Cheers for the replies. Good to get some views from people who saw it live.
He had decent passing % stats for Juve, so I'm sure we forgive him some early nerves. Lets be honest, he's not even likely match-fit at the moment.
That's who I think will play.
Bearing in mind that if we're going to attempt to high-press Huddersfield next weekend, I think we'll need to rest a few.
Here we go then. The Giant Banana-skin clash.
They lost today which is their first loss of the season. Will be interesting to see what changes both they (and we make).
Will MP make whole-sale changes? I think he will. There's a fair few players not getting minutes.
A tricky team to predict. I'd expect who doesn't get a game on Wednesday will tell us more about which fringe players might be off.
-------------McCarthy-------------
Pied---Bednarek--Yoshida---McQueen
----------Clasie--Hojbjerg-----------
Long--------JWP---------Boufal
-------------Austin---------------
Could be a tricky 2nd half here.
WHU now have to become the team we struggle against - A side that sit deep & hit on the break / rely on set pieces.
Lets hope their players who returned Cresswell/Antonio start to tire out in the 2nd half.
We've got good options on the bench. Would love to see Austin / Boufal come on & grab a goal.
Just worried about our aerial frailty.
Very happy if Carroll is still out but they still a have goal threat all over.
Our goal scoring for around a year has been woeful at home so is hardly a 1-off.
Strange that we haven't addressed that (yet).
Says me earlier... Then reads Juve bid £70m for Mateo Kovacic....
