October 7, 20178 yr Oh for f*cks sake!!! Screw these meaningless international games. For f*cks sake. If Kante is gone for two months along with Morata, our season is over. This past week has been terrible, just waiting to hear Hazard and Azpi come back injured next week, it wouldn't surprise me. Had enough of this crap Edited October 7, 20178 yr by zes
October 7, 20178 yr Hopefully Drinkwater is fit. Also our fixture list for the next month looks pretty easy so we can afford to lose him for a bit.
October 7, 20178 yr could be conte's intense regime though, not necessarily the extra games. however, i do think internationals during the season are ridiculous. should save them for end of the season.
October 7, 20178 yr f**king hell. Kante can run forever and then when he goes to play for France, he busts his hamstring. No way will he be playing against Crystal Palace. Injuries and suspensions are hitting us hard this season. Hazard, Bakayoko, Pedro, Morata, Luiz, Cahill, Drinkwater and now Kante.

October 8, 20178 yr The injury was caused following a lunging tackle from Bulgaria midfielder Spas Delev
October 8, 20178 yr Hope he won’t be out too long need drink water back soon as possible as fabregas in a 2 Man mid is not what we want

Tbf everyone elses excuse was also that they had injuries and we didn't.
October 8, 20178 yr Hopefully Drinkwater is fit. Midfield two of him and Bakayoko against Palace should be more than enough.
October 8, 20178 yr Last time he done his hamstring, he was fit the following week. Absolute machine.
October 8, 20178 yr grade 1 strain rather than a Grade 2 or 3 tear being reported. If thats the case, then likely to miss just 1 game.

I don't care about that, or excuses quite honestly.
October 8, 20178 yr I wouldnt worry about fabregas in a midfield 2 against palace. We have won plenty of games against better teams using him there, so we should have more than enough. Drinkwater wouldn't play ahead of him even if he was fit. He will be eased in. Hopefully kante and morata are back sooner rather than later.

He should just rest for the Palace game even if he is feeling better, its gonna be a long season. Cesc and Baka are enough, could even select one of the younger boys for depth.
October 9, 20178 yr Kante won't play the game of wednesday with French team, so i think he will not be available before Palace's game. Fabregas-Baka are enough for beat Palace, if we not beat Palace with Fabregas and Baka it's shame for us
October 9, 20178 yr Last year this would have been a disaster, this year it's not great but only so long as it's only a couple of games. Need him fully fit so no need to rush. Depending on Drinkwater, the other option is Luiz in midfield with Christensen in the back three.
