    One of the benefits of winning the group is we cannot be drawn against any of the Champions league teams in the next round so no we can't.

    Would imagine that neither he nor Ajer will play on Thursday. Biton I would imagine will fill one of those spots. The other I don't know. Is Simunovic back?

    The four best placed champions league drop outs are seeded and the other four are unseeded, so we can draw the four third places teams with the fewest points

    Gordon

    Bauer Bitton Ajer Boli

    Ntcham Christie

    Johnston Rogic Elyounoussi

    Griffiths


    Edouard, Shved and Taylor off the bench.

    What a bonus this is going into the game having already guaranteed first place and having the luxury of giving some much needed competitive minutes to players that are needing game time. :50:

    Not 1 first teamer who has played constantly since July should be involved let alone travel.

    forster, jullien, Ajer, brown, mcgregor, Forrest, Christie, Elyounoussi and Edouard should be left at home!

    Gordon

    Bauer (anyone on b list) Bitton Taylor

    Ntcham (anyone on b list)

    Sinclair Rogic Johnston

    Perfect so. Biton needs and deserves to play while this game like with Griffiths is a perfect way of helping get El Hemed back up to speed match sharpness and fitness wise.

    ahh I did not realize that. But if it is at least the bottom 4 Champions league teams then not so bad as you would think those would be beatable teams who came from a group dominated by the 2 qualifiers.

    May be worth giving Ely a run for 25 min, just to bring on his match fitness.

    Can see it being a 0-0 , I'm on the unders , neither side needs to do anything so I'd through out the fringe.

    A draw and Lazio are out

    Anybody realistically think Demebele will see any minutes tomorrow night? I'd be surprised myself.
