Its my Birthday so won't be watching as will be drinking multiple pints of Guinness.
Happy birthday !

Looking forward to seeing your drunken comments in the match day thread later on LOL after you've forgotten that you won't be watching 😎

 
That’s probably the best we have right now tbh
Nah.. I think he has panicked. I don’t think Palmer is close to being fit enough to start against what you expect would be a Bournemouth side. Just pray he holds up.

He also has no reason to drop Santos, but the “golden boy” has to play. Starting 2 RBs who he insists can’t cope with the rigour of midweek games doesn’t look smart when we are away in Italy on Tuesday. It’s a must win game though.

 
Best line up he could’ve picked, has he finally learnt his lesson?

We shall see
Disagree. Josh ahead of Chalobah and Santos ahead of Enzo for me.

Delap up front is questionable. Guiu certainly wouldn't be worse.

The league comes first for me. If they can't play twice in a week then its CL they miss.

Agreed. Top 8 is in reach but to get it we need to win on Tuesday. This line up may well mean no Fofana, no James and no Gusto vs Atalanta, which will mean no victory.

 
I concede the point of having 2 RB on the pitch when they can’t play 2 games.

Maresca really doesn’t help himself

 
6 changes today. Yes Fofana & Chabs better than 2 muppets there v Leeds. But can’t help that it’s the mass rotation killing this team. Got us to lose today w a high scoring game. Sorry to do that but Delap makes Jackson look prolific in front of goal & Cole is not match fit to start. They on the other hand are at home and may be better than us if they fire on all cylinders.

I'd leave Chalobah at CB and put Josh at RB, but agree with everyone else. I see some agreeing with Santos being rested as he cant play 2 games a week, why the hell not? Its so weird that some just accept all this moronic rotation, it's no wonder we rarely look like a team connected as a team.

 
Just watched Villa v Arsenhole. Great game. Fab atmosphere. Both teams going for it right til the end. Breathless stuff. Phew!! Now to calm down and find a Chelsea stream🙄

 
Well done Big Enz for throwing the game at Leeds. We should have a minimum chance to reduce the gap to 3 points with Arsenal finally losing a game.

Its like going from Formula 1 to Robin Reliant racing in Slough.
