Wish I didn’t ask.

Villa look a bit short, too. But should still moonwalk this.

Hopefully Kamara and Onana being injured disrupts them, but that team is miles better than ours.

Can't see anything but a routine home win TBH.

Realistically Grealish probably gets in their side ahead of Buendia (who is still a good player). Similar with Pickford and Martinez arguably. Emery better manager than Moyes.

Truly up against is in this one.

With all our players available we could compete with these, but it's not over with the team we've put out just need a bit of luck and a good performance.

Just cannot wrap my head around McNeil instead of Dibling. A player who we will almost certainly sell this summer playing over a £45m winger.

Yes Dibling has had bad games and moments but you've got to play him through them. He's not starting another minute this season once Ndiaye is back.

Its such a waste of ongoing development for a very talented young player.

Our team looks powder puff up front, it *could be a long afternoon* hope not..

I really don't like it either but Moyes is Moyes, if you don't graft he won't play you. Armstrong starting says a lot.

Well it's still Xmas on NSNO so we may get a late present.

How bad is chapman as presenter

Why does he take half an hour to end his sentences?

My tree is still up, a resplendent “desert green” color now. Needles hanging on nicely - smells great despite being literal dead wood.

Set pieces, and also telling Dibling that he needs to work a lot harder if he's to get in.

It's fair to argue McNeil doesn't deserve a place either, but it's a good way to say to Dibling that he isn't getting in ahead of anyone if his attitude and lack of fight is going to stink the place out. And Dwight can at least deliver a set piece to a pretty good level which is our most likely route to scoring.

Think we'd all prefer Dibling to be playing and tearing it up, but he's been so bad I don't blame Moyes one bit of not doing so.

I would criticise Moyes more for McNeil over Dibling but the latter just doesn't look remotely arsed about being here or taking his chances.

I wouldn't rather have McNeil but if Dibling started then he's not doing anything either. The lad needs to sort himself out.
