Wonder why Ollie isn't even on the bench?

may have a bug

Emi can’t play every game, so Olsen needs a start every now and then in case the unthinkable happens and Emi gets crocked.

With this selection, Emery is taking an unnecessary risk. We don’t want those extra games in February. If Martinez is fit enough for the bench, he’s fit enough to play. If you want to rest him, leave him out of the squad.

If we fuck this up it's on that poor team selection

[PeterWithesShin]

Players may have knocks we don't know about. But if they don't it seems a bit of a risk putting that side out tonight rather than going all out for the group win at home and then being able to field a weaker side in Bosnia.

Solid team. Olsen will be fine. Very happy with that. Welcome back Alex Moreno. And hoping to see Jhonny D put in a great display.

This post has got the potential to age very badly.

Might have picked up the cold that's going around from the WWWM crew, or Unai wants to give him a proper night off with 3 important games coming up. Hopefully, we'll find out after the game.

Pet Shop Boys fans too by the sound of them, the barsterds! Now I have Go West earworm.

That’s a stronger team than I expected. Good to see Moreno back.

Can't quite make out what they're singing, "Call that a Christmas festival"?

Don’t like the look of that team at all.

This is a strong line up. I was expect McGinn to be rested. Big chance for Jhon.
