I like the front 3. 

Should give the Utd defence a nightmare to keep them quiet.

it's just damage limitation, we should still win easily 

Respectfully disagree. Think is a tactical masterstroke.

United being tricky, we need to perform from the 1st minute to the last for this one. 

Concentration needs to be 100%

Come on you Blues!!

Gotta applauded Carrick here. He has shown more tactical thinking in one match than Ole did his whole time at United. Just have to applauded him, ballsy.

Don’t see the brilliance of it really. He’s been told not to get hammered and pick the most defensive team possible leaving a couple of speedies up top and hope for a break. Big Sam team and he was never called brilliant. 

Glad to see Tuchel rotating, I think Pulisic did well up top even though he didn't get too many chances or touches. Timo will be a better option for quick counters with Christian giving us a good option of the bench we dont want to burn him out too soon after returning from injury. 

Mount gives us a good option of the bench also, glad to see Hakim getting more game time. CHO undroppable atm hopefully he can provide a spark and really test AWB who I don't rate as highly as other fullbacks in the league at least defensively.

Paramount RLC is intelligent today, by all means dribble but he needs to make sure he doesn't get caught in possession too many times trying to do too much.

Of course I won't applaud him, are you crazy, principles are at stake here

Without McGuire they are weak defensively in the air. We are normally really good on set pieces and have Ziyech there to deliver as he does so well.

He has made up for it with all 3 of Fred, Match and McTomm to help Bailly and Lindeloff.

Also they know we will have most of the ball but when they counter it will be get the ball to Bruno to pick out the ultra fast Rushford and Sancho. Then he has Ronnie and Greenwood as plan B. Smart imo.

Strider is the forum shamen, and axeman is the forum voodoo doctor 

Should have Ashley Cole on the bench just staring out Ronaldo all game long and occasionally just point in his pocket. 

It looks Carrick is doing what ole did successfully against big team. Play speedster up top, play very2 defensive, sit deep and counter 

Come on you blues. Prove me and @strider6004 wrong 

Anyone else’s Sky just go blank?

Edit: It’s back! Bumhole unclenched.

Whose turn is it to score next? Ruben's?

time to get slaughtered for united 

Surprised Mount isn't in the lineup.  I would think he would be good for 60 min by now at least.

Carrick called us Tottenham in the pre match interview, his nerves looked shot already.

Wishful thinking?

and pedro scores!

Juan Mata is still at United! He deserves to be winding down his career somewhere my nicer!

Ziyech could have rolled that to RLC in loads of space.
