  28. Hart-ake

    is that Bilva in a front three?

  29. Dosh
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    The line up and those last 5 pages

  30. Dr. Mantis Toboggan
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    Seems like that could be the away formation, and last week's the home formation (not including top 6 games).

    Would expect rotation across Sterling and the Silvas to let Sane and Mahrez in for some games.
