Well well well. This happened:

Connolly starts. I've had a quick scroll through and can only see three posters who put him in their line up...but they didn't pick the full 11 correctly so it seems like Potter has pulled a fast one on all of us.

I'm looking forward to seeing three out and out strikers on the pitch at the same time.

Which led to this:

I’m now thinking Potter reads this and picks him team to screw the majority of us :blush:

Three strikers against the Premier League Champions? I suppose you've got to hit them where they are weak, if we had a Striker who could hit a barn door with a banjo, Potter would have been lapping up plaudits from across the country will a well crafted victory, oh well.

25 Pickers got within one player of Potter's starting line-up but the inclusion of Connolly stumped everyone (including the Liverpool defence) with the exception of [MENTION=266]Don Tmatter[/MENTION], [MENTION=29094]HalfaSeatOn[/MENTION] and [MENTION=10816]dale jasper football guru[/MENTION]. Plenty of folk still picking Alzate, if only Potter was as keen on him as the rest of us, still, Groß is performing well enough.

Our leader is once again NEASTGULL who is joined by 9 other centurions on 100+ points.

How to play:

As per usual, you just need to select Potter’s starting 11 alongside his starting formation.

1 point - Correctly selected player
3 points - Correctly selected formation
11 points - Bonus if you correctly select the whole team and formation.

Competition closes just before the official team release!

It's easy!



So . . . . . .the press conference is done. Lallana is out with Propper almost definitely missing and Maupay to be assessed nearer to kick-off. Southampton love a high press so the team selection should be interesting. We know Ings (if he plays) will only need a single chance to punish us, how will we deny him?

Will Potter play a team to play out from the back?
Will Maupay recover in time?
Will wel see the return of the Ali-Mac?
Lamptey will be straight back in . . . . or will he?
How can Potter drop the impressive Veltman?

YOU DECIDE!

Have you got what it takes to Predict Potter's Picks?

It's over to you

(if that looks suspiciously like the team above from jackalbion that's because it is the same. It was my first thought, honest guv, then I scrolled down and said to myself "oh FFS").

I think Potter is going to be a bit careful with Welbeck considering his history and rest him every now and then. White moving up to midfield to help deal with their midfield, allowing Lamptey to focus more on attacking Vestergaard & Bertrand rather than defending.

4 games in 14 days coming up. There is going to be plenty of chopping and changing.

However, I think we’ll play a very similar way to last Saturday trying to exploit Southampton’s high line and high press.
