As if Jones was any better and he was poor against City too
Curtis was not happy on the right but much better in the last 10 mins on the left.
Gravenberch was off it tonight it’s true
Our away form is pretty shit for a team that wants to challenge for a title. So its not that simple.
I know, but all of our upcoming games before New Year's are winnable

Think you might be in a minority in thinking Gravenberch played well.
He was in the right positions. But so much of what he tried just didn't work.
I have to respectfully disagree. Best midfielder by far all night was Endo
Ha I let you take the reins back after I successfully navigated our toughest away game avoiding defeat.
My work is done for a while.
Yep. This team.
I’d say Gakpo must be close to starting, but probs not after playing the full 90.
Nunez needs a goal, he’s starting to revert to being a bit average again - hopefully he’ll start smashing them in again, but it’s looking like his confidence is draining again, just at the time Gakpo’s is rising.

yeah - I’d say so - but not with a double pivot - Gravy needs to be further forward and Slobbers needs to be providing a bit of width on the right.
I would start Jones and not because I desperately want to earn @moron ’s “Like” (which of course I do!), but because he always looks better at LCM and Gravvy can be a bit inconsistent. Jones was rusty in his first game back and mostly out of position in the 2nd, but he has enough credit in the bank to persist with him.

I reckon you could flip a coin between the two.
At least the Diaz vs Jota debate can be put to bed for a few months. A settled front 3 will do wonders.
I'd opt with Jones. Fresher legs edges it and he deserves some game time. Coming back against City isn't a cakewalk.
If Nunez hasn't scored by 55 I'd bring him off for Gakpo. I think we're back to it being 50/50 who starts at 9. Gakpo looked sharp yesterday.

Gravenberch isn't a natural for the LCM, he is more of a 'roamer' which I think was why he didn't get game time in Germany. Jones, however, is more positionally disciplined.
For Fulham I agree it's a toss-up for who starts and I'd be confident with either. Great place to be when you consider they are 21/22 years old. Add those two to Elliott (20) and Bajcetic (19) and you realise how well we've done in recruitment

Hold that thought (December 17th)
They’ll get a proper shoeing if and when it costs us dearly. So far this season you have to say it hasn’t. In the games we dropped points we got what we deserved on chances created. (Other than Spurs which wasn’t on us)
HOOOOLLLLDDD!!! We are saving that for ETH's last game.
