I still think Jose will pick a strong team , despite his excuses, he will not want to lose to Lampard again. I predict Kane will start as well. 
 

Their 2nd team will surely beat Macca Tel Aviv. 

Have to agree,its just jose and his mind games..

Hope to see Werner with Giroud

Mendy in Goal, Giroud up front

Good team

Good line-up, I hope we smash them to bits.

COME ON YOU BLUES!

The Reguillon fanboys are going to be unbearable if he has the better game tonight.

A start for Mendy!

Assume we're playing 4231?

No Kane but a strong line up from Spurs 

Still don't like Werner not on the top but at least he will combine with Giroud who happened to be the best in the business in terms of combinations and involving his teammates.

Good line up. If we don't beat them w**kers, its going to be 100% on the players. 

I don't care how Spurs are going to start, they can put their best lineup or their reserve, it doesn't matter. We must finish them today.

Big chance for Tomori, CHO and finally a goal by Werner?

Let's put a good performance tonight, COME ON CHELS!!

Good match for Werner to get his first Chelsea goal(s)!

Alonso dropped from the squad entirely despite only playing 45 minutes

A back four that has never played together, including a new left back as well as a new goalkeeper... this is going to be interesting.

Both going for it. Should be a good one. 

This was a lineup a lot of people wanted to see. Lets win this.. can't lose to these clowns

What more could we ask for, both clubs putting out a lineup to win, so lets SMASH & GRAB !!

Hardly surprising.

Silva also completely left out, hopefully he is not injured.

I'm actually really happy with this lineup, could've probably swapped Werner and CHO on the sides but besides that, I'm glad. 

I am curious how well the Kovacic-Jorginho-Mount midfield is going to work with a back-four. I just don't see how we are going to become solid defensively with 2 CBs, two offensive minded full-backs and no holding midfielder. I am aware Azpilicueta plays today and he is no offensive full-back but once Reece is back in this line-up just doesn't look like it's ever going to work.

Could be a back 3 with CHO at RWB.

It isn’t.

It could be.

Our back 4 has never worked regardless under Lampard. But we had our best parts of last season with those 3 in the middle, hopefully we can see that rectified again here.

We did not get Silva to waste his legs on the Carabao cup. 

Happy to see Mendy start!
