I miss Ramsdale :(
I like how Tomiyasu did a lot of pregame press
Such a shame we’re missing Jesus for this one, he’s been absolutely shredding CL and you can’t help but feel he would have been all over this one at home.
This is pretty do-or-die for Sevilla. Gotta play smart and although I’d love a win, even a draw should be enough to put us comfortable and in good prospects for 1st given our Lens game is at home too
Cant imagine we dont line up rice jorgi havertz for this.
But if arteta moves havertz up then vieira comes in, otherwise trossard at the 9.
personally i dont rate vieira at the moment. I’d prefer we come out to control the match and having trossard and havertz on the field does that better imo.
Raya
Zinchenko - gabbi - Saliba - Tomiyasu
Viera - rice - Harvetz
Martinelli - Trossard - Saka
White is showing signs of burnout. Let him rest and avoid injuries as well
We’re sacrificing too much in attack with the Jorginho and Rice pairing. We need to create more chances. We’re at home after all
Why are the club being so quiet about Odegaard? Embarrassed they brought him on at 0-3 down last week? I hope his absence isn’t due to that
6-0 again please.
Just win
Were gonna smash em. The home crowd will be crazy today, show your joy of being back in the CL folks!
A win would be good
Anything can happen in the Champion’s League but Sevilla are quite shit so far this season. We’re missing too many players, but a solid result here would be the perfect start to the next run of games that are ideal for us getting back on track.
Also, you can listen to a preview of the match by Jonathon Rogers which I read for those who want to quickly catch up on background, tactics, etc
Will be interesting to see how Sevilla approaches this. Not sure a point is enough for them especially considering PSV is playing Lens at home
So many injuries, both minor and major, not just in our team but in most of the teams playing in Europe.
Trossard is a great dribbler, would he work in odegaards position? Ball carrying and such? Then we can put havertz up top?
Nketiah Saka Martinelli up front?
