Looks like James, DCL and Godfrey all back in training

Hate playing against Burnley. More often than not they go out of their way to make the game as awkward as possible for us.

To be fair, they make games awkward for everyone that they play.

It feels a bit like the start of the season. This international break has taken away any momentum and flow.

I don't remember whether Burnley were any good last month but we've got a lot of making up to do at home after last season.

 

[Dario Terracotta]

One game at a time but as usual get ahead of myself lol , really need a minimum of seven points from the next three games to set us up for a decent....ish season.COYB.

 

[Brisan123]

Pickford
Holgate Mina Godfrey Digne
James Allan Doucoure Gray
DCL Richarlison

Begovic, Keane, Delph, Gomes, Gbamin, Davies, Iwobi, Townsend, Rondon​

Keane will start , James won’t
The FSW is pig headedly stubborn if nothing else

…if Coleman is unfit, logic suggests Holgate at RB and Mina brought in to counter Burnley’s aerial threat but this Manager is hard to read at this stage of the season.

it’ll become clearer which players don’t figure in his plans and there might be a surprise or two in that regard. I’ll still be on holiday in Cyprus, looking forward to finding a bar to watch the game, last one I watched from here was the opening day draw at Wolves. Burnley at home is the type of game we need to be winning, I just think/hope we are better than them.

I'd like to think we were better than them...and hope my thinking's correct...it often is.

3-1 to the 'Fantail Breeze'-managed, mighty Blues

Finally looks as though we’re close to a full squad (until Benitez rules out Gbamin Godfrey Mina James and DCL in the presser)

It's funny isn't it, we've hardly seen a massive change since last season but when you put a list of our players down like that, I think that's not actually a bad squad. We've got some big lads in there, a blend of pace and power, no little skill and a definite goal threat.

I know this is a rare and unexpected bit of positivity, but Rafael seems to have started doing something right; long may it continue.

Seamus is the only player out I think?
