Pivotal we have Matip back next to Fabinho for this, otherwise it pains me to say I can’t see us winning it, we’ve been utter sh*te recently but the MUtants have been buoyant, are in form and have the momentum, so with us under strength defensively at least and to some degree in midfield also, it’s hard to imagine us coming out on top,
If indeed Joel makes it Hendo needs to sit in front protecting, with Thiago and Gini either side, Robbo & Trent stretching the pitch and the usual three amigos up top, without Joel, I think Hendo sits in with Fabinho and we could see Millie come in and play the DM, this is not a game for either Rhys nor Nat, they’d get ripped to F**k by Rashford & co, it’s not a ideal set up but one I think that is strong enough to deal with their counter attack, it does lack creativity but with Thiago it helps massively with his accuracy,
The front three need to be on their game collectively too, they have been way off their best of late and need to re-ignite the fire that should be burning in their guts, we of course all hope that we are past our sticky patch and we get somewhere near our capabilities,,I just want us to play well and not the sh*te we have seen recently, do that we get mullered simple as that, play like we know we can they won’t touch us.
