Injured surely.

love that front 3

Wilson? Interesting

No Brewster? So ready to be sold I suppose

Didn’t expect such a strong team.

interesting line up.

Wilson in, jota, minamino, salah.

where will not so young Wilson play.

clearly brewster deal is close. there's no interest in Wilson so this is shop window.

same for gruijic.

Wilson playing for the shop window no doubt

I know we dont have much cover at the minute but I really wish we would stop taking the chance of playing vvd in these games.

Hopefully, regardless of the scoreline, he will be wheeked off at half time as he was against lincoln.

Looks like the gimps have named their team


Leno, Cedric, Gabriel, Holding, Kolasinac, Ceballos, Willock, Xhaka, Pepe, Nketiah, Saka

Glad to see Wilson finally getting a chance.

I disagree strongly. I hate when a young team/ reserves are chucked in and there's no structure or leadership and it all falls apart. This knocks confidence as well as just generally making it harder to shine. Look at how Gomez has come on with VVD next to him. If he'd been played next to Lovren he would not look half the player now. Having VVD gives the 2 Williams' someone to learn the system off plus someone to bail them out every now and again.

Same with Salah. What's the point of putting Minamino in to see if he can do the Firmino job if he's got Origi and Elliot either side being far less effective. How good would Firmino look with those 2 beside him? You have to give youth and reserve players a basis on which to show what they can do.

He'll play a half like last time I'd imagine.

Yeah he can player furthest forward in a midfield three. Although it could be Minamino in there and Salah up front. We'll see.

This.

Definitely a shop window appearance for Wilson. Can only imagine Shaqiri is close to leaving too.

Well put. The experience gained from playing alongside VVD in a genuine competitive fixture is invaluable to someone like Williams, and better than a dozen u23 games.
