McGinn should not be starting. 
Bailey should be starting.
Football is a simple game.

Why do they have to play fucking freed from desire at every bastard football ground?

Thankfully Martinez starts, hopefully Cam gets some game time.

If it is true that Bailey has been ill then he may have been deemed unfit to start the game.

I was out with a Spanish friend last night who comes from San Sesbastion. 
He said Unai was very much marmite in Spain. 
Always tinkering and rarely started the same team even if it won.

Probably would have been pretty much the same team as last Sunday if there hadn't been illness, with just Digne coming back in. 

Be interesting to see how we line up though and whether it will be the 4-4-2 on Wednesday with one of Buendia, Ramsey or McGinn in behind Ings or a variation of 4-3-3 with McGinn and Buendia in wideish areas.

Bailey is ill, apparently.

Crap, narrow line-up. We need to sign at least a dozen maverick wingers in the next window.

McGinn? FFS, how many times does he need to see somebody play badly?

Or we could bring one back from his loan in Turkey
