Crowley or Byrne will most likely not be in the squad. Why do you think he will start them - not a hope in hell.

If they do happen to make the squad, whose places do they take?

Assuming James McCarthy has some game time under his belt (and given Whelan's free agent status) then he'll walk into the sitting midfielder position.

It will be same back 4 and goalkeeper. 

Hendrick and Hourihane Infront of McCarthy. Although Hendrick is skating on thin ice. 

Robinson McGoldrick ?????

Brady/McClean/O'Dowda not deserving of starting place, so maybe Mick with a curve ball. I dont think he'll give debut to Crowley or Byrne but could see him playing Curtis.

I think Robinson will get the nod ahead of Brady who won't see much game time between now and then. He's gonna be a huge player for us this campaign and has to be an automatic starter. Mick will go with the tried and trusted of Keogh and McClean despite the latter's severe lack of footballing ability. The only spot up for grabs is defensive midfield and could be a toss up between Whelan, McCarthy & Arter.

Robinson has a good chance and i expect he will start him on the right , i don't think Brady will play unless his fortunes change at Burnley ,  the big one for me is defensive midfield and what our options are , still no sign of whelan at a club so it's unlikely he will play any part , so maybe arthur will play or if macCarthy gets more game time at palace he might  have a shout , other than that the only position that's really up for debate is left wing the rest picks itself.

Keogh is Mick's mini me on the pitch, just as Mick was Jack's. It will be difficult to dislodge him from the team.

Brady should be dropped. Hourihane's set piece expertise takes away any reason for him being in the team until his form improves significantly.

It'll be the same starting 11 that won the last 3 games - pending injury and club game time.

Think we’ll see Egan start alongside Duffy rather than Keogh if he plays regularly in the Premier League. 

Arter’s not a great player but at least he’s back fit now which gives us another option in midfield. Ditto James McCarthy. 

Hopefully McClean and Brady are dropped. 

I don’t think Whelan will feature. 

I think we’ll get a 1-1 draw from this game so long as we don’t have a heap of injury withdrawals in the build up.

          Randolph
 Coleman Egan Duffy Stevens
Maguire Hourihane McCarthy (?) Hendrick Robinson
               McGoldrick

Is what i would like to see. In reality, i imagine it'll be Keogh, Brady and McClean rather than Egan, Maguire, Robinson. McCarthy will need to get game time before we think of throwing him in, but assuming he does he's likely to start with Whelan not having a club. Arter may get a recall for this one and if he does, might be the most likely to start in the middle with the other two.

No thank you Turkish......I'm sweet enough

Hope it's not too early to start a thread on the game. Be interested to discuss what way we are going to line up and what we genuinely think is achievable from the game. 

Some lads are bankers to start while there have to be serious doubts over others.
