    Assuming these signings mean we play more like the style of two seasons ago, I think Noble will be far more dynamic and box to box than last year. My prediction is that he will be one of our stand outs this year.

    Ald ;ok - he went from consistently having Sakho, Carroll, Payet, Lanzini, Moses and Antonio ahead of him to Calleri, Fletcher, Zaza, Snodgrass, Feghouli and Ayew, with a bit of Antonio and Carroll thrown in every now and then and Payet only here for 50% of the season.

    Lanzini was the only constant.

    With Antonio, Lanzini, Arnautovic and Hernandez to make runs, I'm sure he'll dictate games more with his passing tempo.

    We should be alright, looks like Jose is worried about us, so expect him to park the bus and go for a 0-0....

    Mourinho: "We need more when they see other teams get players and good players and important players, Man City and Liverpool and West Ham."

    Classic mind games from Jose.

    London News report that Feg is carrying an 'undisclosed' injury, and that AC and Antonio have stayed behind in the UK for further conditioning work.

    So assuming Antonio isn't fit for the start of the season, and Feghouli is sold in the near future, are we looking at Snodders starting on the right against Man U? ;hmm

    Arnie Lanzini Ayew probably.

    Or Ayew or 4-3-2-1 maybe

    This is the problem with signing no other players. It forces us to go with a formation.

    Providing Antonio isn't fit, we'll be forced to play 3-4-2-1. If we stick to 4 at the back, we either have to go Ayew as a winger (too adventure at OT), Snodgrass (not good enough) or we bring in Fernandes (not ready IMO) to play as a three in the middle with Nobes and Obiang, leaving Cullen as our back-up on the bench (assuming Kouyate is out).

    I imagine we'll go 3-4-2-1 with Arnie or Ayew and Lanzini off Chicharito.

    You can't sign an infinite amount of players to cover injuries and then potential injuries after that.

    We can't spend a load of money just because Antonio and Kouyate might miss the first game of the season.

    I think Fernandes did enough towards the end of last season to fill a spot on one of the wings, or CM.

    Especially with Zabaleta supporting him but feel for wing back maybe go with byram if he's available

    Hart
    Zab Reid Ogbonna Cress
    Obiang Noble
    Arnie Lanzini Ayew
    Hernandez
