[Albion] Team for Sunday ..the opening game against Man Utd

[LamieRobertson]

Well it’s not that long now…how exciting ..will that left back play or not …pushing that aside and move the match centre stage ..name your starting eleven

 

[Icy Gull]

I have more chance of playing than Cucu

 

[LamieRobertson]

I have more chance of playing than Cucu

I was referring to Solly (ok he's more wing back)

 

[Swansman]

Think it will be very similar to the team that beat Espanyol. Maybe Lamptey or Lallana for Mwepu.

Why do you think Mwepu might not start

 

[scooter1]

Mac Allister came off holding his groin against Espanyol, I hope that was just precautionary

 

[Swansman]

Why do you think Mwepu might not start

Manchester United are going to have much quicker defense-attack transitions this season and two ways to counter that is to either have the pace (Lamptey) to match them when they play it out to their wingers or the control (Lallana) to avoid them getting too many opportunities to attack. Mwepu is a high risk/high reward player and while that is absolutely going to be very useful throughout the season, I'm not sure if it makes him the best option for this game. But I may well be wrong - not going to eat hats and stuff if he starts.

 

[RandyWanger]

If you do the BBC predictor you can choose BDB and Bissouma

 

[Dave the hatosaurus]

I'll go for the obvious and say the exact same 11 as started against Espanyol .

 

[Cowfold Seagull]

Solly is fine . . . until he has to defend.

I thought his spell at LWB before he got injured and Cucurella came along was the best he's ever played for us. His failing, I'd say, is the final ball. As a hard-working wing-back he does a decent job. Mitoma is an option in that position too I believe.

If it has to be Solly then it has to be Solly. Certainly l'd rather seem him start there than Mitoma. Far too big a game to be making his debut in l would think.

My starting XI would be

-----------------Sanchez
---------Veltman Dunk Webster
Lamptey Lallana MacAllister March
----------Gross -------Trossard

Steele / Van Hecke / Alzate / Mwepu / Mitoma / Undav / Maupay / Sarmiento / Enciso

Where's Caicedo? Otherwise yep, l'd go with that.

 

[Nobby Cybergoat]

errrr, forgot about Caicedo. Sorry Moises. Go on then, i'll drop Lallana

 

[Badger]

Saves having to waste a substituion when he gets injured in the 13th minute.

No one trusts the new boys? Interesting.

We have no need to throw them in at the deep end
