chara Report post Posted November 24, 2020 I'm inclined to think Frank will put out a strong side with only maybe Silva rested...good gap until next game....get the job done. Who is "out" ?.....not sure current situation with a few players. And...6 inches of snow so far this am as I write....means no visit to supermkt pre Thanksgiving and no rushing to get back for the match! No..we don't really "do" Thanksgiving but a turkey etc.....Goose for Christmas...fwiw! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Droy was my hero Report post Posted November 24, 2020 I'm not sure we have an XI that wouldn't be seen as strong favourites to win this game. Especially in the absence of home fans. So CHO and Giroud to start. Along with the CB expected to be dropped for Silva at Spurs and the CB4. Azpi as a FB and whoever is preferred out of Alonso/Emerson. Other positions according to whoever is least unfit. Kepa or Caballero should play IMO. Maybe Silva should get 45 mins. I do hope Frank makes it clear who his 2nd choices are in a few positions. Nobody has mentioned Gilmour, though he was playing u21 football a week ago. Nice to see him get a late cameo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
