What's everyone's thoughts on the team for the semi final. I think most of us would like Elanga and CHO to start, but I think Nuno will bench one of them and play an extra midfield player, like at Spurs. And who plays right back?

Full strength and hopefully Aina is fit, Yates n Ando in the middle, MGW behind Elenga n CHO, with Woody being our Wembley hero?.

Yates is suspended, as is Neco. FYI.
23 Apr 2025 12:38:31
Ah yeah, forgot about that, Toffolo in at LB then and Danilo for yates.

Think he'll play dominguez at right back and probably three at the back
My guess would be
Sels
Dominguez
Morata
Milenkovic
Murillo
Toffolo
Danillo
Anderson
MGW
Elanga
Wood.

Perhaps DTP. Yates will be a big miss to nullify the threat of Bernado Silva and Williams pace against Doku. Assuming Aina isn't fit enough to start i'd go 3 at the back, Morata, Murillo and Malenkovic. Toffolo has earned a start at left wing back ( he does have a wicked early cross on him) and young Eric da Silva Moreira at right back. What a great experience and learning curve at Wembley against one of the quickest and best wingers. You never know he might get up the pitch attacking wise with the security of an extra defender behind him and force Doku to defend.
Dominquez looked distinctly uncomfortable at right wing back against Villa which they exploited early with 2 goals. I’d drop him alongside Anderson and a deeper lying MGW then Elanga just behind Wood in a 5311.
But, hey, what do I know? In Nuno we trust. But we are underdogs with our 3 unavailable key players and Cutys bigger squad of quality players.
But let’s just give it a go! Coyr!

You've got Sels and Morata in your team dtp ? ?.

Balloons where have I said its my choice of the team?
All I've said is what I believe nuno will go with as aina won't be fit and we have suspensions.
