Vicario Porro, Romero, Dragusin, van de Ven Sarr, Bentancur, Kulusevski Johnson, Richarlison, Son I have a feeling he’ll do the stupid thing though and pick Emerson LB.
I think he'll either pick Emerson at left-back or switch to a back five and do something really weird. Van de Ven in that inverted fullback role would be a risky one, in my opinion. Porro didn't look 100% to me at the end of the Arsenal game. 3 games in a week for him may be too far in his current situation.
I think Sarr needs to start. He’s not a complete player yet but he really does glue the midfield together better than anyone else. I think Kulu is also a really important player as he’ll help us retain the ball and progress through the Chelsea press. I think Ange didn’t say anything to worry about with Porro, so that’s good. Vic Porro Romero Dragusin VdV Sarr Bentancur GLC Kulu Richy Son This for me please. I don’t love Kulu in midfield but think he needs to be on the pitch for this game. There’s a chance Ange thinks Bents and Sarr are a bit too similar so maybe he starts Bissouma instead of one of them.
Its Chelsea, No Udogie or Davies.... I know lets play a back 3 with Son at LWB, what could possibly go wrong.
Much as I loved him, he made quite a few bizarre decisions over the years. Son in the FA cup and Lucas in the CL have to be the top 2. Thinking Ndombele was an athlete comes a close third.
No idea who half those players are, which is an indication of both how busy and how bad Chelsea have been in the market.
A big step in the right direction is starting Richarlison for the remaining games. The entire front line is wonky without someone leading it and it neuters our best attacker by playing him somewhere it is infinitely easier to deal with.
Stanford bridge away. Might as not play it and just give Chelsea a 3-0 win. Is it 2 wins there in the PL era? Absolutely pathetic record
neither do the Chelsea fans. Think Lavia and Nkunku were signed for like a combined £85m and between them have managed like 4 appearances for us all season Our injury list is insane.
I’ve already written this off as a loss. Whatever the circumstances we are always **** in this game. Although I was there for one of our 2 wins though when dele scored 2.
I hope we at least show a load of fight in this game and don’t go out with a whimper. I’m already dreading any set piece, as everyone knows it’s our weakness.
