Lua Lua HAS to be on the bench.

Would sell him if it was up to me.

I agree and would prefer to see March there to bring on when Buckley/Orlandi lose their effectiveness and then have a bright spark to run at the tiring defence,

We dont need both on the bench so would go with March.

I am pretty sure Garcia has said Agustien will not be starting due to fitness

You're all thinking too Gus-like.

El-Abd rather than Greer for his longer passes

One striker, with other 2 front players playing close to him. Barnes has looked the better pre-Season.

How soon is now?
Oscar hast stated that he likes to play with two wingers, going forward this is great. However, I think we may be a bit exposed on he back foot unless we go for a defensive midfield trio, and that doesn't leave a lot of room for Spanish Dave and Orlandi if he goes with Buckley and KLL as his wingers.
Dave and Orlandi showed some great link up play against Norwich, are either these two wingers? Both strike me as roaming midfielders.
I can name a back 6 and Ulloa, but the rest I think will be less obvious

I would agree with the inclusion of Soli March, worked hard in pre season and the only likely looking scorer against Norwich, I do believe that Buckley has to start to produce something as he is trading on past glories at the moment, he looks slower, tentative and without confidence from the person that he was when he joined us. Orlandi needs to learn how to score, two massive howlers in front of goal against both Villa Real and Norwich, these need not be repeated when it counts. BUT, Dave must start, no doubt he will be the difference this year and the only real play maker we have, Bridcutt looked slow, unsure and behind the pace of the game in the recent two friendlies and Crofts, well, i'm just not sure what he does.

This but March for Barker. If Ulloa got injured then would switch Barnes, really don't think Barker is good enough, too lightweight.

Think Crofts will start for either Lopez Orlandi. For me will be:-
PIG
Calde
Upson
Greer
Bruno
Bridcutt
Crofts
Lopez
Buckley
Barnes
Ulloa

Lopez and Buckley as the wide players but with both encouraged to cut inside and both wing switching. I'd have both March and Lua Lua on bench to bring on later.
Subs:- Brez, ElAbd, Orlandi, Lua Lua, March, JFC, Maxi
