could be 

azpi - silva - cucu

Reecey - Jorginho - Kovacic

Mount- Havertz -Sterling

             Auba

One weird lineup in defence. 
Jorgi at LWB, making good use of his pace 😏

I will save my judgement of Potter, but that XI is certainly not a good start. You have £110m of CBs on the bench with Azpilicueta, who has been sh*t, starting in their place. Baffling choice. 
 

*No disrespect to Dave*

Azpi as centre back with Koulibali, Fofana and Chalobah as subs??? 
 

If it is Azpi and Silva as the centre backs we have no pace whatsoever!

might be 3-3-3-1 

4-3-3 with Azpi as CB doesn't make much sense

Certainly makes me want to watch. That's a funny line up. 

Initial positives:
- Havertz with a strike partner OR Mount in a midfield three
- Cucurella as left-back seems to make more sense than Cucurella as wing-back
- Pulisic deservedly not starting

Initial negatives:
- Mendy apparently injured
- Seems that at least one of Havertz and Mount are playing wide again
- Pulisic in the matchday squad

Absolutely baffling decision regarding the centre backs....

could be 4-2-2-2 as well 

Havertz- Mount

Auba- Sterling 

 

i think it's still a back 3

Nevermind 

Potter has already found Pulisics best position in just a week with the team.

Potter in.

Hoping for a good and exciting performance to mark the dawn of a new era even if it isn't one that fills me with optimism.

he is the one with the emotional intelligence degree

makes sense to play the most influential player in his first and only match in the coming 2 weeks 

Have to be careful on conceding set plays, that lineup lacks height

If Chelsea lose tonight it’s got to be Potter out. Potter can’t afford to get off to a losing start.

3-1 Milan

I think everything from a 0-3 loss to  5-1 win is possible.

Does make one think about how Potter used to deploy Solly March

that's a 4-4-3 if you count Kepa as integral part of the back 3 which he is 

Van Gaal does that for example (counting the GK in the formation as in saying 1-3-4-3)

Prime Costa would be such a brilliant asset...

It seems we play with one CB.

maybe he plays Azpi because he can also play as a RB so he can switch formations easily

Hey  @Mod made any Pulisic bets today?

Not tonight, so you know what will happen

Who needs center backs when your playing free flowing football ?

Looking forward to another 90 minutes of dross, which I'll never get back. 

Well that is certainly an...interesting...first line up. 

Let's see how it works out.

No surprise Milan have put away Zagreb. That loss has already put our qualification hopes on a knife edge. Would not be so bad had we lost to Milan, but the 4th seed no hopers was damaging.
