I agree , I guess you are right …it will be Hendo and Fab at the back again.
Going by Jurgen’s recent comments about a stable partnership in defence,This game is of massive importance to not chop and change CB’s as far as Jurgen is concerned.
However, Having Fab at 6 position will be massive in such a game in winning the ball and intercepting key City attacks.
It might be best to have Davies with Hendo, but this could go equally south for that boy today with City’s attack and wreck his career before it starts here…and hence he needs protection to grow in this team.On the flip side though, he could play a blinder and win Motm and I will be chuffed to bits.
@Lowton_Red just off to Morrisons, can you ask the warmongering charioteers to keep off the bypass till 10:30 please? I’ll drop some pulled pork off for the hounds later in celebration of a colossal victory.
Hendo has to start in midfield. I just want to see that however it works. I’d be tempted to play Shaq behind Mo and Mane with instructions to our world class wingbacks to bomb on. Bobby has been so off form of late and Shaq’s starting to put a run of half decent games together. Early penalty for us, 3-1 or 2-0 just to keep Pep’s memes going.
