Where’s Paddy ?
He is English, just like Forshaw and Harrison.
Sarcasm aside, this is certainly not how the starting line-up will be. Or if it does, Marsch is very much mistaken.
Who seriously thinks Raphinha will stay?
And why would there be an automatic start for 6 men who have never played in the Premier League, and most of them have played in mid-table leagues so far?
Why should we throw out Bamford, Harrison and our entire earlier squad because of some promising players who have never seriously proven themselves? This starting line up would be a clear recipe for disaster, not to mention our shaky looking defence.
CDK is no centre forward anyway, not to mention that Marsch's basic game is based on two strikers.
So, in short, I think this should be rather a thought experiment and not a real starting XI.
