For me your fullbacks and up top don't look as convincing. Then again, van Wolfwinky didn't exactly do much, and look how he was rated!

Olsson will be the first choice left back but unlikely to make the first game due to injury. Apart from that I more or less agree with you. Neil has said he wants a couple more players and it is pretty clear he wants a striker as one of those.

Surely you can get a better right back than Whittaker?

Whittaker looked greatly improved in the second half of last season. He's much better at going forward than defending and Neil seems to want his fullbacks to do that. I think Martin is a better right back but we need a centre back to move him across.

I think he might start:

Ruddy
Wisdom Martin Bassong Brady
Mulumbu* Dorrans
Redmond Hoolahan Johnson
Grabban​

*Tettey if the injury he picked up yesterday is serious

Brady to take Johnson's place when Olsson is fit. Howson maybe ahead of Dorrans or Wes.

Ours is now looking likely to be:

Guzan/Steer*
Richards Crespo Clark Amavi
Sanchez
Gueye Veretout
Sincair----------------------Agbonlahor
Ayew/Gestede
*Guzan has only had a week off since the season ended due to Gold Cup commitments, Sherwood himself isn't sure on his fitness.

This is of course pending us raiding Ligue 1 a bit more!!

I think he's going to start Lovren over Sakho and Gomez over Moreno. Also suspect Ings over Benteke. #controversial

I'd prefer Herrera in the centre but I think he'll go with what I've posted.

I've seen a few reports saying Gomez could get the nod over Moreno, I've not seen how he's performed pre-season so I can't say whether it'd be a good idea.

I like Lovren, I don't think he'd a bad defender but it's clearly not working for him. I hope he can sort his form out.

Why not just add him and have a full eleven?

Because I think LVG is enough of a maverick to play that formation.

Or Pereira might play.

I just get the feeling Brendan doesn't rate Sakho. He hasn't played him with Skretl (guaranteed starter) all pre-season.

Benteke isn't fully fit though Stoke is exactly the kind of game you'd want him to play so wouldn't be surprised to see him start.

I'd be suprised not to see Ibe get on. Best player in pre-season apparently (I've seen none of the games).

I hope it's not the case, whilst Sakho looks hilarious on the ball he doesn't lose it that often. If he can stay fit he can be a real machine.

I think we'll see a lot of Ibe this season, he scored a corker pre-season. Markovic hasn't looked too bad pre-season either from what I've seen. I hope he can kick on.
