Very much doubt either will be risked on Saturday. This close to the international break, I think it's an ideal time to get players fully fit again.

I expect to see this on Saturday

Sa
Semedo Santi Bueno Kilman Doherty
Gomes Lemina
RAN Doyle Sarabia
Fraser

Early goal and no dramas please

Surely it will be Doyle deeper and Lemina further forwards?

Fluid system with players inter changing *

Surely it will be RAN on the left and Sarabia on the right?

I feel that Lemina will play further forward and he does have an eye for goals,
The five in midfield are so interchangeable that it makes no difference where he plays them.

No.

I'd have both Bueno's tbh - about time Hugo was given another shot

I like Bueno but though Doherty was excellent on Saturday v Fulham

Dos Bueno es muy bueno, senor

Surely we don't want our defenders interchanging. Need a solid base.

Well, we obviously don't want our half backs interchanging with the full backs, or the wing backs interchanging with the centre backs? However, the "inverted full back" would be a distinct possibility in this system.



Sorry, wolfie!!

A fluid system with Sa inter-changing with Fraser should be given some consideration' surely.

Just read that Tommy Doyle's team could be heading for consecutive FA Cup semi-finals. Last season he was prevented from playing for Sheffield Utd against his parent club Man City. The same could conceivably happen this season.

Far too much fluid for my liking

Matheus Cunha has now returned to full training so maybe at least on the bench on Saturday

Fraser
Doherty Gomes Sarabia Doyle
Santi Bueno RAN
Kilman Lemina Semedo
Sa

Pretty sure Cunha will be the emergency plan on Saturday but not the starter.

Works whichever way you look at it.

You'd like to hope so. I wouldn't be too impressed if he was starting, given the risks we seem to have taken with Hwang and Neto.

It's my new Palindrome formation that depends on maximum fluidity. Its innovative and makes Pep look like Neil Warnock.

Weekends original 11 is the best we can put out, albeit perhaps a little more fluid.

Not likely to see the w/e's original starting 11. No Bellegarde or Neto

Might be imbibing some fluid before the w/e though. Sort of wished I hadn't typed that
