My guess at their team…

Turner (USA national team)

Tomiyasu (Japanese national team)
Tierney (Scotland national team)
Holding
Cedric (Portuguese national team)

Elneny (Egyptian national team)
Vieira (Portugal national team)
Lokonga (Belgian national team)

Marquinhos (Sao Paulo star and Brazil junior teams)
Smith Rowe (England national team)
Nelson or Nketiah

Looks decent to me. They may throw xhaka or odegaard or Saka or Martinelli in too .

Best bet is to sit deep and kick s**t out of them for an hour until they start panicking. Worked for the Geordie’s last week

Yeah, but only Turner and Tomiyasu were good enough to play at the World Cup. The rest of them are probably ****.

I'll also be checking the Arsenal line-up and bench - to see who's missing, and who we might have taken from them - money talks.

Ron Atkinson

bitter rivals Cambridge

no one comes to Oxford expecting it to be a walk over

It has to be said I’m surprised how many yanks have texted me last couple of days asking about this game and if it’s a real game that my team are playing . They all love wrexham and Leeds out here as well as man citeh

 

[Jolteon]

Cannot bloody wait for tonight.

McGinty
Anderson Moore Long Brown
Bate McGuane CamBran
Murphy Taylor Bodin

1-1, Brannagan thunderbolt late on to secure a replay.

Well I nailed the team, hopefully I've nailed the result too.

Not a bad team. Hope they will be strong.

 

[Jaboysmith]

Saka and martinelli start

 

[unification]

Yoav Sade is deemed a better option for the bench than Jodi Jones .

They are definitely strong, Saka Martinelli both playing

 

[Jolteon]

Martinelli v Djavan is f*****g terrifying
