source ?

 

benchkaku lets goo

ok i see it

It could be a tough game for our less than rapid wingbacks against Salah and Mane

Alonso vs Salah... let's hope we will control the game in their side and avoid counter attacks from them.

COME ON CHELS!!!!!!!!!!

No Ziyech...

Would of preferred Saar over Alonso but apart from that 👌

The exact same team that drew 2-2 with Liverpool last month.

Thought he was fit?

No Ziyech or Christensen 

Is Christensen injured?  I don’t recall that happening last match.

7 defenders tells you the type of game we will be playing today.  No attacking threat from the midfield and total reliance on Havertz.  With Liverpool playing a high line you need to get behind them, if you do then you will likely score.  Would have played Mount in front of Kovacic and Kante and playing behind Havertz, Werner and Pulisic.  Or Havertz playing behind Mount, Werner Pulisic, with Kante and Kovacic and then dropped Alonso; defensively he is shocking and has no pace against their wingbacks, Salah or Mane..

Probably going for a CL final repeat and why not? We can be strong defensively and we already know how Liverpool are going to play. Not wise to go toe to toe with an attacking team in form.

It's literally the same team that dominated them for 2/3rds of the league game.

We’ll probably Alonso is instructed not to go pass the midfield line, at least I hope that is the case.

The keys of the game for me is Pulisic and Mount, if these two play well i think we have good chance to add another trophy but im not really confident in these two this season.

If only Reece was fully fit, he would be starting

I bet there will be a substantial difference in class in the way Kepa handles being dropped compared to how Lukaku does. 

Why is Ziyech not in the squad?
