We had our strongest XI play this fixture in the PL and it was a painful, uninspiring watch. Sheer delusion or hope is making me think this won’t be as bad attacking wise.
Why would Howe be playing him if he hasn’t fully recovered? He’s come back into a team lacking confidence and has been shite.
I’d like to see Lascelles back in but no way Howe is dropping anyone that already has so much credit in the bank.
Not his fault Tonali is an addict but the obvious glaring issue is our mid, even with everyone fit. Cannot rely solely on Jo for us to not look like feeble, slow weaklings.
Perfect summer transfer window is a necessity to fix this mess.
