^This in possession with RAN dropping to LWB and the whole backline shifting to the right out of possession, at a guess. Basically what we did during the successful spell last season.
 
Glad to see Lemina for Doyle but it’s the same bungled structure as last week and complete lack of ambition. No idea what the intent is beyond giving it to Cunha.
 
No Johnstone again is just hillarious. I don’t want to go all conspiracy but it can’t be anything but a contract situation or a “bust up”. It can’t be sporting merit so don’t know what else it is…
 
Updated tweet now from the club and Johnstone IS on the bench
 
Did André get injured or something? Fucking bonkers that he's been dropped when we actually look (relatively) solid with him in the team.
GO has no clue how to use him and probably making a point. He didn't want him and wanted a CB. We gave him a tiny budget for that area and then went off and spent £20m on Andre.

Quite possibly. But, he’s still looked like our best player in that position and gets overlooked. He’s the starter with the other options more suitable for the bench.

It's so frustrating how close I feel like we are to having a very good first XI (depth is a different issue but not one we have the luxury of worrying about just now).


Semedo - Bueno - Dawson - Toti
Lemina - André - Gomes
Aït-Nouri
Cunha - Larsen​

Not that that's a shape that you really ever see, but I can't not look at those names and not think "yeah, there's a very workable Prem side in there".

Edit: Damn RIP to the Rayan in my head I guess. Adjusted.

Simple. Sa is a better keeper.
