Urgh, don’t know about anybody else but not keen on the look of that atall, if you don’t have Kante (why though?) you surely need kovacic and not Barkley 

Just read that Kante felt a niggle in his hamstring yesterday so Lamps obv doesn't want to risk him, hopefully it's nothing too serious 

Barkley, Willian & Pedro. It’s going to be a long afternoon 

Not sure about that starting lineup.

Is it a 4-3-3 or a 4-2-3-1? Looks more like the latter.

Are we ever gonna see my man Bats in the starting lineup, either as a sole striker or him and Tammy leading us up front ? I still think that he has the game to be a starter for us and I have been a fan of his ever since we bought him. Unfortunately, neither of the managers he was playing under gave him a chance to prove himself....

Really finding it hard this season to clear up the injury room. Very frustrating for Lamps I’m sure not being able to put full strength team out any time.

Kante out again such a shame 

Zouma injured or Guehi preferred on the bench ?

Confused why you'd start Barkley over Kovacic and Pedro/Willian over Pulisic in all honesty

Probably the same thing Giroud has had ...

This is what worries me! Hope it works and we get a result but these three in the same teams doesn’t fill me with confidence at all.

Those French boys...

Not the team I expected. Hope Barkley can play two good games in a row

All part of the master plan to break it to Barkley, Pedro and Willian gently that they aren't in the best XI ... it will be a dodgy first half, 0-0 at HT, all three of them playing poorly, and then Frank will sub all of them and win the game 5-0.

Match day.....COME ON YOU BLUES !

That line up could make things a lot more difficult than I thought it would be today. Every game we seem to have a fresh set of injuries. I'm not sure why Kante is out, but seeing as he is not even on the bench, I worry that it's another injury, I hope I'm wrong.

Alonso in a back 4 worries me, he often get's ripped apart in this formation.

 

It's getting really frustrating seeing us struggle to field our strongest team. I'm starting to wonder if Kante, Rudiger, Emerson, James, Kante, Loftus-Cheek and Hudson-Odoi will play any games together this season.

Sad to see Kante absent for this match.

Hoping our strong midweek victory over Grimsby Town in the League Cup gives the squad confidence heading into today's match.

Need a stream

Gotta give it to Lamps. He is all about giving chances. Even to the opposition with Barkely as a DM and Willian and Pedro in the same team lol.

Not even that will stop us today though. Home win, I doubt a clean sheet though lol.

Why is everyone talking about Barkley being a liability. Nailed on srarter for England and a good player.

One too many touches there

Seen about 10 flicks already. All came off mind 

Jorginho got to do better there, fell really nice to him.
