Good team - exactly the team I predicted with the exception of Arnoutovic for Shaqiri

Dier and Mason in midfield for them. Looks a bit limited

Far far too weak a central midfield physically away forom home we will regret leaving Adam out they have better footballers and as much strength fear the worst here but fingers crossed it's not the case

This is the best possible team for today.

Charlie was shocking last week so he can't have any complaints.

As someone's just said, this starting XI still has Bojan and Shaqiri to add to it yet. And Shawcross.

Looking forward to seeing Affelay in a central role.

I'm assuming affelay will be in the centre, but it could easily switch to more of a 442 with Walters and diouf up top if needed

why drop adam and not van ginkel

why drop adam and not van ginkel hughes doesn't like Charlie does he Because Adam was awful against Liverpool? Because he always looks like getting sent off when he plays Spurs? Because van ginkel will in all likelihood be a better player in that role once he's settled? Take your pick really.

I like the look of that side. Hopefully it'll be 4-2-3-1 with Afellay playing in the middle of the 3. Need something from this. Id be happy with a point just to get us off the mark. With Shaqiri Id really have fancied us. Shutting Kane out is very important.

Doesn't work with counter attacking play.
