I would imagine we'll see the same team as today except for WH in goal and someone else in for Lokilo; however, I would like to see... Edited by taylors lovechild (06 Aug 2017 8.45am)

Edited by taylors lovechild (06 Aug 2017 8.45am) This should be our lineup but I don't think De Boer will see it. Slightly doutful about things now after I was being positive. Playing Luka at CB and Townsend at RWB for the majority of pre season doesn't bode well.

All the signings are u21 so will not have to be named in the 25 man squad. Riedewald a left side defender Edited by Dan89 (07 Aug 2017 12.16pm)

 Seems most people are leaving out Punch and I would have to agree with that idea...I am not saying Punch is not good enough but I do believe there are better players in the squad simple as that. I just wonder how (when all are fit) we can get Cabaye, Luka and Loftus-Cheek in the same team without playing them out of position??? Let alone Punch!

 Puncheon has to be dropped, so we can play a central midfield pairing of Luka and Loftus-Cheek. 
 Let's keep the ball this season!  |

And also it's possible/probably Luka and Cabaye. Unless we're playing 5 across the middle of the park I do not see an ideal place for Puncheon.
