In case any of you do fantasy football or the lottery, the winning numbers tomorrow are:
Chambers - Luiz - Sokratis
AMN - Torreira - Xhaka - Kolasinac
Pepe - Ozil - Auba
Lacazette
Nelson and Ceb off the bench but Laca already with the winner from ozils first of many assists of the season.
Hope that helps.
{Ed047's Note - thanks Jim, I’m on it.

Just don't be disappointed if we're only allowed to play 11 of the 12 players you lined up with!

Would love us to play with some width, which we don't get with hk when he plays on the right.
Hope your right and pepe starts.

Hahahaha Ned. At least you're talking sense mate :)
16 Aug 2019 21:54:33
Yeah Jim not like some others mate:-)

Just for the record I'm a huge Mesut fan but Emery isn't so can't see Mesut getting selected much at all, on the other hand Emery clearly rates Xhaka very highly so he will most likely be a pretty permanent fixture again this season.
It's probably best me and Emery don't meet up for a bite to eat as we'd never agree where to go:-)

10 outfield players would be preferential!
In view of the physicality of Burnley:
Leno
Maitland-Niles Luiz Sokratis Monreal
Torreira Xhaka (if fit)
Guendouzi Ceballos Kolasinac
Aubameyang.

911, as AMN is best going forward and not defending, and Monreal just okay, and our centrebacks not yet settled, that's why I think wingbacks would be safest. I love your wildman approach putting koladon up on the left though? You need Ozil inside for him to protect though ;)
Gunner, before the carjack stuff Emery looked to have more trust in Ozil, and I'd imagine the club know it'd be toxic for him to stay on the bench - especially with the players liking him and the potential with the new signings so I really think he'll get decent game time until Jan at least. Maybe not today if Emery doesn't think he's settled.

I hope your right Jim but just don't see it myself mate, a appreciated loved Mesut Ozil is a fine thing to have in any team but I don't think that's how Emery sees him judging by last season.
