DH there are many reasons at this stage. Seeing players in a match, part of negotiations to sell, resting first team options. There are ways to change this, subs available. I think it's good that Ange sees this for himself in a competitive situation.

No there aren’t, that’s the thing.

We don’t have European football this season so what are we resting first team players for? Ange will have seen all of these players in training plus pre-season, there’s a reason he’s mostly stuck with the same first XI for the first few league games.

All this selection is likely going to do is see us crash out of a cup on first opportunity.

I think you are rushing to judgement far too quickly.

Judgement on what? A number of these players have been here for years and been poor. There’s no rushing of judgement when we know about 75% of this team shouldn’t be on the pitch.
 
Decent save by Forster. Muniz should not be getting a header off like that in the box.
 
1-0 HT. Awful performance. Too many changes and it's destroyed the flow of the side.
I'm all for using the squad, but you shouldn't need a full overhaul after 3 games.
We're still in this but we'll definitely need several subs to do anything.

They didn't create a lot, but we basically created nothing.
Packed the middle, failed to drive through it at any point and didn't use the wide men, either.
Crap kit, too. Is the ground still unfinished?
 
Awful, awful, awful.

That was Conte-ball.

Zero need to make that many changes and it shows massively. First black mark by Ange, especially after he said the other day he wants to win everything possible, that is not a team that’ll win you anything.

Make 5 subs at HT.

Terrible half only Forster comes out of that half with any credit.

Looked like the team that finished last season probably because in the main it was.

Swap the whole midfield for the 1st Choice and give Scarlett a run too
 
Hojbjerg, lo Celso are playing like they already have their bags packed. Sanchez just being Sanchez. No words for Richarlison.
Against a decent, hardworking Fulham side.

I imagine Ange will wait 10-15 before making changes, but I'm not sure there's any point in waiting.
