Start Maatsen in this one, watched them against Man City at the weekend and their right back is a fucking donkey. They do seem to have  quite a few decent players though, overall, and I think they're in something of a false position. This will be tough, IMO.

An important game, we need to get back on track ahead of Palace. Could be tougher than we think, 2-2.

This is a must win. Victory against these and the Arsenal game will be a mere blip on an otherwise upwards trajectory. The more clear space we have ahead of the chasing pack, the better.

They just lost at home to Everton who had about 12 fit players and had to bring on a sick Grealish last night to finish the game. Bit unfortunate v Man City but they have been a mess since Nuno fell out with them. Ideal home game for us after last night. They have plenty of good players, mind. Any word on how far off Torres or Mings are? Tielemans has had two appalling games in a row in midfield so should be sitting out this one. Not sure what's going on with the Buendia/Rogers selections in the last few games.

Martinez, Cash, Konsa, TBC, Maatsen, Kamara, Bogarde, McGinn, Rogers, Buendia, Watkins.

In spite of their position this won’t be easy. They’ve got a number of really good players. Hopefully we’ll respond positively to last night’s defeat.

They will give us a game, but we are better than them with a manager far more tactically astute.

3-0 (Watkins 2, Rogers).

It'll be a tough one but I think we'll have too much for them. Any news on whether Onana will be available?

With Watkins back in the goals this is a chance to hammer someone.

Feel sorry for forest.
Backlash incoming.

5-0 Villa.
