Match Day Thread Chelsea FC v Sunderland AFC - Saturday 25th October 2025 - KO 15:00

[Dave_39]

Le Fee on wing by looks of it

 

[Mad Maxim]

Hows he tinkering?

Depends exactly how Geetruida's used but I'd expect him to be in a more defensive role than Rigg.

 

[flandersmackem]

RLB must see something in Traore ( I don't )...I guess we must trust the boss, he rarely gets things wrong

 

[Carl and the Passions]

541 is it?

It looks like he's playing RB to me with Hume in at LB. I hope thats how we're gonna play anyway, with 5 at the back

 

[BRMC]

I hope Traore can do something for us today.

Barnes thinks Geetruida playing center back in a 5

I thought the same as you then I thought Mayenda might be a good un to come on late on. Having said that is he on the bench haha. I never looked.

3 x promoted teams from 69 games. Shows what a tall order it is. Anyway its nice knowing we will be the fourth . You heard it here first.

 

[williebeams]

Hang on, our 20m Ivorian winger hasn’t made the bench?

Barnes thinks Geetruida playing center back in a 5

So does the BBC

 

[Mad Maxim]

Echo tweeted a team list with Adingra as one of ten named substitutes, guess they were surprised by his absence too.

 

[Chunksafc]

Xhaka to score today, a rocket from 25 yards.

Can just feel it

If he’s rb id say Hume right sided CB with Reinildo LB in a 5. But that’s pure speculation as I never know these things and am often wrong! (Ask the Mrs)
