Ok so if we are to believe transfer business is done. what's everyone's starting 11? I'm still struggling to see how everyone fits and where?

Providing everyone's fit I'd play a 4-1-2-1-2 Diamond
Forster
Cedric
VVD (Stephens if he goes)
Hoedt
Bertrand
Romeu
JWP/ Lemina
Davis
Redmond
Gabbiadini
Austin

Subs:
McCarthy
Pied
Yoshida
Lemina/ JWP
Hojbjerg
Tadic/ Boufal
Long

from that there's the option to play 2 DM's if they need to see a game out or bring Tadic/ Boufal on for Gabbiadini/ Austin and stick them and Redmond on the wings.

You can play any combination of attack, but until Redmond and Tadic actually start passing/ crossing to Gabbi/ Austin/ Long, we won't score goals. Redmond is of the firm belief he is some super star who can score from anywhere and Tadic pretty much the same. Gabbi took up so many awesome positions yesterday but never got the ball, each time Redmond chose to shoot!

In fact I would have Austin and Gabbi up front, with Long playing wide. He can pass, cross, score and is never greedy .
Lemina settling in nicely . Romeo and Lemina great together .
Goalkeeper . my 89 year old grandad . moves quicker than jolly green giant .

Saint Dan that's pretty much exactly what I had in mind! Think Boufal will only come good with a run of games and would love to see him and Redmond on either flank.

Cedric, Bertrand Hoedt and new cb,
Romeu, Davis and Ward-Prowse,

Cheers sainty. He needs to kick on this season. Looked promis8ng when he first joined. then looked as though he'd lost confidence and was lacking later in the season. Looked sharp on the pre-season training vids.
