Chelsea vs Newcastle United (PL) Sun 27th October 24 14:00 GMT

I think Nkunku will start. Taking him off after an hour on Thursday didn’t make much sense unless he starting tomorrow .

Lavia starts and I think we might mix up the A and B teams a bit.

4-1 Chelsea.

Fofana, James. Nkunku, Jackson


Who do you think Nkunku starts in place of? Sancho or Noni?




I think both Neto and nkunku will either start or be first ones subbed on. I was surprised cucu wasn't rested towards the end of the midweek game to start today. 

Who gets subbed off? That depends imho, havent seen Newcastle play recently but I guess whichever wing is not effective enough, but money is on the LW first.

Neto did enough for a start imho. Nkunku didn't, but I'm hoping it's just easing back from injury/slight niggle.

Must win.

Anything less would be a massive disappointment, Newcastle could well be a rival for one of European spots by end of the season.

I’d be tempted to give Mudryk a start.

 
Huge match for us, goes without saying. 

Madueke must start here if you ask me and Palmer has to be in a good rhythm and for the midfield well let's hope it's Caicedo and Lavia since I wouldn't be confident of Enzo being there, Bruno and Tonali would find easy gaps.

 
Match day. No reason we shouldn’t be winning this but getting results at home has been a challenge. 

Bad results today we could be 10th. Good results and we’re 4th. Crazy. 

Come on Chelsea. Bring it. Want it. Be clinical and sort out the mistakes. Score 3 today and we win. 

KTBFFH!

Yeah, the perception of how we’ve been doing under Maresca will be heavily influenced by todays result I reckon

 
I'd be tempted to start Mudryk, or at least give him significant minutes off the bench, seeing as (a) he has found a modicum of form recently, and (b) he scored twice against the barcodes last season.

 
Tough match Newcastle setup to counter attack and probably will get at least one or two clear cut chances based on our defence.

 
Cant help that we need Nkunku to be playing in this one. You know how Eddie Howe plays - basically like Stoke. They’ll crowd the box. You need to score scrappy goals. 

 
Curious to see if it's James the one inverting, with Gusto more defensive to keep up with their wingers and full back's pace.
