So... Traore injured and Grealish and Gabby have the bug? Or have I forgotten someone?

Bacuna in midfield. Gil on subs bench. That does nothing for me. Looks like 442 with Bacuna hopefully crossing a lot. No Libor or Ayew (both on bench). Looks like Sinclair has to be our saviour.

My thoughts too. Amazing how not having Traore and Grealish available makes the team look that much weaker. I'm starting to think we're a bit light on wingers/wide players compared to any other role.
