Middlesbrough v Sunderland
----------------------Valdes
Valencia----Van Dijk------Espinosa------Rose
--------Locatelli-----Rabiot----Bentaleb
Ounas-----------------------------------Ribery
----------------------Origi
Subs - Konstantopolous, Barragan, Forshaw, Sims, Fosu Mensah, Stuani
Midfield to stay compact and press as a unit to cut off their passing options.
We want to win the ball high up the field and get the front 3 going forward asap.
Bentaleb to be the most attacking of our midfielders, but Rabiot also free to support the attack
Attack with width, use the FBs to overlap and see if their wings fancy tracking back, Ribery cut inside to occupy Kante
Van Dijk to man mark the main striker and marshall our defence, Espinosa cover
Full backs free to go forward and provide width
Winning at 70 - Barragan for Bentaleb - go to 5 at the back and play on the counter
Losing at 70 - Stuani for Locatelli - all out attack

TACTICS (150 words)
This week we have a tough game against Middlesbrough but a winnable game. The back four need to be solid, both full backs focus on defending, as we tuck in and form a tight unit. In front of the defense I want Romeu to sit deeper and protect, with Kante and Gueye being quick to close down their midfielders. Going forward I want us to attack quickly, with Defoe the poacher and Wilson and Redmond both nominally as wingers but in reality have the license to drift across the final third looking for space. Especially look between the full back and centre back as you can guarantee Rose and Valencia will push on. Lindelof is out so there may be a centre back we can target.
SUBSTITUTIONS
If winning - Cyprien on for Gueye, fresh legs in midfield.
If losing - Lingard for Romeu. Go 4-4-2 with Wilson upfront.
Burnley v Watford
Subs: Robinson, Alvarez, Mendy, Conti, Hendrick, Forsberg,
Tactics:
Defence
High pressing game, winning possession high up the pitch.
Barzagli to mark main striker, Elvedi to pick up second striker or sweep up behind if spare.
Full backs to pick up wingers, force them wide or to cross from deep.
Defour and Bakayoko protecting the back four, allowing full backs to bomb on.
Attack
Using high pressure game to win ball back and attack with pace & urgency
Bernardeschi and Oyarzabal out wide, but come narrow to allow full backs to overlap. Swap sides to create confusion.
Defour to pull strings from deep. Feeding the full backs and wingers.
When narrow, Bernardeschi and Oyarzabal look to play through balls to forwards.
Belotti and Iheanacho working in tandem on shoulders of the CBs. Plenty of movement stretching the defence.
Subs:
Forsberg for Oyarzabal, Mendy for Grimaldo, Conti for Zappacosta on 65ins – for fresh legs
vs
-------------Pantilimon--------------
Janmaat--Kaboul--Silva--Kolasinac
----------Capoue--Motta------------
Robben------Pereyra-------Moses
--------------Immobile--------------
Subs: Cathcart, Britos, Holebas, Watson, Behrami, Ighalo, Sinclair.
Focus on our game, work the ball around looking to exploit the wings with Robben out wide.
Moses playing a different style game further forward today.
Pereyra to roam in the final third and look to slot in Immobile
Kolasinac and Janmaat to get up in support of Moses and Robben respectively.
Motta and Capoue to provide a shield in the central area, looking to squeeze possession back off Burnley
Silva and Kaboul to collaborate well with Kaboul on the cover and Silva standing ground working the box area.
Immobile to look to get in and around the CB's causing problems and looking to attack the goal at all times.
Subs: 80th Minute: Behrami on for Motta for more energy late on
85th Minute: Ighalo on for Immobile to switch it up and provide some more pace

Results Everyone but Miky may add £2m
- Voter 1 :
- Middlesbrough vs Sunderland
Both teams matched each other in a similar formation but I think Sunderland would edge this. Their midfield three is packed full of energy and that's where they win the game. SUNDERLAND WIN
Burnley vs Watford
Think Burnleys high pressure tactics were too much for Watford to handle. Belotti got the upper hand against Kaboul numerous occasions. Watford were decent up front but Watford would have been better playing on the counter imo. BURNLEY WIN
- Voter 2:
Boro vs Sunderland - Sunderland win
injuries hit bam hard doesnt have much of a goal threat with the injuries, Trebs lack creativity from midfield but i think with Defoe up top more likely to pinch the winner
Burnley vs Watford - Watford win
I like the way Afro has set up but telling the wingers to come in off the wing places right into the hands of Miky by going to straight into his DM's so doesn't really help attacking when better off staying wide tbh. Watford wise id prefer Moses to play where he was at the moment to make him more effect. I could see Immobile getting some joy off Elvedi. If i could id label it draw tbh but over 90 mins could see Watford pinching a close one
- Voter 3:
- Boro – Think it’s pretty clear where the weak link is in the Boro team and you have to question a manager of BamBam’s standing to drop to Espinosa, sure you’ve lost Lindelof for the game but you really need better back up. Up front despite the injuries it’s still an exciting set up though perhaps a tad limited for goals. Think they’ll get lots of chances through the wings as Sunderland gone for a compact set up and Valencia/Rose are two of the most in-form FBs in the league.
Sunderland – Midfield wise that’s a solid trio in the centre of the pitch, one of if not the best in the league with the acquisition of Kante, it’s perhaps lacking in ideas though from that base. Bartra I’d be looking to move on, just not been great for Dortmund in RL.
Overall I’d give this a 0-0 draw if I could but based upon Trebs’s powerhouses in midfield I’m edging it to him.
Burnley v Watford
Burnley – Lovely looking team throughout now and it’s beginning to show how investment can improve teams when you’ve got the likes of Mendy, Conti and Forsberg on the bench. One thing I’d raise is Bernardeschi playing on the right wing, traditionally he’s played there but his excellent form this season has come from playing on the left wing, think all his goals this season have come from that flank. Despite Watford having Silva I just can’t see them holding off the pairing of Belotti and Iheanacho for 90 mins.
Watford – Something’s just not quite clicking into gear this season for Miky and whilst he’s brought in a couple of big names such as Robben and Silva there’s still quite the framework of the original Watford underneath.
Burnley win, sorry to Miky but I’d have this by a couple of clear goals too currently.

I was voter 3 on the grassy knoll.
Forgot about Gibson but the fact remains if you've got a hit on a position then you look to replace it sorry

And saying that statement could quite easily bite me on the ass this week with Alli and Jesus out.

Yeah I kinda resigned myself to a loss knowing I'd lost 2 of my 3 best attackers and CBs !

Got a bone to pick with you voter 3. Bernardeschi starts on the right but my instruction is for my AMs to interchange.
And in fairness most of his success has been when he has come centrally with illicic.
