    Ramsdale White Gabriel Saliba Timber Rice Odegard Havertz Saka Nketiah Martinelli

    If Zinchenko is fit, he plays for Timber. I think we’ll have a lot of the ball, and thus, can expect Rice to be a stopper. Let Havertz run in the midfield and be the highest player on the field quite often, leaving Eddie available to poach some chances.

    Fact is, I could easy switch Partey for Havertz, Trossard for Nketiah.

      11-0-0, a very daring formation.

      I’m naturally more defensive, so I think I’d go Partey for Havertz, and have Rice move forward more when we have the ball, Xhaka style.

      But what I like most is that all these are quality options!

    Had a wedding last night and got 3 hours sleep. It’s going to be a miracle if I make it for KO tomorrow.

    Really hoping we can open the season with the win. On paper this should be a pretty easy opener, but I’m worried last seasons success might have the players feeling extra stress.

      Idk, he might be underestimating Forest. I’d prefer either a double 6 with Partey or Trossard for Havertz.

    Do you guys think we’ll see a different starting 11 from the Community Shield match?

      Definitely different. We don’t need the defensive stability of Rice Partey, so Havertz at left 8 for me and Nketiah at striker. Rumour is that Rice isn’t fully fit so we should let Partey be the 6 for the game as well.

    Word is, we didn’t get the paperwork done in time for Raya. Wonder if we’ll see Hein or Okonkwo — and which one — on the bench then. (or possibly even Hillson)

      Agreed. I think he will start Trossard and Havertz. Maybe Rice on the bench and load the attack for the first half. Need to come out of the blocks fast tomorrow.
