I genuinely don't even see the point of watching tonight with that line up.

Valverde, Kroos & Modric will have him chasing shadows all game.

What’s the odds he gets booked within the first 20 minutes??

What the mother clucking hell is that starting XI, goals Frank, goals!!!!

Gallagher was very aggressive against Brighton. We need that today. 

Gallagher runs around like a headless chicken, always out of position leaving huge gaps the opposition can easily exploit...don't need Gallagher this game. We need players who can work hard, keep possession, but be under control and not go dashing off, getting drawn in chasing shadows which what happened against Brighton.  God love him for his enthusiasm and hard work...but not this game.

Wtf? We are 2-0 down and we are playing one attacker and that attacker is Havertz who doesn't even score goals. Comedy.

600m spent and that is what we are fielding ladies and gentleman. 

 

Wow! I was going to watch the game in the hope we could do something, where we expect goals from with that line up I have no idea!

I hate being so negative, but this season needs to end!

Just saw the line up someone make it make sense to me I don’t get it 

3-6-1???

Hey Lamps has copied Contes City away tactics, 5-4-1, with the one withdrawn to around the halfway line.

Could be worse guys and gals, at least Sterling and Felix are benched.

Lampard needs to have some dignity and quit management at this point.

If that line up is actually true then Lampard needs to be arrested

Who's still going to watch? 😂

We're 2-0 down why on earth are we using Conte's City tactics 😂, at least Conte tried to scrape a draw

No Words For That Lineup

So defensive from the off its a joke... lacks any sort of attacking ability 

I mean who goes up against Madrid needing a 3 goal swing... and plays 5 at the back which includes side show bobs rubbish younger brother (Cucurella) and then 3 naturally defensive midfielders, unless Enzo plays further forward.

Havertz is realistically our only attacking threat on that pitch. I'd back James to score over any other player in that midfield. How can we have creative players like Felix, Sterling, Mount, Ziyech, Mudryk, Pulisic and even Chuks on the bench.

I'd almost understand if we were 0-0 or 1-0 up and wanted to nick a goal to seal it but when 2-0 down? embarassing.

The f**ked up thing is we'd have stood a genuine chance in this tie with Bruno let alone Enrique.

I know he didn't want to stay but surely we could have convinced him?

One of the reasons I wanted Lampard out in 2021 is that I feared he would tarnish his legacy if we went down an embarrasing slide, looks like it might end up being the case this season

Maybe It's 4 At The Back, James In Midfield With Enzo Further Forward And Gallagher As A False 9 And Then f**k It I Dunno

We would've had a better chance with Todd Boehly on the touchline, I'm pretty sure anybody on this forum could have come out with a better line up than this

Wow....that is some line up. 

Lamps will either prove to be a tactical genius, or pilloried.

Trev, Connor + Kai as lone attacker is astonishing.

Chalobah at LCB is going under the radar aswell, he looks genuinely horrific whenever he plays in that zone.

What a line-up!  I don't know if I should laugh or facepalm 🤦‍♂️

Ahha that's it, Trev is playing as our number 9!

On the bright side we can get knocked out now and save the utter embarrassment of facing City in the semi finals. 

I'd sack Lampard before he leaves the stadium. Team is better off manager less at this rate.
