[didierforever]

line ups?

[didierforever]

GC back into the team is really disappointing

[TomCFC85]

Dear Rudiger
I know you were expecting a meritocracy at this club.
But the joke's on you.

[Chigzzer]

Cahill over rudiger and Fabregas over boko interesting. Rudigar earned his place. Hopefully we not over run in midfield 

[DonAntonio]

FFS Garry back in, I don't like that call, Rudiger offers more, I'd have Rudiger and Zappa moving forward 

[DidierDrogbalala]

Why Cahill Why ????

[TomCFC85]

Honestly, I'd be happy playing the first 60 minutes with a more defensive partnership e.g Bakayoko and Kante and then bring Fabregas on to find those creative pockets.
I honestly only think Fabregas should really be starting against smaller teams that will set up to defend against us, works to both his and our advantage.
Arsenal will be looking to play more open football I imagine, more need for a defensive midfielder.

Exactly what I was hoping. Let Fabregas come in when they're a bit tired 

[BordeauxBlue]

I hope Cahill has a perfect game because he's going to get scapegoated hard if things go tits up.

 

Strange there's no Bakayoko - would have thought he'd have been perfect to rough up their midfield.

[TomCFC85]

Sanchez is on the bench though 

[EdinburghBlue]

Disappointed with the line up and Cahill walking back in the team after costing us already this season.

 

I trust Conte knows what he's doing though so let's get behind the team and roll these c**ts over!!

[Chigzzer]

Wait, isn't this pretty much the same team as the one in the community shield? 

[TomCFC85]

I've got one of those feelings.
I either think we'll thrash them e.g 3-0, 4-0 etc
Or they might sweat a result e.g 1-1, 0-1

[Imran_CFC]

No Ozil or Sanchez starting for Arsenal

[Andy2461]

Dont understand the cahill call one bit

Morata starts, but I think so.

Pretty sure the phrase "No Ozil" is a given
Even when he does actually start.

[CFCholland]

Don't understand this line up at all. Would've gone with Rudiger instead of Cahill and 3 in midfield. 
I trust Conte 100% but I've lost a bit of the good feeling I had about this match now..

[ChelsaePirate]

Why Cesc & Cahill ?

Cesc will cause acres of space in Midfield 

Cahill will need cover up by Alonso

It is 0/0 first half

Hate to say it Cesc is former gooner should be benched if any sport psychology is applied in Chelsea
