What's new

Chelsea v Liverpool (PL) Sun 13th Aug 2023 16:30 GMT

Could be Santos, could be Gallagher Certainly won't be Ugo. Otherwise that is the team I'd pick as too soon for Disasi

 
Swap Sterling out for Nkunku and Carney central where you currently have Nkunku. Carney and Jackson have looked our two best players in pre-season.

Les certainly won't start it will probably be a loan season for him, so any one of Santos, Casadei or Gallagher will be in next to Fernandez.

Also hoping Madueke is fit for the opening game.

Reece  Silva  Colwill  Chilwell​

Enzo  Santos​

Nkunku  Chukwuemeka  Maatsen​

Jackson​

If it was based on pre-season, that's what I'd go for. Can easily transition into a 433 with Chukwuemeka dropping deeper in build up. I imagine Sterling will likely get in there for some experience. Mudryk to get the last half hour and terrorise Trent. I believe us and Liverpool are the only Prem teams to go unbeaten in pre-season aren't we? Could be a great game.

 
I also wonder if Nkunku will start as a 9 with Jackson on the bench for the first game and Sterling out side?

 
Usually this would be a draw but Liverpool rebuilt their midfield with Mac Allister and Szoboszlai so they look very scary on paper, mainly I'm not sure we are good enough to survive their press.

They look less impressive when their key players are injured which has been the case but now with Jota back and their defenders back as well, this could be a tough reality check if Pochettino underestimates Klopp.
