That’s why you play 3 at the back so Rudiger is pulled out wide to cover! We don’t need 3 centre backs staying in the middle marking no striker lol. Let Walker worry about what Alonso is doing imo.

Played pretty well tonight in a makeshift back 3 and it changed his angle of cross nicely for the goal. Would like to see him there with Silva next to him

Went down late with cramp, I think that has more bearing on him not taking a spot kick.

anyone got an early stream?

Did he play for us pre season?

Kepa Chalobah Christiansen Sarr james Saul Kante chilwell ziyech Werner Odio should be strong enough to see off Villa if not we have the cavalry on the bench

So frustrating last night seeing him hug the touchline, get in some good advance positions to keep checking back and passing backwards! Needs to start getting the ball in the box nice and early before defenders get a chance to set themselves for the likes of lukaku to attack. Also we need someone else attacking them and the only other attacker we have with an aerial threat would be Kia so for me he has to play if your playing Reece as WB.

He’s transformation is nothing short of remarkable! He really is a top class centre back in a back 3

You could be right as he improved more as the game progressed. Looked like he was trying to hard and snatching at things in the first half

Showed today how vital Mason is to our team but great that we got away with it and a nice rest for him!

Jesus give the guy a chance!

This guy is the gift that keeps on giving lol

No way in a million years our midfield 2 will be Mount and Kante lol

Lol yes he got the assist. But I think you’ll find it was kova’s through ball that supplied the striker. I can see Kante linking up very well from right mid with lukaku

I said we could see, personally I’d play Mason jorge Kante across the middle but I wouldn’t be surprised to see Kova in for a compact three. anyway remind me who fed our forward Sunday for the first goal ?

Agree completely, could even see us switching to 3-5-2 with Mason and Kia benched.

His vision, touch and execution in the part he played in the second goal was exquisite!

Easy but predictable , Mason

No way we can let him go on loan. Playing his premier league debut he coped with Saha with ease and even found time to bang in a worldy!

Best player on the pitch in all aspects of the game today

No idea what this guy is smoking but it’s some heavy sh*t!

After listening to Tuchel I think we will line up like this, mendy Chalaboah zouma rudi callum kovi kante alonso ziyech Werner havertz then he will be looking to get minutes into mason Christiansen jorge James and chilly

How about his Belgium understudy Batman?

I agree TAA crosses lots but IMO often crosses for the sake of crossing. Reece is far more accurate and I think we will see that this season with lakaku on the end of them .

I don’t get all this RCB for James mularky ! he’s probably the best crosser of the ball in the country and you want him wasted at RCB lol
