Well thank you for Watford rolling over for Pool, nice start to the weekend that is. Why is it whenever we get an an early kick off nobody feels like rolling over for us?

Anthony Taylor the ref today...the worst ref in the EPL...

Mendy

Chalobah - AC - Dave

James - Kante - RLC - Chilly

Mount Lukaku Timo

Intentionally have Dave covering Rudigers position give the time he played left back, and keep Chalobah where he is most comfortable.

Dave needs to play LB...

Why?

Manc sides joining pool in easy wins. Not a good weekend for us I fear.

Dave

 

James

Agree, most adaptable.

There's rumours Sarr is starting.....

Yeah I’ve seen that too interesting 

Really not sure about Sarr.

Why play Dave there??

Interesting back 3.

Now that is a side which will fail to keep a clean sheet. Good to see Kanté and Loftus-Cheek continuing their run in the team.

Plenty of cover on the bench as well for when Kovačić is sent off for some ridiculous reason.

Maybe he will return to malang sarr? (For the left centre back). He will have been training with tuchel the last 2 weeks so maybe he will trust him to do a good job

tuchel whisperer lol

Not feeling confident after seeing that line up. Feels like a banana skin kind of game.

RLC is going to score today

No chance. He hasn't played competitive football in a while. Absolutely no need to take a risk with him today, especially after that performance in the League Cup.

I have to admit I don't like this. Not at all. But let's trust Thomas...

I have full confidence in the lad 

That is one defensive team.  We don;t have enough from midfield to help attack.  Come on TT, sometimes you have to hit on 16 at the Blackjack table.

Why not Trevor, Christensen, Dave

James and Chilwell for a back 5??
