Green and yellow horizontal striped socks....you never know

Our new manager is very close to having a Steve McClaren style hair island.

Black socks matter!

Whoa thats not a Team any of us forecast, So much for Mount, Pulisic, Werner, team of experience it seems

Jesus, some of the people who usually cull the herd on here are being drama queens. It's the first game, he's had two days to pick a team, that means James, Mount and Abraham are never going to play again? Calm down.

You also listen to Athletico mince, the funniest podcast ever?

Tuchel says he’s gone for experience for his first game

Bannable offence is you ask me...

So is it all Jorginho’s fault until Alonso gets on or do we blame the whole thing on Rudiger now and be done with it?

I already know who I'm blaming, and that's Gol15. 

Let's hope we get the points, COME ON CHELS!

Damn it’s disheartening to see Mount, James and Abraham out of the team. Gilmour not even on the bench.

It’s only the first game but clearly he trust the experienced players more. Abit daft the academy players are having to prove themselves again when they’ve been our best players over past 2 years.

Come on Chelsea.

Peter Kenyans fault, obviously. 

Newbies today, don't know a scapegoat if it bleats them in the face 

Hoping Jorginho steps up in this game. Ideal player for Tuchel's style I think he could have a good influence on him

Understandable. I'll be interested to see how quickly he makes changes if he doesn't like what he sees out there.

Tuchel said this is "the most unfair team I've ever picked, based on one training session where everyone was good. I've gone for experience".

He could have watched our last 2 games as well.

He might just be gaining some experience himself 

That's a very depressing line up.

I think Tuchel is in for a shock tonight. He’ll be mortified by Jorginho, and then even more mortified when Alonso comes on.
