How come he keeps playing Azpi as wingback? He offers nothing going forward. Why not CHO?

Havertz not even on the bench has he picked up a knock?

We want to be fighting for the title again. If we're going to do that, we need a world class striker. Can't get one of those without CL football.

 

Is very hard but not impossible.

Likewise we had CL football and ended up with Werner lol.

If Tuchel is a real man he will start Gilmour but we all know he's a chicken, a chicken that puts all his hopes in the next sock color.

DON'T MOCK THE SOCK!

James Is Wing Back, Azpi Is In The Back 3

It could be Reece playing there. Don’t know until they line up.

@Malta Blue, what did you predict? I have 1-1 with a Mount goal in the 29th minute.

Couldn't be bothered today I very rarely get ove 25 pts and I only ever do it every now and then so I figured what's the point

Yup and sometimes he goes forward anyway if we're struggling to break a team down

Hamstring issue for Havertz.

Good to have Kovacic on the bench but almost ridiculous that Jorginho have to play again. He must be absolutely knackered having played everything for a long time now.

This starting XI can get after it

Tuchel is just being stubborn to show that Azpi can be wing back... Not so excited about the line up but hopefully Kova can come in if things are tight. I also think that Gilmour should be on the bench for Emerson who we know will never come on

Ah yes we're playing the actual FA cup final team

FFS what is Jourinho doing even in the squad let alone in the starting line up...and why isn't CHO starting with James replacing Dave...and why isn't Kovacic alongside Kante...getting a bit f**ked off with Tuchel team selections

His arm must ache all the way up from all his important tactical pointing. 

And just like that Gilmour geta dropped, even though we have both Alonso and Emerson on the bench...🥴

Tuchel is still playing without a striker, hope I am wrong but it will be difficult to score today.

I remain in the top 10,000 by sheer perseverance, not on great predictions  The cup final got me 7 points, my lowest ever

I sent in my football manager CV but I don’t think they took me seriously. 

No gilmour is taking the piss unless hes injured, but of course Jorginho starts. 

Emerson and Alonso on the bench WHY !,!

Zlatan and Suarez went to clubs without CL.

Absolutely ridiculous. He was one of our best players against Arsenal. WTF is Tuchel doing?

It makes me sad and furious at the same time. There is NO reason both Emerson and Alonso need to be on the bench over Gilmour. I would be absolutely devasted to be treated like that if I was a young footballer.
