It will have been 16 days since we saw what football at the top end of things could look like by Arsenal, who made us look second class citizens in footballing terms.

This game is unusual this season, in so far as the bookies have us down as favourites to win.  Monday nigth, under the lights....but how empty will the bowl be.  With a boycott planned, kids for a quid, general sale tickets up for cheap, and Nuno's first home game, the atmosphere and attendance is anyone's guess.

Injuries wise, our Big Fucking German is big fucking injured again...reducing the options up front to the two Callum's.  Nuno chose to save ~86k in wages last time out, preferring the pace and mobility of Marshall over Wilson, and it will be interesting to see if he does the same thing here, or goes for a 'makeshift' centreforward.  And of course Soucek is back.

Other than that, there are no fresh concerns reported going into the weekend.

Predicted Starting Lineup: Subs: Hermansen, KWP, Igor, Potts, Guilherme, Marshall, Rodriguez, Wilson, Scarles

Predicted Score: 1-0 (Soucek)

And this weeks winner of "guess the team" is .... drumroll
FOMB

Horrendous team selection full of negativity. 
He may fluke a result tonight as he is against an out of his depth manager, but against most other teams this selection would get slaughtered. 

Well I did not expect that line up. I wonder if he has an eye on the fact we also have to play friday, or yes, what he's seen at training and who might be best equipped to play how he wants to.

Nuno just said it's all about options and getting to know the players. I'm sure it's with an eye on friday and who has been playing in the break. Said he's not bothered about the boycott and they just have to focus on playing well.

Maybe those in the 11 impressed in training, maybe it's a kick up the arse for those not starting.  Interesting to say the least.

Am guessing a bit of this is a out the players he's had two weeks on the training ground with, especially back 4, and a bit of it is about having another game on Friday, with AWB and Diouf having been playing in Africa.

Plus Soucek and Irving both big lads and good in the air?!

Absolutely no idea what to make of that team.

Wilson must be really shit in training or just really fragile. What the fuck was the point of signing him?

WTF is that all about. Funny line up to be honest. Can't work that out at all. Magassa, Diouf, AWB on the bench, no fucking striker at home again. Nuno must have found an old Potter teamsheet. I just hope he knows what he is doing. 

That whole defence has been here since the last game so maybe that's why? 

At least that Greek nightmare is subbed

After being massively impressed by his starting line ups he can absolutely fuck off with that line up

What the MERRY FUCK is that team about?

What a load of shit. Fuck off Nuno. 

Bit of a nutty Line-up. Interesting to say the least. 

Really not sure about continuing with no Wilson up top or even Marshall for that matter whilst the caethorse is out foe a while yet. Really would have expected Wilson to start by now.

Come on you fucking Irons!

Certainly wasn't expecting that.

Diouf out

Irving for magassa?

Soucek back in?

What the hell?  

Diouf rested

Fuck me the team tonight is out of left field!

Scarles....check
Soucek....check
Irving....check
KWP....check
Todibo....check

Wow.

Souceks decline both on international and club level says we will keep picking more balls from our own net than anything else. He can't, and won't start.

Because apart from really Bowen we struggle to score and needs must especially when we are down there. So I can see why he could be used as a genuine goal threat alone.

How can anyone suggest Soucek into the lineup? He shouldn't be even close to a starting position, and would also rather see Paqueta on the bench too.
Summerville and Bowen has to play on the wings, and the midfield trio of Fernandes, Magassa and Potts should be enough to both protect our cunts at the back, but also helping our forwards going forward.

As for the striker position, I would go for Marshall. Give him all the time he can get. We will need it in the championship later on...

Fullkrug, Wilson, Soucek, Paqueta won't be here next season anyway, so good riddance to the lot.
