Interesting snippet from Ralph's pre-match press conference today. Whilst talking about Diallo he said: "I don't have a problem when Oriel comes back now because for such a player you always find a place in the team and when you have such a strong player we have a few similar positions to the 6 so I can imagine him as a 10 or a full back if it's necessary" So, looks like Ralph is contemplating playing JWP, Romeu and Diallo in the same line-up when all 3 are fit.

Pedalo

Regarding KWP in particular or the wider injury list? Cheers

Nope

They are both "no.6" players (in Ralph speak)

How many times hasn't this formation worked?

Yep, this

P.s. what position does he play @Sheaf Saint?

Congrats! Someone should tell let the geezer/lady who updates the Sky Sports app...

Yep, comedy gold 😂

How long is Diallo's contract? Anything less than 4 years and we should be looking to extend it as early as possible!

Ah, fair point Ralph just said: "an opportunity for a few changes on Tuesday"

Same starting 11 for me

New interview...

Great dilemma for Ralph to have. Diallo's pace to break down that Arsenal attack today has got me thinking he could well warrant a starting berth ahead of Romeu. Romeu offers a bit more in the strength department though, and obviously has experience on his side. Too close to call.

Was a toss up between Diallo, JWP, Bednarek and KWP for me, but gonna give it to JWP as it was yet another complete masterclass.

Wem-ber-ley, Wem-ber-ley

Phew. Never any doubt

Good call for the MotM though. Another midfield masterclass from JWP

It's a contact sport (well, it used to be...)
