At this point, we'll only be missing 1 starter for AFCON

Agreed. Do we really care if we win this or not?

I think it would be good for the club to win a trophy, and would presumably mean some of the guys got some more good competitive experience.

If the winner still got a Europa League berth, that's obviously be important to lock up. Now winner gets conference league which I guess would still mean more money and more experience for guys than no European tournament at all. Hopefully we're on our way to bigger things and none of this matters

Ive seen rumors of interest from both Barca & Juventus. The Juventus links suggested a PEA for Arthur swap.

I don't know that it would be a straight swap, but I would be curious to see an Auba for Dest swap with Barcelona. There seems to be a bit of smoke around something like that happening, albeit unrelated stories and context clues.

Where would Dest fit?

Think the Dest links are based on interest expressed in the summer. Now that we have Tomi he doesnt make sense. He would expect to start wherever he goes. You wanna bench Tomi?

If a swap deal needs to happen with Barca we need to do whatever we can to convince de Jong to come fix our MF.

Also, i highly doubt we address backup RB until we can get rid of Cedric and at that point I am hoping that we go with someone young (under 20) and/or multi positional (maybe a DM/RB like Tyler Adams).
Ghost of Andrew Eaton
How long do you want to ignore this user?
All of that aligns with what I thought. Plus, I don't see Barca taking on an aging, expensive player like Auba who isn't scoring much.

Tomiyasu has been great, do we really need to address RB outside of a young backup?

Yeah I'll take Tomi over Dest. He's miles better defensively. Dest is much more like Tierney/Tavares in that attacking back and I'm not entirely sure we want that on both sides.

What are the odds that we are the only team that has to play all of our games in the festive period.
TXAggie2011

Norwich is terrible. When is the last time they scored?

Hopefully we can take care of that with minimal stress and go into Wolves feeling alright.

In a way, I would like to see Arsenal get out ahead points wise and put the pressure on other clubs to play chase.

Besides, they'll have to get those other games in some pointthose teams are going to be busy later in the season.
Ghost of Andrew Eaton
How long do you want to ignore this user?
Agreed. We should want to play and to take the points. Let those other teams get more congested fixture lists later on in the season.

If we think that the Wolves game doesn't get cancelled, I would probably start a similar team to the team that played vs Sunderland. Nketiah, Pepe, Smith Rowe, Nuno, Cedric, etc. Save Skaka, Laca, Martinelli, Tomiyasu, Tierney for Wolves.

Looks like the same lineup as we've played in the recent Premier League games except for Ben White at RB in place of Tomiyasu and Holding in White's usual spot.

Wangus... Should your same stream link work? If not can you post a new one?

Random question... anyone know what is up with players having holes in their socks on their calf? Noticed that Martinelli has them today. When we played Southampton I noticed 3-4 Saints that had 1-3 holes on the back of their socks.

Nice goal for Tierney. Odegaard did well to send him thru to the box.

Odegaard is so class. Glad we got that extra goal, we definitely deserve to be up 2-0

Apparently it's to relieve tension in the calves and/or Achilles. It seems weird to me that premier league players have to do that. I haven't noticed in a while, but Kyle Walker used to have five or six holes on the back of his socks.

looks like ass. maybe the uniform companies should make a sock option that is a little bigger around at the calf.
