So not THAT close then?!!

Haha I did think that when reading it back. 'Other than the three or four players I have a problem with, that is exactly the starting XI I wanted."

I already know who’s responsible if we lose ??? can anyone guess???

Alonso?

Same old 4-3-3. Why?

The worst thing you can do is start moaning about players getting a start, you'll just tempt fate and end up looking a right mug.

Wtf is Jorginho doing in the starting line up. Ffs what the diddly f**k Frank ???

I understand that but I think Fulham will park the bus so it’d be nice to have Gilmour dictating the play. 

Hopefully he’ll get some minutes today but I doubt it with his strong the bench is looking.

Highly doubt they will be parking the bus. I mean we will have more possession but they will counter a lot and will give it a go. Especially when they see how leaky we have been recently.

That’s from the We Are The Shed guys, they’ve also raised over £1000 for The Felix Project (foodbank Reece James promotes). If anyone wants to donate clicky clicky.

Hopefully Fulham are looking for a point so midfield strength becomes a moot point, if the case is that we'll be attacking 10 men behind the ball then Jorginho isn't a bad option to help pick the lock.

Giroud has a new haircut. How’s he had that done?!

With Kante suspended and Jorginho playing CDM Frank has to play Kova over Kai to offer some protection on the transition.

I assume CHO will start against Leicester with such a short turnaround and Pulisic will switch to the bench. 

Disappointed with CHO on the bench, he deserves to start and he's in good form, much better than Pulisic's.

I really hope this team will get us a victory tonight because Lampard's job in danger. I agree to bench Werner, I think Havertz could play because he gave us something in the last two games.

4-2-3-1 Its clear that not all players(Giroud is not in that) are for centering. You see City without Aguerro or don't see?????????????????????????????????????

Don’t understand shifting the two center backs again, especially with error prone Rudiger. If Frank doesn’t work out here I honestly think his shifting players in and out and his inability to run something other than a 4-3-3 will be a huge reason why. 

Let’s hope Jorginho and Kova pick up that form they were in last season that got us all pissed off at an unfit, one legged Kante being put straight back in.

How does he look? Bear in mind that the result might hinge on it...

Perhaps the midfield selection is a message to the board to sign Rice LOL

I think Giroud just steps out of bed and looks good. Expect for his creepy, tiny eyes.

No one is giving him £60m+ to sign a DM when he has £130m attacking talent underperforming on the bench.

It’s funny that all footballers seem to be married to hairdressers 

Didn’t spot that Zouma is in the bench. 

Another defeat or draw, I will call Roman to sack Lampard and to put me instead. 

I’ve always liked Craven Cottage. There’s something nice about it.

I’m kinda glad that Werner isn’t playing this one. Might not be suited to him.
