Very important we win this with Arsenal likely to drop points against City.

I'd even consider doing something a bit weird in midfield to give Barry a rest. Can Alcaraz play there? He seems like the type.
 
Hasnt he got like about 20 assists this season?

Its not always about the 70 yard volleys into the top bin.

I dont think I would be happy with 10m, I would probably want a little more, provided we had a replacement lined up.

I like the lid, but sadly he doesnt always show up.

I'd only accept him going if we upgraded the same position otherwise its pointless as he adds a hell of a lot (say tadic for him as example then yeah), OR if it was the difference in getting in Lukaku or not for example.

Otherwise he's one of the better players we have, and direct which is something osman and peinarr dont have about them

and fair play to bobby, directness is something with dele and mcgeady hes been trying to add so see it unlikely he'd wish to let kev go tbh unless it was to further his aim to improve the team

Apparently this was suggested to Alcaraz and thinking about playing their fatigued him so much that he's out till next summer now mate
 
Probably already covered here but what's the story with Barrys card count and when is the amnesty? If there's any chance he could be suspended for the Arsenal game, he should be rested and Osman pushed back. The only way I'd be comfortable with this is if Jags was back at CB. Don't get me wrong, Stones has been great but there's a chance he could be badly exposed with someone like Barkley infront of him, would do his confidence no good.

See the point your trying to make mate, the thing i differ on is that i think Stones is ready now and the confidence is growing and growing, don't think anything can knock the lads belief actually, a bad derby etc and he's come back stronger, the sign of pure quality
 

Barkley in for Barry

Front 4 of Naismith, Mirallas, McGeady and Lukaku with Naismith/Mirallas switching playing the number 10 role.

Naismith & Mcgeady sub for Osman and Deulofeu around 70 mins

However its lovely this season having some depth and a manager that not only has a tactical plan but can realise when/where its not working and will try to fix it.
 
Gotta be ruthless against Fulham.

If Deulofeu plays anything like he did yesterday he'd rip apart Fulham's back 4 with ease.
 

The cut off for 10 yellow cards is 13th on April.

I'd defo sit Barry out for this one, much better that we miss him for Fulham than Arsenal. Could take the risk and tell him not to do anything stupid but he could pick one up for a perfectly ok challenge so we should be ok playing Barkley or Osman there.

Mind you, Flamini is also 1 booking away from a 2 game ban so he'd be a miss for them.
 
I would bring in Mirallas for Osman, yes LEON OSMAN...NEA

Keep Jags fresh for the Arsenal game, rest distin and put in Alcaraz. Rest Barry and deulofeu. Drop Osman deep, Mirallas out right, Mcgeady out left.
 
8 games to go and outside shot at 4th. Keep team as strong as possible until it's off. We win and arrse lose to City this weekend we can go above them with a win against them. Don't mess with that.
