Now we have dedicated DM's in our ranks so I think we will go 4 at back. If WHU don't have a pacy winger Disasi could play right back. Gusto however is the natural pick there.

It is not very clear to see how this game goes. I think we should have the ball more but if it is congested in WHU area the game will be much different to Liverpool match.

I will play Gallagher as a 10 behind Jackson. Sterling as lw and probably murdyk as rw.

We played 4231 against pool.

Hope we line up this way:

Sanchez

Disasi - Silva - Colwill - Chilwell

Caicedo - Enzo

Sterling - Chukwumeka - Mudryk

Jackson

In attack it will look like this:

Sanchez

Disasi - Silva - Colwill

Caicedo - Enzo

Sterling - Chukwumeka - Mudryk - Chilwell

Jackson

Come on Chels!

Could start Caicedo at right back and play lavia beside Enzo.Caicedo has played there for Brighton last season at times and done well.

Sometimes, we also played 3 at the back at times with Colwill playing a sort 9f hybrid left CB/wing back position dependent on Chilwells position on the pitch.

Mudryk won’t pay on the right and therefore sterling won’t be on the left.

Carney for me as no 10 over Gallagher.

Be really interesting to see if we go with two man pivot, in which case, I think Moyes will attempt to overload midfield. 

We need to approach this with a determined and winning mindset. A few years of messing around - time to be ruthless again. 

Moyes will play 10 men behind the ball, we'll have no space to move into so will rely on Enzo and Chucky to find the right pass and Jackson to put himself about a bit. Will need the likes of Sterling, Chilly and Mykky (if he plays) to pick up the scraps.

It was 4231. 

You want to use defensive shape as formation because offensive shape tend to change a lot.

I want my 10 to crash the box more. I thought Jackson was quite isolated last week.

If no murdyk on the right then murdyk on the bench with carney as lw will be my preference.

It's 100% nailed on that Moyes will have every man and his dog behind the ball. The challenge will be to find ways through.

The danger will be Bowen on their right if they can counter.

Match day.....COME ON YOU BLUES !

It’s a shame England women didn’t win the World Cup and all that, but have to be honest…this is the game I want to see a win in most anyway. Come on you blues 

Mudryk and Madueke start

What? We have Caicedo and Lavia now, costing near 175mill, and we stick with Gallagher and Carney in midfield after a sh*t draw?

What the actual feck is that?

So is Pochettino or Potterttino picking the team?

Edited August 20, 20232 yr by axman2526

Pretty uninspiring team, would've liked a back 4 against West Ham. Should be enough to get past these though.

they've not even been here a week. Need to learn what the rest of the players have spent all summer getting accustomed too. I imagine they both feature off the bench.

Well ... that`s a bit disappointing.

Definitely didn't need the extra defender in that team, but looks like Poch doesn't want to rush Caicedo into the team just yet, we'll probably see him come off the bench at some point.
