    Viborg team news. 2 players won't travel because they can't get visas.

    Is that another "Brexit Bonus" as they have both scored in the tournament so far.

    That's a shame. Not being able to have players due to suspension or injury is one thing but something totally non-sporting like this feels like it ruins the experience for them a bit.

    Very sorry to report this morning but the game tonight will end in defeat.
    As some of you may know I have a West Ham “match day “ mug, which has traditionally been used for years. This morning however the divine Mrs S made my early morning cuppa in an ordinary mug so therefore the match tonight is ruined.
    When I asked her why she’d made such a fundamental error she came back with: “ How was I to know that the useless lot are playing in some ( expletive deleted) competition that no ( again expletive) has ever heard of?!”
    Obviously it’s a yellow card but she just shrugged her shoulders and walked off muttering “ Bloomin' football, bloomin' West 'am”.

    I’d like to see:

    Areola
    Ashby Johnson Kehrer Cornet
    Lanzini Downes Coventry Fornals
    Bowen Okoflex

    With Cornet and Fornals alternating positions and covering for each other when the other one attacks.
  • LukerzLukerz
    I don’t think this is a game for wholesale changes. For me, it’s best 11 with maybe Scamacca or Cornet getting a start. We need to respect them. Last thing we need is a shock exit & no European football.
  • OutcastLondonerOutcastLondoner
    For me, it's something like this. We show them respect but a few changes to show players like Coufal, Bowen and Antonio that they have competition.

    Areola
    Johnson Kehrer Zouma Cresswell
    Soucek Downes
    Cornet Fornals Benrahma
    Scamacca
  • OldCastleSwiftOldCastleSwift
    Cresswell suspended, Outcast, so I would say Johnson LB and Ashby RB.
  • buffybegoodbuffybegood
    Areola
    Coufal Zouma Kehrer Johnson
    Rice Downes
    Bowen Lanzini Cornet
    Scamacca

    Hopefully Kehrer is deemed OK to start, the other 3 at the back will have played a fair bit together last season and I guess Kehrer may have played in front of Areola on occasion (or certainly in training) at PSG.

    Downes plays to give Rice a chance to get forward (although I do wonder if Moyes is beginning to see the end of that particular experiment in bigger games). Bowen starts for me as he doesn't seem up to speed yet this season, and I think Cornet gets a start here. I suspect Moyes sees Lanzini as a versatile, trusted member of the squad so I can see him being used in games like this.

    Rice suspended, buffy.

    Oh, of course. Then Ashby maybe? I want to see Johnson at RB if possible. Coufal's attacking has been no better than his so want to see him get minutes there.
  • yoyoyoyo
    I'm looking forward to this game
  • alderzalderz
    With the suspensions, I would want to see:

    Areola; Johnson Zouma Kehrer Cornet; Soucek Downes; Bowen Lanzini Benrahma; Scamacca

    I think that the last train leaves at about half six this evening. Certainly the case on SWR.
  • LukerzLukerz
    Ex seems to suggest Oggy may be in squad today

    Ex suggested team

    Areola
    Ashby Coufal Ogbonna Johnson
    Coventry Soucek
    Bowen Lanzini Cornet
    Scamacca

    Coufal at CB could be interesting

    Hoping Ogbonna looks something like his old self
  • LukerzLukerz
    It’s a back 3 then; Coufal - Ogbonna - Johnson

    Ashby & Cornet as wing backs

    As Ex predicted

    Oggy captain, Kehrer on the bench
  • buffybegoodbuffybegood
    I suspect it'll be Johnson and Ogbonna as CBs, and Coufal and Ashby as the FBs. With how the team is listed on the OS, I wonder if Ashby is gonna be LB.

    Coventry's last chance to stake a claim to stay for the rest of the season?
