Ramsdale White Gabriel Saliba Timber Rice Odegard Havertz Saka Nketiah Martinelli

If Zinchenko is fit, he plays for Timber. I think we’ll have a lot of the ball, and thus, can expect Rice to be a stopper. Let Havertz run in the midfield and be the highest player on the field quite often, leaving Eddie available to poach some chances.

Fact is, I could easy switch Partey for Havertz, Trossard for Nketiah.

11-0-0, a very daring formation.

I’m naturally more defensive, so I think I’d go Partey for Havertz, and have Rice move forward more when we have the ball, Xhaka style.

But what I like most is that all these are quality options!

Partey at right back was not even a thought.

Wait what? Partey as rearmost DM/CM. Rice moving forward more and Ode OM.

Had a wedding last night and got 3 hours sleep. It’s going to be a miracle if I make it for KO tomorrow.

Really hoping we can open the season with the win. On paper this should be a pretty easy opener, but I’m worried last seasons success might have the players feeling extra stress.

Plenty of time for sleep! Still got over 12 hours until kick off lad!

This is crazy. A formation/setup completely untried during preseason. What’s Mikel cooking?

Idk, he might be underestimating Forest. I’d prefer either a double 6 with Partey or Trossard for Havertz.

Delay at the turnstiles; game starts half an hour late. Probably cuz of the new system.

Let’s batter them. I would really like some revenge for our away lose.
