RG61 what would you start with? Assuming silva will play as Spain exited early but not the rest?

Hi MM - My starting line up would be:

Cech - Only just due to his experience in the first match of the season

Bellerin (pace against City) - Mustafi - Sokratis - Maitland Niles

Ramsey (if fit) - Torreira (if match fit) if either are not fit then Xhaka, then Elneny

Mkhitaryan - Ozil - Aubameyang

Lacazette

Your choice?

If you paid over a grand for a season ticket and didn't bother turning up in 'protest' you're a mug. And regardless of how much you hate the manager, that's pretty poor support for the team: supporters support the team whether things aren't going well or not.

Also, the big games were full last season. the supporter apathy might go away for a bit because of the perceived 'fresh start', or if we build up more points more quickly (but let's bear in mind our home form last season was phenomenal, so the idea that people weren't being entertained is nonsense - we were poor away from home) .

TBH I think our fans expect too much from us too quickly, and one rough patch over the next few months and then it'll be Gazidis, or Kroenke, or the board, or whoever else is responsible for the fact we're not the best team in the country. And I think if anyone ends up protesting the board by giving them money for an empty seat that's even stupider than not turning up to protest the manager.
