How do you turn a parrot into a soul singer? Put it in the microwave until its Bill Withers.

I'd go;

Martinez

Cash, Lindelof, Torres, Maatsen

Bogarde, Onana

McGinn, Elliott, Rogers

Watkins

Id like to think we will be resting Cash or McGinn anyway. Either of those get injured and we are in trouble. Rogers should be given the night off too.

Maybe try Ollie and Malen up front again like v Burnley. Buendia on left and one of Sancho or Elliot on the right. Not sure what we do if/when Cash is out, might be Lindelof there which won't be pretty. Bizot will start too.

Hate these "when do we have we tea?" European kick offs.

We feel more resilient these days which helps when you are away from home in Europe so that give me heart for a positive result. I can see plenty of rotation, some periods of showing said resilience and an eventual victory.

Deventer in Holland.

It's in Overijssel. Which is in the East, rather than Holland which is in the West.

Their record this season in all comps is W3 D4 L5, they did win away to Panathinaikos but lost at home to Steaua.

I call it Holland as they don't like it and i'm petty over football.

Judging by the state of Digne's ankle, Maatsen will be starting. Wouldn't mind seeing Sancho given a start alongside him.

Eagles to have their wings clipped.

We need to watch them like a hawk though.
