Have to win, will win. May well be tighter than we'd like.

Christ only knows what team we'll be able to put out. I'd guess it'll be something like:

Martinez (if not too jet lagged)

Cash (hopefully fit) Konsa (if fit) Mings (Torres if fit) Digne

Bailey Tielemans (if fit) Barkley (if fit) McGinn

Rogers Watkins

Lots of unknowns in there with injuries, hopefully Konsa and Torres were more precautionary than anything. But basically we've got no fit or in form options on either attacking flank, which is a bit 'sub optimal'.

Maybe put Maatsen in instead of McGinn. Just so he and Digne can get in each other's way a bit.

At this point, getting 11 on the pitch is a pretty good result. Would like Cash and Barkley to be fit so we can at least put something resembling a decent side out. Rickon Watkins will grab a couple, he due to go on one of his runs....

I reckon Tielemans will be fine. So while it's not ideal, a midfield base of him and McGinn was good enough to win at Arsenal last season.

Rogers and two of Philogene, Bailey and Buendia behind Watkins. Back to winning ways.
