I’m not sure how it’s unfair. People who go every week get ticket priority. Surely that’s how it should be.

It makes it difficult for anybody to get any sort of booking history on away games but thats the problem with a high demand for away tickets.

I say this as someone who used to go to every away game a few years back and now wouldn’t be able to get an away ticket.

I’m sure but love to go and watch us away at some stage.

Seems to me like, whether we wanted to or not, we sold our best player in order to build a squad that would help us to not fall apart when one or two key players are injured, but also to allow us to use different systems depending on the opposition.

This is one of the games where we should consider playing 3 centre backs, in fact if we don’t do it today, I can’t imagine many other opposition teams we would use it against.

We also finally have 2 proper strikers so if we do use a 3-5-2 / 5-3-2 we know we will probably still have a threat at the other end.

I would be playing the following -

Steer

Cash / Tuanzebe / Konsa / Mings / Young

Luiz / McGinn / Ramsey

Watkins / Ings

You could easily have Targett in for Young, but he’s a specialist wing back and I think we should start him for his experience. This gives us the 3 in midfield with plenty of energy, width from the wing backs and 2 genuine goal scorers up front.

We then have options from the bench in wide areas if we need to open the game up and chase something later on.

That’s what I would do, but I suspect we will see some sort of 4-3-3 as usual, and we will try shoehorn Watkins and Ings into it somehow, and it won’t quite work.

I think we're gonna get battered tbh 

Yeah. My only hope is that motd will be jizzing over Ronaldo’s hat-trick against Newcastle which will distract a bit.
