (16th)
Spurs (6th)
Palace (10th)
Forest (17th)
Villa (4th)

I think - like a few of you do - it's the same team that started last week with Wieffer for Baleba.

Whilst I'd prefer to see O'Riley start we have 3 games in a week and Weiffer is never going to get a better confidence booster than Southampton at home and he did well enough when he came on against Bournemouth.

O'Riley will surely start one of Fulham or Leicester.

So Dunk, Minteh, Lamptey are back in the squad and (possibly) Kadioglu. No Baleba due to the suspension.
No Hinshelwood, March (although he must be close now given training pix), Milner.

So looks like its 11 from this 21 or 22.

Verbruggen, Steele
Lamptey, Veltman, JPVH, Igor, Dunk, Estupinan + Kadioglu ?
Moder, Ayari, Wieffer, O Riley
Minteh, Mitoma, Adingra, Gruda
Georginho, Pedro, Enciso
Welbeck, Ferguson

*EDIT - missed out Gruda. Minteh was ill last week which explains his Bournemouth absence.
Where are you getting the Minteh availability from? In today's broadcast press conference, FH didn't mention him directly (TBF he wasn't asked), but said that beyond Dunk and Lamptey all others were the same as last week -- I took that to mean that Minteh isn't available.

O'Reilly will surely start one of Fulham or Leicester.
O'Riley might - we'll surely get in trouble for fielding a player like O'Reilly whom we haven't registered.

Jokes aside, I wonder if O'Riley will receive the hostile reception at Fulham that Carvalho did in the Brentford game. Turned down the offer of a four year deal at 19 despite not having a new club lined up.

Pervis has played a lot & had a baby so time for a rest. We're also playing with fire with Welbz too, so time for a rest - and Minteh's talents for pressing will be very useful against Southampton. I'd possibly play Ferguson for Rutter - pros and cons with both.

Quite …who knows how it will all end..but one hopes for the best ..I do find the contrast in the results from those six matches quite interesting

Up against a team shitter than the three we drew against, this is a banker away win.

Nailed on, glued, tarred and feathered.

Last time we played Southampton at the Amex Just LAST YEAR !! They were rock bottom of the table , we needed to win to get into Europe no less AND ...WE DID. No sign of glue, tar or feathers or indeed, nails.

Rutter's still cup-tied. Why do you think everyone's picking Georginho in his place?
