    Burnley have taken 2 points from the last 33 points over 11 games. The worst form team in the league.
    We have a depleted team but Mount and Bruno are fit to at least play some minutes either from the bench or the start.. No need to be scared lads.

    They also have around 10 missing owing to international duty and injuries.

    There are wildcard elements like Dubravka and Mejbri (ex United) and Walker (ex City) who might want to stick the boot in and we have obviously angered the footy gods somewhere along the line so I am betting on a Dubravka masterclass.

    Our main cause to worry (playing an overly defensive 3 at the back setup versus a team we can just go for the throat against) is gone, so I doubt anyone is shaking right now.

    We have angered referees, media, var, etc by dominating for 26 SAF years
     
    We're going to see a back 4 tonight.

    My back 3 shall always....oh wait I forgot Amorim isn't here anymore
     
    Feel sorry for Fletch. Big night, lots of pressure, and he has to pick his favourite son for the bench.
     
    Stronger squad now everyone’s coming back. Can’t wait to have Amad and Mbeumo back and maz but hoping he gets to play RB.
     
    Maguire, Mainoo, Bruno and Mount have arrived with the squad and are in contention to start.
    We’ll find out in about 10 mins.
     
    Apparently that’s wrong and he IS in the squad!

    Journos started reporting before the bus was empty!!!
     
    So no Cunha. Oh well. Big Ben really needs to give us a performance tonight.

    Edit. Or not, maybe should just wait for the actual team news
     
    No Cunha... no Mbuemo, no Amad. This attack is proper shite, specially if Mount or Bruno don't start.
     
    Apparently Cunha is fine - just last off the bus!

     
    Bruno back! Looks pretty much what many guessed. 4-2-3-1 with Dorgu right wing.



    Edit: much better bench too.

    Anyone else think we will be playing 3 at the back because that'a all that the squad have trained for in the last year?

    No, the players were training with Amorim in a back 4 before suddenly switching to a back 3 against wolves and Leeds.
