@Niall could you please add Jack Moorhouse (MID) and Chido Obi (FOR) into the lineup selection, just in case. Thank you.

 

[Oldyella]

Weirdly looking a bit more forward to this now.

Same in a bizarre way. Who the F knows how we will line up.

 

[Sancho99]

It's a real conundrum. I think Amorim will want balance and that's where the appeal of Moorhouse comes into it. He's a player with a real engine that can track back and win the ball back where necessary as well as being a proper ball carrier.

I can see Bruno starting in midfield perhaps with Casemiro, but i do worry about our mobility though if that is the case.

Against Spurs that midfield is suicide but we don't have any options.

 

[red_de_pologne]

That was odd.. I'm sensing a key player like Amad or Ugarte is out for a while

Fecking knew it

 

[bosnian_red]

So with those injuries... Probably this? Hopefully Casemiro can pull a performance out.

Onana
Yoro De Ligt Mazraoui
Dalot Bruno Casemiro Dorgu
Amad Garnacho
Zirkzee
​

So adjusting this with Amad out now, probably Eriksen in for him, and now maybe Hojlund in for Zirkzee so we have 2 options for running in behind now that we're replacing Amad with Eriksen.

 

[Overhaul FC]

There's no doubt about Amad being a big loss for the rest of the season.

One of the only match winners in the squad.

Dorgu comes in but Amad goes out of the starting lineup. We either need the underperforming players like Hojlund, Mainoo and Dalot to step up and product better quality themselves, or the coaching staff have to drag it out of them for us to even win an FA cup or Europa League. Would hate the season to be a total waste of time.

 

[always_hoping]

You still know whose injuries will be the story in the media if we get any kind of result

I do indeed with one manager a big mate with the media.

 

[Bertie Wooster]

Onana
De ligt Maguire Mazraoui
Dalot Ugarte Bruno Dorgu
Amad Garnacho
Zirkzee​

Left back at left back and right back at right back please. Zirkzee up top too.

So with those injuries... Probably this? Hopefully Casemiro can pull a performance out.

Onana
Yoro De Ligt Mazraoui
Dalot Bruno Casemiro Dorgu
Amad Garnacho
Zirkzee

What is 'rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic'?

 

[dave1956]

need a win badly, I cannot remember a time when we were below Everton in the Premier League.

 

[Walters_19_MuFc]

Assuming the rumour about Amad is true:

Onana
Mazraoui Maguire Yoro
Dorgu Ugarte Bruno Dalot
Mainoo Garnacho
Zirkzee

 

[soapythecat]

We drop to 15th after this game tomorrow. Making Spurs look like Barcelona again is going to be fun.
Change the system Ruben, if only to avoid relegation.

 

[Andy_Cole]

Assuming the rumour about Amad is true:

Onana
Mazraoui Maguire Yoro
Dorgu Ugarte Bruno Dalot
Mainoo Garnacho
Zirkzee

Not a rumour! He’s confirmed it himself. Ugarte and Mainoo also injured. As with Collyer.

Onana
Mazraoui Maguire Yoro
Dorgu Erikson Casemiro Dalot
Bruno Garnacho
Hoijlund

 

[Red00012]

Assuming the rumour about Amad is true:

Onana
Mazraoui Maguire Yoro
Dorgu Ugarte Bruno Dalot
Mainoo Garnacho
Zirkzee

It’s not a rumour unfortunately

 

[Orange Tree]

No midfield and no attack. We'll win this 1-0.

 

[crackers0seven]

Assuming the rumour about Amad is true:

Onana
Mazraoui Maguire Yoro
Dorgu Ugarte Bruno Dalot
Mainoo Garnacho
Zirkzee

Aren't ugarte and mainoo out too?

 

[BuzzKillington]

15th won’t be so bad will it? At least we’re not unlucky 13 anymore lads.

 

[hellhunter]

Not a rumour! He’s confirmed it himself. Ugarte and Mainoo also injured. As with Collyer.

Onana
Mazraoui Maguire Yoro
Dorgu Erikson Casemiro Dalot
Bruno Garnacho
Hoijlund

Ugarte is doubtful I think, not confirmed to be out

 

[Fingeredmouse]

Assuming the rumour about Amad is true:

Onana
Mazraoui Maguire Yoro
Dorgu Ugarte Bruno Dalot
Mainoo Garnacho
Zirkzee

Mainoo and Ugarte are seemingly out too, the former for a few games.

 

[Infra-red]

Starting to think we might not win the Champions League this season, lads.

 

[Walters_19_MuFc]

Midfield of three? I only see two and a half there since Casemiro is about half the player he needs to be. And about a quarter of the player he used to be

Not a rumour! He’s confirmed it himself. Ugarte and Mainoo also injured. As with Collyer.

Onana
Mazraoui Maguire Yoro
Dorgu Erikson Casemiro Dalot
Bruno Garnacho
Hoijlund

It’s not a rumour unfortunately

Aren't ugarte and mainoo out too?

Ugarte is doubtful I think, not confirmed to be out

Mainoo and Ugarte are seemingly out too, the former for a few games.

Yeah, we're screwed then.

 

[leeroyTX]

Starting to think we might not win the Champions League this season, lads.

Damnit.

 

[Wrecking ralf]

Just gonna put this out there. Don't be surprised when our wing backs are Dalot and Maz and Dorgu starts in Amads position

 

[Ali Dia]

A draw would be a decent result now at this stage

 

[bosnian_red]

What is 'rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic'?

3 different lineup predictions in a week based on updates, yikes. Not looking forward to this

 

[Carl]

Just gonna put this out there. Don't be surprised when our wing backs are Dalot and Maz and Dorgu starts in Amads position

Given that's where he's played all season i don't think it would be surprising. I can't imagine it would go well though.

 

[tomaldinho1]

Starting to think we might not win the Champions League this season, lads.

Europa and relegation.

 

[48 hours]

Sir Jim getting a free trampoline for training coming back to haunt us

 

[jderbyshire]

Yeah that's a possibility actually.

 

[Offside]

need a win badly, I cannot remember a time when we were below Everton in the Premier League.

Finished below them in 2014. Was made a big deal as Moyes left them. Plenty of caf members suggesting we should’ve got Roberto Martinez in.

 

[Hester_manc]

So the line-up will change to:

....................Onana...........

.........De Ligt.Maguire.Yoro

Dalot..................................Dorgu
.............Casemiro.Bruno...............
.........Garnacho........Eriksen.......
......................Højlund..................

Subs: Mazraoui, Højlund, Gore.

 

[Bwuk]

Maz in CM. We can’t play Casemiro there next Bruno, he’s too immobile. Unless we switched to an 3 man midfield which we won’t.

Onana
De Ligt - Maguire - Yoro
Dalot - Mazraoui - Bruno - Dorgu
Eriksen - Zirkzee - Garnacho​

 

[Andersons Dietician]

Onana
DeLigt-Maguire-Yoro
Dalot—-Erik—-Casemiro—-Dorgu
Garnacho———-Bruno
Rasmus​

 

[V.O.]

It really is tough to choose a least shit option for that midfield.

We'll probably end up playing Cas and throwing on some child or other at half time in his place to try and save us.

 

[userman]

Onana
De Ligt - Maguire - Yoro
Mazraoui - Dalot - Bruno - Dorgu
Zirkzee - Garnacho
Hojlund

 

[soapythecat]

Onana
Dalot - Maguire - MdL - Maz
Casemiro - Bruno
Garnacho - Erickson - Dorgu
Zirkzee

Sorry, but switching to a back 4 and playing on the counter is the only way we can play with these injuries. Zero pace in CM or CB positions make the 343 dream impossible. If we start his 343 again tomorrow then we get beat, we don’t lay a glove on a weak Spurs team, and we step closer to relegation.

Ipswich will catch us if we don’t start scoring goals. We have to change the plan.

 

[Squeaky_Bum_Time]

Onana
Mazraoui - Maguire - De Ligt
Dalot - Bruno - Casemiro - Dorgu
Zirkzee - Garnacho
Hojlund
​

Second half, bring in Kone for Casemiro, Moorhouse and Chido for 2 out of the front 3. Bruno needs to play at the level he showed vs Liverpool if we are to have any hope of a result here.

 

[groovyalbert]

It’s more of an indictment of the players and our sport science/physio team.

ALL our main CMs though?

 

[Paul778]

Onana
Mazraoui - Maguire - De Ligt
Dalot - Bruno - Casemiro - Dorgu
Zirkzee - Garnacho

[Oscar Bonavena]

What an absolute shitshow. Where did all these injuries come from?! As if things weren't bad enough. F**king hell!
