Still no Pau? Thought he would've been available for this one.

That line up looks quality, especially across the middle.
We are due a top draw performance.

Good to see Kellyman is back, although given our luck he's probably better not getting on.

Wright and Munroe? Any one shed some light on these two?

Was fairly big news today that he's injured again.

Good line up for what we have available, Much prefer to have Konsa back in the centre of defence.

Probably would have gone with Bailey over Diaby but I guess with Tuesday in mind we can sub Bailey on later in the game.

Strong lineup, big show of faith in Diaby. Needs to deliver tonight and likely to be a lot more space than v Everton for him to exploit. Looks like McGinn back in his best position on right, Tielemans left. Bailey is a good sub to be able to bring in. Delighted   Konsa not at RB! Midfield area looks like it will be very congested with both sides playing narrow in midfield. Think we will do it.

Finley Munroe was signed from Chelsea a couple of years ago. He's 19 soon.

Bugger, missed that. Could only happen to us couldn't it?

Exactly the line up I went for except Diaby is in instead of Bailey. The midfield battle will be crucial but still think we will win.

Presumably Monroe is Declan Rice's cousin. A defender, born in 2005 so is only around 5.
